Description
Currently, there is no way to identify that an asset is nuclear certified, reimbursable or mission critical when opening a work order. Fleet analysts and mechanics need a simple way to distinguish assets that are identified as nuclear certified, reimbursable or mission critical to properly direct and perform maintenance actions.
Recommended
Add three fields with drop down selections on the Maint Asset screen. The fields can be located on the Basic or Vehicle Characteristics tab. The Field names and drop down selections will simply have the options Nuc Cd "N" for nuclear, Remb/Refd "4" for reimbursable/5 for refundable" and Msn Crt "C" for mission critical. Fields will be blank or N/A for the conditions that do now apply. The field name and codes "N", "4 or 5" and "C" will reflect on the basic work order tab when opening a work order and the technician work order when printed. See attachment which details basic requirement. Additionally, all fields (to include cost centers) need to be easily identifiable when pulling a Maint Asset inquiry or a work order/sub work order inquiry.
Mission Critical
Critical. It is imperative that a technician know if a vehicle is certified to handle nuclear cargo or not. Nuclear certified assets have additional rules that governs maintenance; requiring the technician an easily identifiable indicator on the work order to stay in compliance with AFI 63-125, Nuclear Certification Program. Furthermore, it is imperative that Vehicle Management have an easily identifiable indicator and inquiry that an asset is refundable or reimbursable in order to recoup sustainment funds from an outside organization monthly as well as the ability to easily identify mission critical assets.
Benefits
Benefits of implementing this change includes saving research time when opening a work order, potential of performing maintenance improperly on a vehicle and decertifying it's nuclear certified status. It will also, save time trying to identify refundable/reimbursable assets as well as improve accuracy of financial reporting per AFI 24-302, para 4.20 "Ensure Reimbursable units are coded correctly and perform follow up actions for financial recoupment."
