4. Military Aviation Repair and Maintenance
25th October 2011
Pre-Conference Workshops
Work shop A - 09:30 – 12:30
TRAINING CURRICULUMS - THE KEY TO FUTURE MRO SUCCESS
Many assets utilised by the Air Force are requiring ever more technical MRO procedures and combined with the added pressure
of faster turnaround times provides a very challenging environment in which to work. The needed for a sustained high level of
training to enable individuals to carry out these procedures puts huge strain on the ability of a team to continually evolve. A look
towards the future potential of technology in the classroom will help further develop the functionality of all units.
Benefits of attending:
Learn through an interactive dissection of the revered case study of the F-22 maintenance training plan which will
teach you how best to utilise your assets (personal) worth
Discuss why there is a need for a strong focus on continual development of the current training schemes, with a
look to improving future strategy
Ensure that you are updated on future development to further enhancement of the value of MRO strategy, to
guarantee not only technological advances are implemented correctly into the curriculum but that suitable
provisions are made for future development
Confirmed: Travis W. Osborne, Chief, Training Technology Requirements Branch USAF.
Workshop B – 13:30 – 16:30
IMPROVED SUPPORTABILITY THROUGH OBSOLESCE MANAGEMENT
With the average age of the Air Fleet continually increasing the challenges associated with managing these aging platforms is
set to increase. Along with the added pressures of a raise in cost and expertise needed to keep these assets available the
problems caused by Obsolescence are the most difficult to tackle. The need for strategic management to efficiently confront the
problems associated with inadequate life cycle management, supply chain issues and maintenance and repair efforts will
continue to dictate the success and availability of the fleet.
Benefits of attending:
Learn how the implementation of emerging technology will enhance efficiency of supply chain and assist in the
management of aging platforms
Develop you strategic plans through an interactive discussion of the best use of current management methods - how
can you further improve the plans that are currently set in place
Discuss how you can achieve a future increase in efficiency and decrease in cost can be achieved
Confirmed: Components Obsolescence Group.
