PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

AMSAA Sample Data Collection and Analysis

C.1. INTRODUCTION

This Performance Work Statement (PWS) describes the requirement for performance of Sample Data Collection and Analysis (SDC&A) services on selected models of Army aviation equipment (rotary, winged, and unmanned aerial systems), ground combat systems, tactical wheeled vehicles, and ground support equipment.

The Army SDC&A Program involves three types of data collections:

The first type captures data during field training exercises (FTX). Generally, a sample of select equipment from a Brigade Combat Team (BCT) or Combat Aviation Brigade (CAB) is captured during the entire rotation of the exercise. The duration of an FTX typically ranges from two weeks to three months.

The second type captures data on select equipment on a continuous basis for an indefinite period of time.

This may include unit deployments in support of Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO).

The third type includes special, short-term field information tasks designed to support Army Staff, Combined Arms Support Command (CASCOM), Program Executive Offices (PEO), Program Managers (PM), and Life Cycle Management Command (LCMC) requirements that do not dictate a full-scale SDC&A project. They may also be used to augment selected Army Staff objectives, but will not duplicate other ongoing efforts.

The contractor shall collect, maintain, and deliver required data elements for the SDC&A program. Data elements are used for multiple analyses, including repair parts analysis, identifying reliability and maintainability characteristics of equipment over the life cycle, providing assessments of fleet health, analysis of component life, and providing data for estimating Army studies for Manpower requirements.

Figure 1. AMSAA Organizational Chart. Sample Data Collection and Analysis (SDC&A) is a respo Field Studies Branch within the Logistics Engineering and Analysis Division.

The U.S. Army Materiel Systems Analysis Activity (AMSAA), is the Headquarters, Department of the Army (HQDA) Responsible Official for the Army SDC and Analysis ( administering the program as prescribed in Army Regulation 750 operational tempo (OPTEMPO), and all specified on maintenance man-hours) performed on Army ground systems and aviation systems at the weapon system platform/serial number level of detail. This includes vehicle health data on ground vehicles. Army Regulation 700 138 states, “Empirical data generated by SDC&A offers the most extensive maintenance/logistical information available. Because of the high confidence level of the data, it is used by materiel developers and readiness analysts to identify, target, and fix equipment deficiencies that adversely feedback to participating units on a recurring basis, as well as lessons learned to all users and maintainers of equipment in the SDC&A program. This provides an essential link between the users, maintainers, and developers for rapidly identifying and correcting equipment and logistical deficiencies that impact readiness.”

These data are collected on a non-interference basis with operational units worldwide during FTX, garrison activities, and contingency operations. Comprehensive quality control/assurance of the baseline data is performed, and appropriate corrections are made within the SDC&A dataset to allow for the most accurate analyses as possible.

Requests for SDC&A data and analysis are routin operational units to influence ongoing planning and decisions. Examples of requests include: materiel system non mission capable rates; part replacement cost/frequency drivers; readiness drivers, seasonal/environmental trends; system and component reliability trends; vehicle aging trends; logistical impacts of add-on-armor; and usage data, root cause, special studies and fleet health assessments.

The SDC&A program also includes ground vehicle operational Health and Usage Monitoring (HUM) and Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) data collection and analysis. AMSAA provides critical health and usage monitoring system data and analysis to maintainers, comm Development of algorithms will continue to identify vehicle issues and help predict impending failures.

The U.S. Army Materiel Systems Analysis Activity (AMSAA), is the Headquarters, Department of the Army (HQDA) Responsible Official for the Army SDC and Analysis (SDC&A) Program, and has full responsibility for administering the program as prescribed in Army Regulation 750-1. The SDC&A program requires the capture of operational tempo (OPTEMPO), and all specified on-item maintenance data (e.g., actual part replaceme hours) performed on Army ground systems and aviation systems at the weapon system platform/serial number level of detail. This includes vehicle health data on ground vehicles. Army Regulation 700 d by SDC&A offers the most extensive maintenance/logistical information available. Because of the high confidence level of the data, it is used by materiel developers and readiness analysts to identify, target, and fix equipment deficiencies that adversely impact materiel readiness. SDC&A provides feedback to participating units on a recurring basis, as well as lessons learned to all users and maintainers of equipment in the SDC&A program.

interference basis with operational units worldwide during FTX, garrison ency operations. Comprehensive quality control/assurance of the baseline data is performed, and appropriate corrections are made within the SDC&A dataset to allow for the most accurate analyses as possible.

Requests for SDC&A data and analysis are routinely received from senior Army leaders, support brigades, and operational units to influence ongoing planning and decisions. Examples of requests include: materiel system non mission capable rates; part replacement cost/frequency drivers; readiness drivers, OPTEMPO trends;

seasonal/environmental trends; system and component reliability trends; vehicle aging trends; logistical impacts of armor; and usage data, root cause, special studies and fleet health assessments.

A program also includes ground vehicle operational Health and Usage Monitoring (HUM) and Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) data collection and analysis. AMSAA provides critical health and usage monitoring system data and analysis to maintainers, commanders, users, testers, engineers, and LCMCs.

Development of algorithms will continue to identify vehicle issues and help predict impending failures.

A program also includes ground vehicle operational Health and Usage Monitoring (HUM) and Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) data collection and analysis. AMSAA provides critical health and usage anders, users, testers, engineers, and LCMCs.

Development of algorithms will continue to identify vehicle issues and help predict impending failures.

Development of health indicators and prognostic algorithms will continue through multiple data sources. Each algorithm will be capable of predicting and providing significantly earlier warnings of failure than current warning indicators on major assemblies. AMSAA will also utilize data acquisition systems to monitor other items of interest, to include but not limited to electrical power consumption of vehicles and generators. The AMSAA HUM program results in significant benefits, such as: identification of readiness drivers, avoiding a non-mission capable day through prognostics; preventing an accident through improved situational awareness; better understanding of the condition of a vehicle prior to dispatch; continuous product improvement; influencing condition-based RESET; and cost avoidances/savings. RCM data collection provides AMSAA with validated and verified root causes of failure, failure modes and effects information at the platform either when it is currently undergoing maintenance or preceding an anticipated component failure.

The SDC&A program requires collection and verification of data in support of the SDC&A additional mission to provide independent logistics analysis and provide the Army with materiel analyses to detect systemic materiel issues and develop actionable recommendations derived through Soldier feedback, technical and statistical analyses, and direct observation. The SDC&A research and analysis component of this program develops and delivers comprehensive mitigating and corrective courses of action for systemic materiel issues on wheeled, tracked, engineer, materiel handling, weapons, and ground support equipment using data-driven analyses. The methodology used for this program consists of onsite data collection; problem definition; technical research; root cause analysis;

solution and mitigation strategy development; corrective action implementation; and disposition tracking.

Products developed by AMSAA include: product improvement analysis; physics of failure analysis; failure mode and effect analysis; root cause analyses; systems performance and effectiveness analysis; quality deficiency exhibits;

field advisory reports; and special studies upon request. The SDC&A research and analysis capabilities are a valuable asset to the Army's program managers, the Army Materiel Command, and to operational forces. The results of SDC&A efforts influence improvements to engineering design, reliability, maintainability, quality, safety, and training, and generate millions of dollars in cost avoidance/savings/quality.

The results of the SDC&A program data collection effort must be complete and of the highest possible quality, as the products of the SDC&A Program are used by HQDA staff, PEOs/PMs, AMC, TRADOC, FORSCOM, CASCOM, and (most importantly) operational commands and units.
