Virtually all USAF tactical fighter and interceptor units work under the AFR 66-5 decentralized POMO concept for aircraft maintenance. This thesis used an aggregation of maintenance data from five ADTAC Fighter Interceptor Squadrons spanning periods preceding and following POMO implementation. Hypotheses reflecting POMO's intended effects on maintenance productivity and quality were then statistically tested using the Analysis of Variance, Duncan'S Multiple Range Test, and the Large Sample Test of Significance. The final research results showed that conversion to POMO generally improved aircraft maintenance performance in the ADTAC FISs, but not to any great extent. These findings may possibly be generalizable to other USAF tactical air force operations. (Author)
