• Description
  Description:

  Maintenance Schedules do not have an option to accommodate 2-year, 3-year, etc., inspection requirements.

  
  

  Recommended:

  Recommend creating a new Yearly type of recurring method for Maintenance Schedules, it could be Selected Month by Year. Recommend adding to account for inspection requirements of 2, 3, 5, and 10 years. Recommend the ability to select the day and the month and the interval of years for the Maintenance Schedule (i.e., 1 January every 2 years).

   

  Mission Critical:

  Mandated, There are several inspections required by manufacturers of equipment that are beyond a year. Many assets require a 2, 3, 5, or 10 year inspection to be completed.

   

  Benefits:

  There are several inspections that are on a biannual, 3 year, 5 year, or in some cases 10 year basis. It would greatly benefit the enterprise if Work Orders for these inspections were guaranteed to generate on the required day, regardless of when the last inspection was completed. This ability would ensure assets do not inadvertently fall off their inspection cycle. Currently the only way to create a Maintenance Schedule for more than one year it to use the Every X Days recurring method. This method does not guarantee a Work Order will generate on the same day every time it is due, as it generates the next Work Order based of when the previous Work Order was Completed. While it is possible to have Maintenance Schedules generate Work Orders before the Asset Next Maintenance Date, that still does not guarantee that a Work Order will generate on the first of the month that it would be due.  

   

  Users:

  This will affect all Aviation Support Equipment (AvSE) users within the Maintenance and Utilization (M&U) module.  It may affect users in other Site IDs if they have inspections based on yearly increments.
