Overview

The Programmed Depot Maintenance (PDM) Simulation project was conducted at Ogden Air Logistics Center (OO-ALC) to help the workload transition team assess the facility, manpower, and flow-time implications of expanding OO-ALC’s current PDM workload. In particular, OO-ALC was interested in determining the impacts of adding the A-10 maintenance workload, which is currently supported at Sacramento Air Logistics Center (SM-ALC), to OO-ALC’s current F-16 and C-130 workload. Planned closure of the Sacramento Air Logistics Center (SM-ALC) motivated OO-ALC’s exploration of ways to fulfill the A-10 maintenance mission.

The products of this effort provided the workload transition team with the assessment capability needed to anticipate the effects of workload change and successfully bid for, acquire, and fulfill A-10 maintenance requirements without degrading F-16 and C-130 maintenance process performance. The products of the effort included analysis results, a Workload Transition Testbed (WTT) analysis tool, and project documentation.
