Change Request: Process Improvement
Description:
The current 244 extends the scheduled inspection (III) section to the second page if the equipment has more than 4 inspections and does not have a Supervisory Review Section. The text generated for some sections auto-filled are small text and hard to read due to the length of the description and no wrap text feature.
Recommended:
1. Remove the "Continued" portion of Section II and move the existing section III (Scheduled Inspection) up. Allow fixed 18 total rows in Section 3 allowing every other row to be filled with scheduled inspection data. Allow Text Wrap to increase font size for easier readability.
2. Immediately following section III, add "Section IV. Supervisory Review" section with 3 rows and 6 columns for users to write their Employee No./UserID and date.
3. The present Section IV. Discrepancy, will become Section V.
Mission Critical:
T.O. 00-20-1 states that the supervisory review is a Group Commander option and currently, numerous bases require this review. AFI 21-101 also requires certain career fields to document a periodic Supervisory Inspection.
Benefits:
1. This will prevent certain equipment forms from unnecessarily printing out a 3 page form, wasting paper and ink.
2. The wrap text will allow larger font, making it easier to read in often less-than-optimal conditions.
3. Will allow documentation of Supervisory Reviews without having to create a maintenance schedule/work plan/work order for this simple task.
Frequency: Daily
Users:
Thousands. This will be used by all AF users of M&U.
