The US Department of Defense is partnering with industry and academia on an initiative to advance the state-of-the-art in powertrain component diagnosis, repair procedures, and replacement techniques and timelines to improve equipment readiness and optimize lifecycle costs. Key focus areas will include methods to quickly diagnose, collect and analyze failure data and determine the most cost effective and time sensitive repair or replacement options to get the equipment back to operational status.

Specific objectives include:

Develop criteria and processes to determine level of repair or replacement of powertrain components
Conduct performance and load test after powertrain repair and replacement
Identify critical supply chain shortfalls impacting powertrain repair and replacement
