The digital avionics information system (DAIS) life cycle cost (LCC) study provides the Air Force with an enhanced in-house capability to incorporate LCC considerations during all stages of the system acquisition process. This report documents a reliability and maintainability (R&M) model developed in the study and also serves as a users manual. The R&M model, a training model, and a cost model comprise the DAIS LCC impact model (LCCIM) designed for use in LCC analysis of avionics systems. In this context, its primary function is to manipulate input data banks to produce intermediate products, figures of merit, and outputs required by the training and cost models. When used in a stand-alone mode, the R&M model provides a means for analyzing the R&M impact of changes in system design and maintenance concepts on system support requirements.
