If no arguments, scan the current project for maintenance management systems, readiness data, and logistics configurations. ============================================================ PHASE 1: MAINTENANCE SYSTEM DISCOVERY ============================================================ Step 1.1 -- Maintenance Information Systems Search for maintenance data systems: - CMMS/EAM: Maximo, GCSS-Army, NALCOMIS (Navy), G081 (Air Force), DPAS - Readiness systems: DRRS (Defense Readiness Reporting System), SORTS - Technical data: IETM (Interactive Electronic Technical Manuals), TOs/TMs - Supply integration: DLA, GCSS, FEDLOG, HAYSTACK - Configuration management: MASIS, VAMOSC, OSMIS - Condition monitoring: ICAS (Navy), IMDS (Air Force), ULLS-G (Army) Step 1.2 -- Weapon System and Platform Inventory Map the maintained asset population: | Platform/System | Designation | Quantity | Avg Age | OPTEMPO | Maintenance Level | Current Readiness | |----------------|------------|---------|---------|---------|-------------------|-------------------| Maintenance levels: Organizational (O-level), Intermediate (I-level), Depot (D-level) Step 1.3 -- Maintenance Organization Structure Map the maintenance organization: - Organizational maintenance: unit-level tasks, daily/weekly inspections - Intermediate maintenance: component repair, calibration, on-equipment repair - Depot maintenance: overhaul, rebuild, major modification, tech insertion - Contractor Logistics Support (CLS) vs. organic maintenance ratio - Performance-Based Logistics (PBL) arrangements and metrics Step 1.4 -- Maintenance Standards and Policy Identify applicable standards and directives: - MIL-STD-882E (System Safety) - MIL-STD-1388-1A/2B (Logistics Support Analysis) - MIL-STD-3034 (Reliability-Centered Maintenance) - Service-specific: NAVAIR instructions, AR 750-1, AFI 21-101 - DoD Directive 4151.18 (Maintenance of Military Materiel) - ASD/Sustainment metrics and reporting requirements ============================================================ PHASE 2: READINESS ASSESSMENT ============================================================ Step 2.1 -- Readiness Metrics Calculation Calculate key readiness indicators: - **Mission Capable (MC) Rate**: % of time platform can perform at least one assigned mission - **Full Mission Capable (FMC) Rate**: % of time capable of all assigned missions - **Partial Mission Capable (PMC) Rate**: MC minus FMC (degraded capability) - **Not Mission Capable (NMC) Rate**, broken down: - NMC Maintenance (NMCM): awaiting maintenance action - NMC Supply (NMCS): awaiting parts/material - NMC Both (NMCB): both maintenance and supply issues - **Operational Availability (Ao)**: MTBF / (MTBF + MDT) Step 2.2 -- Readiness Trending Analyze readiness trends over time: - MC rate by month/quarter for last 24 months - Trend direction: improving, declining, or stable - Seasonal patterns (deployment cycles, fiscal year effects) - Comparison to DoD/service readiness goals - Readiness drivers: top 5 systems/components causing NMC time - Comparison across fleet (unit-to-unit readiness variation) Step 2.3 -- Readiness Drivers Analysis Identify root causes of readiness shortfalls: - Top 10 NMC drivers by platform (system, WUC, work order type) - NMCS top drivers: parts availability, procurement lead time, DLA stock levels - NMCM top drivers: skill shortages, technical data gaps, tool availability - Cannibalization rate and impact on fleet health - Deferred maintenance backlog and growth trend Step 2.4 -- Readiness vs. OPTEMPO Correlation Assess the relationship between usage and readiness: - Flying hours / steaming days / operating miles vs. MC rate - Breakpoint analysis: OPTEMPO level where readiness degrades sharply - Maintenance man-hours per operating hour (MMH/OH) trend - Resource requirements at current vs. programmed OPTEMPO ============================================================ PHASE 3: RELIABILITY-CENTERED MAINTENANCE (RCM) ============================================================ Evaluate RCM implementation per MIL-STD-3034: Step 3.1 -- Failure Mode Analysis Review failure patterns across the fleet: - Top failure modes by frequency, severity, and detectability - MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) by component and system - MTTR (Mean Time To Repair) by maintenance level - Failure distribution patterns: infant mortality, random, wear-out - Age-reliability relationship: which components benefit from time-based replacement? Step 3.2 -- Maintenance Task Analysis Evaluate current maintenance task effectiveness: - Scheduled maintenance tasks: are they preventing failures? - Correlation between PM compliance and unscheduled failure rates - Tasks with no correlation to failure prevention (candidate for interval extension) - Missing predictive tasks for failure modes with detectable degradation - Maintenance-induced failures (maintenance actions causing new problems) Step 3.3 -- Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM+) Evaluate CBM+ implementation per DoD CBM+ Guidebook: - Condition monitoring sensors deployed: vibration, oil analysis, thermal, acoustics, HUMS - Diagnostic capability: can the system identify what is failing? - Prognostic capability: can the system predict when failure will occur? - RUL (Remaining Useful Life) estimation accuracy - Integration with maintenance planning and supply systems - Data collection, transmission, and analysis pipeline Step 3.4 -- RCM Optimization Recommendations Identify maintenance strategy improvements: - Time-directed tasks that should convert to condition-based monitoring - Run-to-failure candidates (low consequence, random failure, no predictive indicator) - Interval adjustments based on reliability data (extend or shorten) - New predictive technologies applicable to top failure modes - Redesign candidates: components with unacceptable reliability and no effective task ============================================================ PHASE 4: MAINTENANCE RESOURCE OPTIMIZATION ============================================================ Step 4.1 -- Workforce Analysis Assess maintenance workforce adequacy: - Manning levels vs. authorization (fill rates by MOS/NEC/AFSC) - Skill level distribution (apprentice, journeyman, master) - Training pipeline health (throughput, backlog, qualification currency) - Cross-training and multi-skill utilization - Contractor vs. military maintainer ratio and cost comparison Step 4.2 -- Parts and Supply Chain Analyze repair parts availability: - Supply response time (from order to receipt) by urgency code - Back-order aging and fill rates - Demand forecasting accuracy (actual vs. predicted consumption) - Repair vs. replace optimization (LORA - Level of Repair Analysis) - Retrograde and repair cycle time for reparable items - Stock positioning optimization (forward deploy high-demand items) Step 4.3 -- Depot Maintenance Analysis Evaluate depot-level maintenance effectiveness: - Depot turnaround time (TAT) by system and induction type - Depot capacity utilization and throughput rates - Organic vs. commercial depot repair mix - Depot maintenance cost per item vs. procurement cost (repair economic analysis) - Depot induction forecasting accuracy Step 4.4 -- Maintenance Facility and Equipment Assess support infrastructure: - Special tools and test equipment availability - Hangar/shop capacity vs. workload requirements - Environmental compliance (hazardous material, waste disposal) - Aging infrastructure impact on maintenance capability - IT infrastructure supporting maintenance operations ============================================================ PHASE 5: CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT ============================================================ Step 5.1 -- Configuration Baseline Assess configuration identification and control: - Configuration baseline documentation (functional, allocated, product) - Configuration Item (CI) identification completeness - As-built vs. as-designed configuration alignment - Serial number / tail number tracking accuracy - Technical Order / modification compliance status Step 5.2 -- Modification Status Accounting Track modification and upgrade status: | Modification | TCTO/ECP | Fleet Applicability | % Compliance | Deadline | Impact | |-------------|---------|--------------------|--------------| ---------|--------| Step 5.3 -- Configuration Audit Evaluate configuration audit practices: - Physical Configuration Audit (PCA) frequency and findings - Functional Configuration Audit (FCA) compliance - Software configuration management (versioning, patch management) - Configuration discrepancy resolution process and backlog - Interface control document (ICD) currency Step 5.4 -- Technical Data Management Assess technical data adequacy: - Technical manual currency (aligned with current configuration) - Illustrated Parts Breakdown (IPB) accuracy - Maintenance allocation chart completeness - Repair procedure adequacy (feedback from maintainers) - Digital thread maturity (3D models, AR maintenance support) Write the complete analysis to `docs/defense-maintenance-analysis.md` (create `docs/` if needed). ============================================================ SELF-HEALING VALIDATION (max 2 iterations) ============================================================ After producing output, validate data quality and completeness: 1. Verify all output sections have substantive content (not just headers). 2. Verify every finding references a specific file, code location, or data point. 3. Verify recommendations are actionable and evidence-based. 4. If the analysis consumed insufficient data (empty directories, missing configs), note data gaps and attempt alternative discovery methods. IF VALIDATION FAILS: - Identify which sections are incomplete or lack evidence - Re-analyze the deficient areas with expanded search patterns - Repeat up to 2 iterations IF STILL INCOMPLETE after 2 iterations: - Flag specific gaps in the output - Note what data would be needed to complete the analysis ============================================================ OUTPUT ============================================================ ## Defense Maintenance Analysis Complete - Report: `docs/defense-maintenance-analysis.md` - Platforms analyzed: [count] - Readiness metrics calculated: [count] - Failure modes assessed: [count] - Improvement recommendations: [count] ### Summary Table | Area | Status | Priority | |------|--------|----------| | Mission Capable Rate | [Meeting/Below/Critical] | [P1/P2/P3] | | RCM Implementation | [Mature/Developing/Ad-hoc] | [P1/P2/P3] | | CBM+ Deployment | [Operational/Piloting/None] | [P1/P2/P3] | | Parts Availability | [Adequate/Constrained/Critical] | [P1/P2/P3] | | Configuration Mgmt | [Current/Gaps/Non-compliant] | [P1/P2/P3] | | Workforce Readiness | [Adequate/Strained/Critical] | [P1/P2/P3] | ### Readiness Improvement Roadmap Prioritize actions by readiness impact: - Immediate (0-30 days): parts expediting, maintenance priority adjustments - Short-term (1-6 months): CBM+ deployment, PM interval optimization - Medium-term (6-18 months): workforce development, depot capacity improvement - Long-term (18+ months): system redesign, technology insertion, PBL restructuring NEXT STEPS: - "Run `/defense-supply-chain` to evaluate parts supply chain supporting maintenance." - "Run `/defense-budget` to align maintenance investment with readiness outcomes." - "Run `/risk-simulation` to model readiness impact of budget or supply disruptions." DO NOT: - Do NOT access or display classified readiness data or specific operational capabilities. - Do NOT recommend maintenance changes that bypass technical authority (NAVAIR, AMCOM, AFLCMC). - Do NOT ignore cannibalization as a readiness indicator -- high rates mask deeper supply issues. - Do NOT conflate maintenance man-hours with maintenance effectiveness -- focus on outcomes. - Do NOT recommend cost cuts without quantifying readiness impact -- readiness is the primary output. ============================================================ SELF-EVOLUTION TELEMETRY ============================================================ After producing output, record execution metadata for the /evolve pipeline. Check if a project memory directory exists: - Look for the project path in `~/.claude/projects/` - If found, append to `skill-telemetry.md` in that memory directory Entry format: ``` ### /defense-maintenance — {{YYYY-MM-DD}} - Outcome: {{SUCCESS | PARTIAL | FAILED}} - Self-healed: {{yes — what was healed | no}} - Iterations used: {{N}} / {{N max}} - Bottleneck: {{phase that struggled or "none"}} - Suggestion: {{one-line improvement idea for /evolve, or "none"}} ``` Only log if the memory directory exists. Skip silently if not found. Keep entries concise — /evolve will parse these for skill improvement signals.
