S3000L - Logistic
Support Analysis
Introduction
With the introduction of new and
complex technical products, a proper support system must be made available in a
timely manner. This requires an extended analysis process to ensure
consideration of logistic requirements during the design of the product and to
support the establishment of a proper support system. The process includes a
number of analysis activities concerning a wide range of technical/logistic
considerations and the careful documentation of the results of these analysis
activities. The achievement of proper supportability is of crucial importance
concerning operation and life cycle costs. Early consideration of logistic
aspects is increasingly important with regard to both operational and economic
aspects. A product that cannot be operated and maintained properly and cost effectively
is not acceptable to the operator.
Purpose
The specification S3000L is
designed to cover the activities and requirements governing the establishment
of the LSA process.
§ It provides rules for the establishment of the product system breakdown
and for the selection of LSA candidate items to be analyzed in detail
§ It describes type and methodology of performance of the specified
analysis activities
§ It gives guidelines on how to process the results of the analysis tasks
and on how to achieve a cost-efficient support concept
§ It covers the interface to the customer within the LSA process
§ It covers the interface between the LSA process and the support
engineering areas
(eg reliability, maintainability and testability)
§
It covers the interface
between the LSA process and the ILS disciplines, which provide the typical
logistic ILS products:
-Personnel and training requirements
-Supply support
-Technical data services
-Special support and test equipment
-Facilities and infrastructure requirements
-IT support requirements
S3000L specification
development history from 2006 to the present day
The development work was
allocated in the year 2006 to an international team of experts working under
the joint chairmanship of AIA and ASD representatives. The following companies
and organizations contributed to the work:
AgustaWestland |
United Kingdom |
Airbus Deutschland |
Germany |
Boeing |
United States |
Dassault Aviation |
France |
EADS Casa |
Spain |
EADS Military Systems |
Germany |
Eurocopter |
France |
LOGSA |
United States |
MBDA |
France |
Saab AB |
Sweden |
UK MoD |
United Kingdom |
The final draft of the
specification S3000L (Issue 0.1) was officially published in June 2009 at ASD
in Brussels. The main purpose of this publication was to enable experts from
interested companies and organizations to provide comments on the first
approach to the S3000L expert team. The commenting phase was officially closed
by end of 2009. More than 20 experts from different nations contributed with
their inputs to improve the final draft for the publication of the first
official issue 1.0.
|
In June 2010, issue 1.0 of
S3000L was released. With the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding
between ASD & AIA at the Farnborough Air Show in July 2010, the ASD/AIA
ILS Council was formed and the ILS community implemented a new platform
for harmonization and coordination of the different ILS specification
activities. In November 2010 the kickoff of the S3000L Steering Committee
(S3000L-SC) took place in Washington, the first official SC meeting will be
in April 2011.

maintenance
An ongoing maintenance process
for S3000L is required to ensure the continued development of future issues of
the specification. As an initial approach, the maintenance process will be
realized by providing a commenting template on this website.
Any questions or suggestions for
improvement can be forwarded to the S3000L Steering Committee. For this purpose
please download the Change Proposal
template (also applicable for any request for clarification). A
guide for the completion of this form can be downloaded here Change
Proposal Instructions.
Please forward the completed
template to the following European or US chairman of the ASD/AIA S3000L
Steering Committee:
