Maintenance Planning Process - Marine Corps Systems Command

Maintenance Planning Process NarrativesField Support Subsystem PhaseTitle: Complete Fielding EvaluationBlock Reference Number: FSS-03Objective: The objective of completing a Fielding Evaluation is to ensure that alldeficiencies of the fielded system that are observed by OPFORRES areconsidered by the appropriate MCSC Log IPT for action. When actioned in aprompt manner, the support subsystems in question can be improved and/orreplaced sooner, increasing system performance and reducing the cost ofownership.Risks: When Fielding Evaluations are not completed in a timely manner by theappropriate MCSC Log IPT, informed decisions can not be made by MCSC LogIPT leading to ineffective support subsystems remaining in the field longer thandesirable. This leads to increased cost of logistics, spares and overallmaintenance and ownership. Additionally the systems often lack the desiredperformance, which will reduce the warfighters capabilities. It is also likely thatany opportunity to impact TOC-R will be missed.Responsibility: It is the responsibility of the OPFORRES to ensure that FieldingEvaluation forms are filled out completely and accurately and forwarded to ILSO.Involvement of Others: OPFORRES, OEM/contractor/PSI if necessary.Mechanisms: N/AInputs: Any observed deficienciesOutputs: Fully supported, effective and efficient weapon systemTiming: Immediately following any observed deficiency of fielded system.Distribution: OPFORRES, OEM/Contractor/PSI, and Archive to MCLEDR.Preparation: See Fielding Evaluation process.3/15/2006 Page 3 of 6 Flowchart Control MPP V2.1
