Aims of OWSS
 OWSM is a strategic contract framework that ensures
maintenance and support remain at the highest level of
effectiveness and efficiency for the life of the aircraft.
 OWSM focuses on increasing aircraft availability and reducing
costs by bundling fleet maintenance and support services
under broader-scoped, longer-term, performance-based
contracts . This approach allows aircraft to receive the highest
possible levels of service efficiency while maximizing industries
delivery of fleet support.
 Reduce Support Costs by 15% in first 3 years of the contract

OBSOLESCENCE MANAGEMENT
ILS/LSA Engineering identifies obsolete parts using
Reference Number Category Code (RNCC) and Reference
Number Variation Code (RNVC) by accessing databases
prepopulated by OEMs.
Proactively monitoring potential obsolete parts enables
successful obsolescence management; i.e., life time
purchase, re-engineering, modifications or capability
development.

ELE STUDIES
Preliminary Work: LSA Engineering helps customer to
determine Fleet / Study Assumptions.
ELE Scope: Repairable Parts Analysis; Basic Vehicle
Analysis; and Review of High Usage Critical Parts.
Implementation: LSA Engineering supports the
implementation Phase evaluating / adjusting any deviation
from the forecast.

ASSET MANAGEMENT
• Asset Managers are to maximize the ongoing effectiveness,
efficiency and economy of their designated systems.
• Managing aging systems - taking the appropriate action
whenever logistics support analysis indicate performance
criteria is reaching unacceptable levels.
• Prioritization of LSA recommendations
• Inventory rationalization
• Manage from concept to in-service and beyond
 Modifications
 Alternate parts
 Repair schemes
• Salvage of parts from BER equipment
• Integrator – LSA, SCM, Engineering, subcontractor /
supplier

AGING AIRCRAFT SUPPORT
ASSET MANAGEMENT
• The future presents the aircraft receiving a new life via the
ASLEP.
• The AMS and Engineering team continues to evolve aircraft
maintenance with these life changes. For example, new
fasteners, new sealants, new structure all have to integrate
and work with existing OEM airframe systems.
• The AMS work with a wide range of industry partners to
make sure the equipment is supportable into the future.
• Budget cuts mean leaner inventories, requiring the AMS
team to surgically salvage retiring CP140’s with DND and
contractor AMO’s.
• As component through put at R&O contractor’s and USN P3
influence decreases, with the supply chain management and
engineering staff they develop and locate alternate repair
schemes to maintain operational availability.
