Centralized Analysis for CBM Enabling Technologies
ABSRACT
Engineering Software Reliability Group (ESRG) has been assisting the U.S. Navy in utilizing a maintenance process which enhances condition assessment processes for HM&E operations and maintenance. This process began by equipping ships to continuously collect engineering plant performance data for use in a Condition-Based Maintenance environment. Today, the digitized performance data is accessible in real-time to shipboard operators and on the world-wide-web for shore-based personnel. Access to this data is enabling the U.S. Navy to obtain unprecedented situation awareness of the health of their propulsion plants and auxiliary equipment. Furthermore, the quality and accessibility of this data will eliminate the critical delay of detailed engineering performance analysis. All performance analysis evaluations will be provided on a continuous basis, which will have a direct impact on maintenance scheduling, remote troubleshooting, life cycle management and more.
It is the vision of ESRG to provide operational and maintenance organizations with a common and repeatable method of interpreting and communicating engineering performance data. Having access to centralized equipment performance data, combined with the real-time performance analysis of fleet wide conditions, will enable operation and maintenance communities to take advantage of real-time actionable performance information to make critical operational and maintenance decisions.
