The proposed solution is designed to directly support the USAFs Complex of the Future goals including 100% data availability, increased (quality) part availability, an efficient depot, and an effective workforce. It will enable 100% data availability through, not only the collection of the ATE health and test results data via a dedicated ATE network, but the aggregation, analytics, and search capabilities of a central data repository. The increased efficiency of the depot can be realized through the integration of Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) methodologies that can be built upon the new data repository. The solution will promote an effective workforce by lessening the overall demands of data collection through the reduction of the required manual data collection effort and time. Finally, increased quality part availability can be achieved in three ways. The first way is through the increased availability of the ATE itself.The second is through the accurate historical tracking of ATE operational quality and individual serialized parts being evaluated. The third way is through the use of an untapped data source contained within many of the ATEs.
