PMO - Preventive Maintenance Optimizer
·Recommends Preventive Maintenance (PM) for certain system components having increasing failure rate versa time
·Calculates optimal Mean Time Between PM (MTBPM) for each recommended PM
·Creates optimal combinations of blocks that should simultaneously be maintained to reduce the system total down time, assembly, transportation and packaging cost
·Selects multiple MTBPM for blocks having different PM frequencies and combines together their PM, if it is profitable
·Satisfies required Availability, Mission reliability, MTBF, PM free interval (PMU) and PMU reliability (PMU survival probability). In case a requirement cannot be achieved, PMO calculates maximal achieved requirement for the above values
·If there are more than one PM schedule solution satisfying these requirements, PMO selects the solution with the minimal total cost. This cost includes preventive and corrective actions as well as replacement, transportation, packaging, spare purchase and storage. It also includes system down time damage and non-system environmental damage
·PMO allows users to define one of 6 distribution types (Exponential, Weibull, Lognormal, Uniform, Pareto and Rayleigh) with their parameters, for each lowest system component. Using these distributions PMO calculates MTBF for all blocks taking into account reducing failures quantity due to preventive maintenance implementation
