This study covered the aircraft rework, overhaul and remanufacture processes at the six Naval Air Rework Facilities (NAVAIREWORKFACs) and identified those processes which were most costly in the performance of organic naval air depot level maintenance. Concerned with the logistical aspects of Naval Weapons Systems and the need to increase productivity within the Naval Air Industrial Community, the study focused on application opportunities related to manufacturing processes, methods, techniques and equipment associated with manufacturing technology functional categories. For the items being reworked, those elemental or sub-elemental operations which were most costly (viz, cost drivers) were identified, ranked by aggregate cost for all NAVAIRREWORKFACs, assembled within a data base, and presented in the Final Report. Conclusions and recommendations resulting from the study are presented. (Author)
