Talk:Maintenance, repair and operations

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I think this is the best title for this general subject. There are redirects at maintenance and repair to feed the odd link to them to this page. I envision a nice long article on this topic which many people make a living doing. The Mil Spec material is useful temporarily but just to work from. User:Fredbauder

[edit] Production Planning and Control

An MRO agency or an Airline Operator also engaged in in-house maintenance of Aircraft and its components requires to PLAN its maintenance (Production) activities on the aircraft/components and also Control the operations to achieve an optimum level of Maintenance at a reduced cost but not at the cost of the Safety.

Aircraft should be operational and gainfully flying most of the time after meeting all quality control/maintenance requirements.

PPC (Production Planning and Control) is a functional setup to achieve the above goal. An organisation which effectively employs this setup will have less painful surprises during its operation and will be prepared for such eventualities.

PPC uses varied Technicques and Methods depending on the situations and requirements. These can be elaborated.
