Hi,

We perform complex heavy aircraft maintenance. During this maintenance, we plan for alot of the maintenance, and identify thousands of non routines that needs to be corrected. Quite a few corrections/fixes for planned maintenance or non routines will trigger the need to perform tests after the maintenance is completed.

I.e.: If we replace an electrical circuit, this will trigger the need to perform a test of that specific circuit when we reach the phase of “power on”. If we during the same maintenance replace a circuit breaker on the same circuit, the same test may be triggered again.

We are trying to find somewhere in IFS Cloud where we can create this list of tests.

Wishlist:

  • It would be nice if the list is populated by both planning before maintenance, and triggered by non-routines reported during maintenance.
  • Preferably it’s available after maintenance is concluded. The aircraft maintenance is closed before the aircraft leaves the hangar, and this is before it is powered on
  • We do not register hours, parts or tools during these tests
  • If same test is triggered several times, it would be nice if the duplicates are identified and perhaps even removed
  • We need a link from the tests to the activity it’s created from (planned work or non routine)

We have considered using Maintenance Order with ELS enabled, and trigger the tests from a sub task linked to an execution phase called tests. But this requires alot of manual work, and the test needs to be finished before the Maintenance Order structure is completed.

 

Any tips?
