Maintenance Planning Process NarrativesField Support Subsystem PhaseTitle: Apply Corrective Action As NecessaryBlock Reference Number: FSS-05Objective: The objective of Applying Corrective Action is to ensure that alldecisions related to the correction of support subsystems that respond to FieldingExperience Evaluations, are implemented. This will ensure that any deficienciesfound in weapon system or system supports are corrected, support subsystemperformance(s) improve and the cost of ownership is reduced.Risks: When Corrective Action is not implemented, it can lead to an increasinglack of interest on the part of OPFORRES to complete Fielding Evaluation forms,and will result in ineffective support subsystems remaining in the field longer thandesirable. The support subsystems performance will not meet the warfightersneed and the cost of ownership will be higher than desirable. This may alsoresult in less than adequate support for the end item. Failure to apply correctiveactions will also translate into missed TOC-R opportunities.Responsibility: It is the responsibility of the ILSO with heavy participation of theMCSC LOG IPT to ensure that all Corrective Action is implemented.Involvement of Others: OPFORRES, OEM/Contractor/PSI, and LOG COMMechanisms: N/AInputs: Fielding Evaluation Reports from OPFORRESOutputs: Fully supported, effective and efficient weapon systemTiming: Immediately following decisions from evaluation of Fielding ExperienceFeedback.Distribution: OPFORRES, OEM/Contractor/PSI, and Archive to MCLEDR.Preparation: See procedures for implementing changes to fielded supportsubsystems.3/15/2006 Page 5 of 6 Flowchart Control MPP V2.1
