Five Naval Aviation Depots overhaul most of the engines that power the Navy's airplanes and helicopters. In fiscal year 1989, the depots performed depot level maintenance on over 2,200 engines. This work generated revenues of about $243 million, or about 14 percent of the depots' revenues from all programs. The depots are industrial fund activities operating under the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR). Industrial fund activities, established by the Department of Defense with the approval of the Congress in 1949, use working capital funds rather than annual appropriations to finance the cost of goods and services provided to customers. The customers use annual appropriations to reimburse these activities for work performed. The financial goal of industrial fund activities is to break even, that is, to cover costs without experiencing a gain or loss. The Navy's operating forces are the depots' primary customers for the engine repair program. On the basis of the needs of these forces, NAVAIR determines engine depot maintenance requirements and administers the repair program. (SDW).

The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) is an independent agency that works for Congress. The GAO watches over Congress, and investigates how the federal government spends taxpayers dollars. The Comptroller General of the United States is the leader of the GAO, and is appointed to a 15-year term by the U.S. President. The GAO wants to support Congress, while at the same time doing right by the citizens of the United States. They audit, investigate, perform analyses, issue legal decisions and report anything that the government is doing. This is one of their reports.

This project focuses on the J52-P408 engine repair process and the implementation of the "AIRSpeed" program at the Aircraft Intermediate Maintenance Department (AIMD) at Naval Air Station Whidbey Island (NASWI), WA. The project was conducted with the sponsorship and assistance of Program Executive Office Ships (PEO SHIPS) and Program Executive Office Integrated Warfare Systems (PEO IWS). The goal of this project is to analyze how the leadership of AIMD incorporated Theory of Constraints (TOC), Just in Time (JIT), Lean, Six-Sigma, and Lean-Six-Sigma methodologies in the engine repair process, and examine the effects of its application in relation to repair cycle time and overall readiness level. This report will describe and compare the earlier and the current AIRSpeed engine removal and repair processes, starting from the flight line to the ready for issue (RFI) pool at AIMD. Using simulation modeling tools and private industry production and inventory management philosophies, we will make recommendations for further improvement in the repair process. We will examine how the application of AIRSpeed processes contributes to the mission readiness of the United States Navy and Marine Corps fleet of EA-6B Prowler aircraft, while reducing operation and maintenance cost.
