USAF Maintenance Today Is Reactive
Broken Aircraft…Now Fix It
“Fly to Failure” results in REACTIVE Maintenance!
USAF Mx is Reactionary and Disconnected...Placing Risk on the Mission!
Today’s Toolbox built forTime-Based, Stagnant
Inspections
NEED TROUBLESHOOTING SUPPORT?Separate request must be issued
Today’s Data Capture Manual & Delayed
Manual entry after long work shifts = data integrity issues
NEED ENGINEERING SUPPORT?Another separaterequest must be made and wait until it’s processed
NEED A PART?Separate request and process and another waiting period...PLUSdiminishing supply and obselence issues
Maintainer as man in the loop =

CBM+ Tools & Tool Kit DevelopmentIssue: Today, SPOs have little or OEM-controlled access to their on-board flight data and have limited fleet trending capabilities.
Solution: Giving SPOs the organic ability to trend & analyze on-board diagnostic data – faster and easier!ü Enables organic capability to extract, store
and trend on-board data (reduces dependencies on OEMs)
ü Complete history by tail #, fed from field Mxü Improves response time to 107s/202sü Supports model- and usage-based
algorithms ü Enables TRUE life cycle management

Data Integrity ImprovementIssue: Current TO tools lack interactivity, are manpower intensive, and do not direct input into authoritative data systems
Solution: Maintenance Digital Data Viewer (MDDV)
