Reliability Characteristics and Related Documents
MPC 3 allows you to define reliability characteristics and other details for the systems, subsystems, subsubsystems and parts included in the analysis. The software contains the complete list of ATA system and subsystem numbers and descriptions for you to select from and also provides quick and easy utilities for defining subsubsystems and parts. You can also attach "Description and Operation" documents for specific components.
- MPC 3's Item Maintainability and Reliability Data Entry window allows you to specify reliability details and other relevant information for the items in the system hierarchy and also includes built-in logic, based on the ATA MSG-3 guidelines, to help you determine which components represent Maintenance Significant Items (MSIs) in the analysis.
- You can import, create, edit and manage "Description and Operation" documents for items in the system hierarchy. These D&O documents will be attached to the analysis and included in the MSG-3 report output. MPC integrates with Microsoft Word for the creation and management of these documents.
