Abstract

The assessment of logistic supportability (Test S-E) is an integral part of the operational test and evaluation (OT&4) process. this report provides the Operational Test Director guidance for conducting this assessment. Because of terminology problems, aviation sysetms are not addressed. Test S-4 includes the following test elements: Adequacy of the integrated logistic support plan; Adequacy of the maintenance plan; Evaluation of technical manuals; Evaluation of special test equipment; Completeness/consistency of periodic maintenance manuals; Evaluation of initial outfitting list; evaluation of maintenance requirements cards; Evaluation of maintenance time; and Evaluation of logistics effectiveness.
