This Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) provides guidance for the design of an integrated vehicle health management (IVHM) capability that will extend the vehicle’s inherent design to enable health management of the platform and its components. This guidance is technology-independent; the principles are generally applicable to the majority of potential IVHM design scenarios, including “clean sheet” system design, where IVHM is considered as a primary design consideration, and the retrofit design, where existing systems are modified and leveraged with the IVHM capability. In either case, this ARP provides guidance for designing the IVHM capability from the feasibility assessment to the conceptual design analysis and to the development design phases, with considerations given to trade studies, metrics, and life cycle impacts. Integrated vehicle health management (IVHM) systems are increasingly being designed and incorporated on different aerospace platforms, but very little guidance exists for the systems engineering aspects of IVHM design. This document provides information and guidance to system program managers and IVHM developers for the IVHM design process. This document can serve as a framework from which to develop specific design plans as an integrated part of the overall IVHM systems engineering process.
