Operational-Mission-Oriented Method for Equipment Support Resource Verification

Abstract:

With elaborating the research evolvement of equipment support resource verification, this paper demonstrated the significance of operational mission to this research. It decomposed Equipment Support System (ESS) into three subsystems: operational mission system, support object system and support resources system. According to the theories of Integrated Logistics Support, the overall parameter model was established to depict the relationship and impact mechanism of ESS’s components. Focusing on the key parameter: mean logistic delay time (MLDT), this paper proposed a transformation model to convert operational mission requirements to equipment support requirements.Transformation model can predict and ascertain all support resources needed to accomplish operational mission scientifically.
