Advance Maintenance Planning and Schedule

Advance Maintenance Planning and Scheduling (AMPS) performs an integral role in reducing maintenance turnaround time and increasing system availability. The virtues of well-executed maintenance planning and scheduling are well documented. One reason for implementing the maintenance planning and scheduling process is because it can be an effective method to leverage real-time health and status data of the mission system, significantly increasing maintenance productivity. When the occurrence of a failure is discovered while the mission is still underway, maintenance resources can be prepared in advance. The capability to prepare maintenance resources in advance requires the implementation of AMPS and a maintenance planner to facilitate that process.
