The US Department of Defense is partnering with industry and academia on a multiphase initiative to demonstrate how applied Integrated Product Support (IPS) strategies, analytics, and agile support operations can provide effective management solutions for defense and commercial industries. The overall objective is to identify data sectors to lower product support costs, while
simultaneously developing capabilities and processes for improving IPS performance using dashboards and metric data.

Phase V will be focused on enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of IPS for a specific aircraft platform by leveraging advanced data analytics and strategic process improvements. This phase aims to develop and implement robust analytics tools that incorporate alternative process scenarios to provide actionable insights that improve supply chain resilience.

Specific objectives include:

  • Monitor, analyze, and report performance metrics, identifying trends, gaps, and opportunities for improvement
  • Evaluate and improve processes, procedures, and sustainment readiness
  • Assess supportability and resolve parts constraints; develop action plans to ensure improved availability of critical parts
  • Create and maintain dashboards, reports, and tracking systems; provide actionable insights; and deliver targeted recommendations to reduce lead times, strengthen performance metrics, and enhance audit compliance
