From system analysis to recommendations for maintenance requirements

When dealing with the obsolescence of a naval subsystem in order to extend its service life, it is essential to carry out a preliminary analysis of the system as a whole, in order to correctly anticipate and plan maintenance requirements.

From a document analysis to an audit of support services and an expertise visit on board of the vessels carrying the equipment, DIAGOBSO© is a complete tool to plan the maintenance of a system.

ALSEAMAR then summarizes its recommendations in two documents: a detailed obsolescence criticality matrix for equipment and components, and an obsolescence management strategy report.
