Maintenance Operations

Maintenance Operations
2
Principles of Maintenance

• Maintenance performed at level best qualified,
  responsive cost effective
• IAW MAC chart
• Repairs beyond organic capability delivered to
  next level
• Unit level performed before evacuated
• Controlled exchange used to support maintenance

3
Levels of Maintenance

• Unit Maintenance Maintenance which an
  organization has authorization responsibility
  to perform on its own equipment.
• Subdivided into
• first level (operator)
• second level (trained maint. personnel)

4
Levels of Maintenance (cont)

• Direct support performed by TOE or TDA units
  responsible for DS
• return to user basis
• Technical assistance to unit maintenance elements
• Repairable exchange of serviceable items for
  unserviceable

5
Levels of Maintenance (cont)

• General support maintenance support provided on
  an area basis
• Overhaul at this level
• Equipment repaired returned to supply system
• return to user beyond DS
• Repair part stocked for GS maint

6
Levels of Maintenance (cont)

• Depot performed by TDA industrial activities or
  Commercial contracts
• Rebuild beyond GS capability
• Workload programmed budgeted annually by
  wholesale level
• Rebuilt materiel returned to wholesale supply
  system

7
Evacuation Repair Eligibility of Materiel

• Maintenance beyond units capability evacuated to
  next higher level
• TI done before evacuation
• to determine extent of repairs
• classify item as economically uneconomically
  repairable
• detemine if condition was from other than normal
  wear or combat damage.

8
Evacuation Repair Eligibility of Materiel (cont)

• Estimate the cost of repair
• Direct labor
• Direct materials
• Indirect or overhead costs
• Contractual services
• shipping costs

9
Evacuation Repair Eligibility of Materiel (cont)

• Condition codes used to classify equipment
• A - serviceable (without qualifications)
• B - serviceable (with qualifications)
• F - unserviceable (repairable)
• G - unserviceable (incomplete)
• H - unserviceable (condemned)

10
PLL Definitions

• PLL list of authorized repair parts to be
  on-hand or on order
• support daily maint operations for a prescribed
  number of days
• demand supported, non-demand supported, and
  initial stocked items
• managed by AR 40-61, DA PAM 710-2-1

11
PLL Definitions (cont)

• Initial Fielding List (IFL) support kits
  developed and fielded concurrently with DEPMEDS
• managed individually by TAMMIS or DA Form 3318,
  Record of Demands
• retention for 2 years without being demand
  support (can be extended by authorization from
  USAMMA)

12
PLL Definitions (cont)

• Combat PLL parts stocked for unit maint in
  combat/prescribed of days
• Mandatory Parts List (MPL) minimum stockage
  essential for use during wartime
• published in TB 8-6500-MPL
• TOE units with organic maintenance must stock MPL
• D D60 Guard Reserve also

13
Items Authorized for PLL/Combat PLL Stockage

• PLL consists of
• items quantities designated as initial stockage
• demand supported items control period
• Active - 180 days, USAR - 360 days
• Other non-demanded supported items when
  authorized by 1st general officer in chain of
  command

14
Items Authorized for PLL Combat PLL Stockage
(cont)

• PLL consists of (cont)
• parts for commercially designed equipment based
  on local experience
• if authorized to perform next level maintenance
  may contain those
• Basic Issue Items (BII) parts packed with
  equipment

15
Items Authorized for PLL Combat PLL Stockage
(cont)

• Combat PLL consist of items quantities
  prescribed by MPLs
• Items consumed in maintenance (bench stock)
• ordered stocked on usage basis
• stocked 7 days supply
• no PLL records required unless part of PLL basic
  load

16
Initial Stockage of PLL

• Initial stockage level determined by
• U.S. Army Materiel Readiness Support Activity
  (USAMRSA)
• U.S. Army Medical Materiel Agency (USAMMA)
• Guidance for requesting assistance in paragraph
  8-5, Chapter 8, of DA Pam 710-2-1

17
Initial Stockage of PLL (cont)

• Upon receipt of PLL data
• prepare process DA Form 2063-R
• prepare a DA Form 3318 for each line authorized
  for stockage. Use stockage code MS
• request initial stockage of PLL

18
Non-Stocked Item Demand File

• Definition separate file of DA Form 3318s used
  to record demands for parts not part of units
  PLL to determine if parts should be stocked
• Items must meet stockage criteria
• 3 demands in most recent 180 days
• 3 demands in most recent 360 days

19
Non-Stocked Item Demand File (cont)

• Items meet criteria can be moved DS
• Unit commander decides to stock
• if added, use ACWT for stockage level
• prepare DA Form 3318
• file 3318 in PLL file, at to 2063-R, order
• if not added, write Commander does not desire to
  stock this item continue to track

20
Non-Stocked Item Demand File (cont)

• Maintenance of 3318
• 1st demand prepare 3318, post demand, order item
  record request on 2063-R, file in NIIN sequence
• 2nd subsequent demands, post demand to 3318,
  line out demands out side of control period,
  review to see if item qualifies for DS

21
Authorized Stockage List (ASL)

• MEDLOG Battalions operating under AR 40-61 as
  SSAs will provide Class VIII to all TOE units in
  their area
• Re-supply of Class VIII will sustain essential
  maint operations
• ASL shows items that are proven to be
  sufficiently active to warrant stockage
  regardless of demand

22
Authorized Stockage List (ASL)

• ASL managed in a stock record account to show
  receipt, issue, and asset status of materiel
• Repair parts stocked to re-supply unit level
  requirements for MEDLOGs organizational mission

23
Function, Concept, and Objective of TAMMS

• Function provide DA commanders with info -
  effectiveness of maint policies, procedures and
  actions

• Equipment Record Folder-appropriate TAMMS forms
• DA Form 2408 Series-historical record
• DA Form 2407-Maintenance Request

• NMCS NMC because of supply
• 2406 broken into organic or support
• NMCS time recorded on back of 314

29

  in FMC condition
• Possible Time of days equip is on hand during
  reporting period
• day item is gained is counted as day
• day item is lost is not counted as day

30
Mission Capability (cont)

• Deficiency defect that makes item, system,
  subsystem inoperable(NMC)
• Shortcoming fault requires maint supply action,
  does not make (NMC)

31
Purpose of Readiness Reporting

• Readiness determined by reporting actual status
  to established standard
• Deficiences identified to detemine MC time
  frame to achieve
