STANDARDS REQUIRED FOR THE AIRCRAFT AND ENGINE PROGRAMS

Ref: (a) NAVAIRINST 13023.1A

(b) NAVAIRINST 5220.16B

1. Purpose. To outline procedures and responsibilities for the development, preparation, review, and approval of the workload and material standards package required annually for use in negotiating aircraft and engine unit standards and cost.

2. Cancellation. FRCEASTINST 5200.6C.

3. Summary of Changes. Updated references, competency titles and codes.

4. Background. The Fleet Readiness Center East (FRC East) is required to prepare and submit packages containing proposed aircraft and engine labor standards, material prices, and turnaround (TAT) times to the Commander, Fleet Readiness Centers (COMFRC) per references (a) and (b) . This task is performed annually on aircraft and engines by type/model/series (TMS) as reflected in the annual COMFRC guidance letter. It is essential that all data contained within these packages be as accurate as possible since they form the basis for workload and prices negotiated by facility representatives at the Workload Standards (WLS) Review Conference with COMFRC and Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIRSYSCOM). A close, united effort of all responsible persons is required to ensure that all factors are recognized and incorporated in its development.

5. Responsibilities

a. Director of Operations (Code 6.0DB)

(1) Serves as the central point of contact in communicating COMFRC guidance.

(1) Assign personnel to support development efforts.

(2) Ensure that development and review milestones are met.

(3) Review and endorse the workload and material standards contained in the proposed package prior to submission to the Commanding Officer for approval and signature.

c.

Team.

The FRC East Workload and Material Standards Development This team, composed of the Engine & Aircraft Workload

Standards Managers and the Material Pricing Manager from the Capabilities, Operations Planning and Sustainment Branch (Code 6.3.1), and other support as needed, will:

(1) Prepare the workload and material standards following the guidelines contained within enclosure (1) of reference (a) and the annual guidance letter from COMFRC.

(2) Accomplish specific tasks peculiar to functional assignments and relating to development of proposed workload standards, material standards, and turnaround times.

(3) The Workload Standards Manager(s) will act as development coordinators and ensure that the workload standards data packages are completed in the format specified in chapters III and IV of enclosure (1) of reference (a) and transmitted to COMFRC within the assigned timeframe. The points of contact (name, code, and extension number) will be provided to all concerned. Responsibilities include the following:

(a) Correlate workload standards with application of the performance index.

(b) Convene workload standards development team meetings during the development cycle.

(c) Provide a matrix to display variances from the previous fiscal year.

(d) Notify and coordinate the efforts of all departments for upcoming data requirements.

(e) Coordinate, collect, and assemble aircraft and engine data by TMS and input the data and technical requirements for each aircraft/engine within the negotiation period.

(4) The Material Pricing Manager will:

(a) Ensure that material requirements are based on accurate DIFMS history.

(b) Apply current Naval Supply Weapons Systems Support, Defense Logistics Agency and local prices to the material requirements to establish a material standard (before escalation, part of this development and review process).

(c) Ensure that the FRC East's proposed workload and material standards package reflects current facility level repairable item management policy and practices.

(d) Provide information on the changes in material policies and their impact on workload and material standards.

(e) Prepare and maintain historical usage bills of material.

(f) Make historical usage bills of material available to Bill of Material maintainers.

(g) Provide a member to the FRC East workload and Material Standards Development Team.

d. Industrial & Logistics Maintenance Planning/Sustainment Department (Code 6.7)

(1) Develop a specification for each TMS and subprogram (repair category) considering RCM concepts.

(3) Project timeframes for incorporation of new technical directive that will affect man-hours.

(4) Provide justification for work content increases and decreases that result from specification.

(5) Participate in Work deck to Specification reviews as required and directed by COMFRC to review consistency in interpretation and application of the specification between cognizant field activities (leader) and participating field activities for dual-sited products.

(6) Work with the Reliability and Maintainability Branch (AIR-4.1.10.5) to compile feedback of product life cycle history information and maintenance philosophy for each TMS and subprogram (repair category) to use as the technical base.

JUL 3 1 2014
