Logistics Support plays an important role during development and utilization of a fighter aircraft. In the past, the logistics support activities had been mainly managed through paper based solutions. The shift to a computer based logistics support system assisted in quick analysis of the logistics record for supportability assessment and plan for alternatives. During the same time, the evolution of Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solutions provided framework for exchange of engineering knowledge through effective configuration control, facilitating reduction in development/induction lead time. The need to reduce the developmental cycle time and the total cost including maintenance and support, and enhance the performance and reliability of the product led to the collaboration between PLM and logistics support systems. The PLM systems were extended to knit the engineering knowledge closely with the knowledge of logistics support, bringing the total lifecycle of an aircraft under configuration management. The integrated approach, also termed as Integrated Logistics Support (ILS), helped to define the performance and reliability objectives in the early stages of the program for the development of a maintenance friendly fighter aircraft with necessary support in place. The increased operational reliability thus led to innovations in the military aircraft contracting. The recent past has been witness to a novel contracting methodology known as Performance Based Logistics (PBL). Under PBL contracting, the Mission Capable Rates are defined at the design phase itself, and the obligation to keep the equipment in the operation ready state, over its serviceable life, rests on the manufacturer.This paper presents the requirements that must be considered for implementing ILS. Furthermore, the paper presents a conceptual PLM based enterprise framework that records failure data, analysis undertaken and the corresponding corrective actions. The suggested conceptual model has provisions to record the logistics support related data, i.e. Logistics Support Analysis Record (LSAR), in the format compliant with the standards followed worldwide. LSAR would draw its input from engineering activities as much as from logistics support activities. A systematic and comprehensive analytical study, i.e. Logistics Support Analysis (LSA), can be conducted on an iterative basis on the LSAR data, through all lifecycle phases of the product development to achieve the laid down availability and maintainability objectives. The proposed ILS will allow the subject experts in the areas of design, manufacturing, maintenance planning, maintenance execution, provisioning, support equipment and personnel training to give their inputs throughout product development. The system shall facilitate assessment of the Life Support Cost (LSC) at the early phase of the program and streamline the logistics and spares required to support the product till the end of its serviceable life.
