Background -- Military service implementation of predictive maintenance was limited from 2002 to 2022 -- Predictive maintenance can work, but miitary services lack performance evaluation -- Military services have identified and begun taking steps to address challenges to predictive maintenance -- Conclusions -- Recommendations for executive action -- Agency comments and our evaluation -- Appendices. |
| Summary |
DOD is continually challenged to provide battle-ready ground combat systems, ships and submarines, and aircraft to its warfighters, spending nearly $90 billion each year on weapon systems maintenance. To improve availability of weapon systems, DOD is implementing predictive maintenance. Often used in the private sector, predictive maintenance relies on personnel to use condition-monitoring technology and data analytics to schedule maintenance based on evidence of need. GAO examined the extent to which the military services have (1) implemented and (2) assessed the performance of predictive maintenance, and described (3) challenges and efforts to address challenges with implementing predictive maintenance. GAO is making 16 recommendations to the Army, Marine Corps, Navy, and Air Force to develop plans to implement predictive maintenance and assess its performance. |
