-[ PREFACE
I [Materiel readiness is the end product of tileArmy's logistic system. It is a yardstickfor comparing alternative courses of actionto determinc the one yielding the required
level of readiness in the most efficient andeconomical manner.
Current operations in Vietnam offer an un-Srusual opportunity for a side-by-side compari-
I son of aircraft maintenance concepts, methods,and results in the ROAD Divisions, The FirstCavalry Division (Airmobile), and the inde-
pendent aviation companies, as the basis forselecting the field maintenance concept bestI [adapted to Army operations in the field.
The APJ approach was to assess comparativereadiness and utilization relative to the re-sources required in terms of personnel, equip-rent and parts. Although the entire mainte-I nance chain is significant, guidance from theDCSLOG Project Officer properly emphasizedthe role of the DS level. Available analysisI effort was, therefore, focused on those tashsleading to recommendations for the best wayto accomplish field level support. Detailed
L" attention was given to DS level because of itsdirect impact on aircraft readiness: GS is
considered only insofar as readiness is di-rectly affected.
This study, in support of DA Project 35, ispart of a sequence in which a series of in-dividual tasks are undertaken, each having adirect payoff to the Army in terms of increased
. readiness. Grateful acknowledgment is madefor the support of Mr. J. P. Cribbins, DCSLOG !Project Officer, and of the Commanders andmen of the aviation units in Vietnam.

SUMMARY
"OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study is to accom-plish, in the context of recent Armyexperience in Vietnam. a comparativeevaluation of the three principal con--"cepts of Direct Support level aircraftmaintenance:
1. The Conventional Direct Support (DS)concept as employed by the ROADInfantry Divisions,
"2. The Airmobile concept as employed bythe 1st Cavalry Division (Airmobile),
3. The DS Detachment concept as practiced"in the aviation companies of the 1stAviation Brigade.
T Findings and recommendations derived from
this evaluation are furnished to provide-: bases for decisions on the optimum con-
"cepts for this important aspect of manage--- ment of Arnmy Aviation resources.
"-• These concepts are analyzed in terms of:
1. Effectiveness, as reflected in reportedtt •aircraft readiness and utilization.
2. Efficiency of support operations asIndicated by NUOAR (Not OperationallyReady, Maintenance) rates, NORS (NotOperationally Ready, Supply) rates,supply performance and ratio of man-Ii power to aircraft supported.

3. Investments in resources to include :equipmecnt, personnel, facilitiets,and parts stockage.
This Report describes the structure of theproblem, the evaluation parameters, andthe results of the analysis.
SCOPE AND DATA BASE
The basis of this study program is an anal-ysis of the Army Aviation operations andmaintenance supply support within theUnited States Armny Vietnam, with particularemphasis on the Ist Cavalry Division (Air-mobile), the 1st Infantry Division, theDS Detachments and supported helicoptercompanies of the 1st Aviation Brigade, thetwo Aerial Surveillance Companies and theDS and CS companies of the 34th GeneralSupport Group (AM&S). The study coversdata ac-quired and observations and inter-views accomplished during 1966 and 1967.
Additionally, this study, has been closelycompared with the work accomplished by theArmy Concept Team in Vietnam (ACTIV). TheACTIV Study, performned concurrently andindependently, has led to conclusions whichare consistent with those reached herein.
Major emuphasis was given to establish astrong factual basis for the findings andconclusions reached in this study. Inputsfromn APJ field representatives in Vietnam,the analysis of the Daily Aircraft StatusRecord forr,s (RI and R3) and the APJ databank of Army Aviation Vietnam experiencewere utilized.

The DA Forms 1352 (Army Aircraft FlyingTime and Status Report) provide d a com-plete and authoritative measure. The"continuing command emphasis on the qualityof this form has produced a measure whichis highly reliable and precise. Carefully"sampled DA forms from the TAERS system,ASL/PLL supply performance reports, list-I ngs of AMMC and 34th GS Group (AM&S)were stratified to measure the cost andeffectiveness of the respective concepts.
* TFINDINGS
The following are key findings resultingfrom this study.
1. The Detachment concept for providingDirect Support maintenance to Armyaircraft in Vietnam was found to besuperior to both the Airmobile concept(as exemplified by the operations ofthe 1st Cavalry Division, Airmobile),and the Conventional concept (asexemplified by the operations of aROAD Division) for the following reasons:
a. The Detachment concept produced con-sistently higher readiness rates, inspite of the fact that aircraft sup-ported by Detachments had a utiliza-
tion rate 12 percent higher thanaircraft under the other two concepts.The average readiness rates for detach-ment supported aircraft were higherfor the period as a whole, and ad-
ditionally were higher in 12 of the14 months studied.
"1-3
__ ___ __ __
b. The differential in operationalreadiness rates noted in a. aboveCan be attributed directly to themaintelMInee support conIcept, RSNORS rates were essentially the same-under each of the three concepts
studied.C. The Detacluaent concept provided a
higher level of maintenance responsive-
ness. The rate at which aircraft worereturned to service the same day theywent into maintenance was higher underthe Detachment concept than under theother two concepts studied. Thu over-all reaction time based on an analysisof responsiveness indicators alsoshowed the Detachment concept definitelysuperior.
d. The Detachment concept produced higherreadiness rates and better responsive-ness through careful selection of thetype of work performed. Emphasis atDetachment level was placed on rapidaccomplishment of short turnaroundwork, which provided maximum supportto aircraft readiness. Long turnaroundjobs and component repair were evacua-ted to higher levels.
e. The Detachments accomplished a highertotal percentage of all support levelwork required than either of the otherconcepts. Detachments accomplishedapproximately 90 percent of all supportlevel workload, as compared to slightlymore than 82 percent for the other twoconcepts. Thus, a high percentage ofsupport maintenance was brought to theaircraft, with lost time required fortransfer of aircraft to a maintenancesite held to a minimum.

Sf. Although the Detachment conceptrequired more direct productivepersonnel per maintenance equiva-lent than the other two concepts,the tota! number of personnel permaintenance equivalcnt was slightlylower. Administrative and housekeep-ing support provided by the suport-
T ed units reduced the requirement"for these types of personnel in dc-tachments.
g. Investmcnt costs in terms of supply"stockage, equipment and personnelfor the Detachment concept wereequal to or less than the other two"concepts.
2. Further reductions in the number ofoverhead and adoinistrative personnel"under the Detachment concept could beachieved by integrating the Detachmentsinto the supported unit organizations."Under this concept, overhead and adminis-trative support personnel required in De-tachments could be reduced substantially.
3. The number of line items contained in theASLs of U11-1 helicopter Detachments rangedfrom approximately 800 to 2200. No cor-relation could be found thiong the numberof line items in the .ASL and the supply
* performance of the Detachments in termsof NORS, demand accomnodation, and de-mand satisfaction rates. This situationindicated a need for evaluation of thepolicies and procedures used in establish-ing ASLs for Direct Support Detachments.
4. Because of the superiority of the Detach-"ment concept, as cited in Paragraph 1.above, this concept should be expanded toinclude Direct Support of Divisional air-"craft in Vietnam. The feasibility of ex-pansion of the concept to non-Divisional"units not currently supported by Detach-"ments, should also be studied.

5. 1:xpaiision of the D)etachmlcnt concept, ans.described in Chapter 10 of this Report,will requirc an inclrcasCd suthoriztionof approximately 200-250 personeCl formaintenance units in Victnam over thenumber authorized at the time of thisstudy. It is estimated that applicat. onof the concept of Integrating I)etachmentsinto the supported unit organizationstructure would resu]t in a total person-nel requirement somewhat less than totalauthorizations for maintenance units inVietnam at the time of this study.
6. Based on anticipated increases in air-craft readiness and utilization ratesresulting from expansion of the Detach-ment concept, mission requirements canbe met with fewer aircraft. Reductionsin the total numbers of aircraft requiredare estimated at approximately 6 percent.Application of this cost reduction factorto the investment cost for aircraft inthe Airmobile and Infantry Divisionsrecommended for inclusion under the De-tachment concept produces major dollarsavings.
RECOVIMEN DAT IONS
It is recommended that:
1. The Detachment concept be expanded toinclude support of Divisional aircraftunits in addition to the non-Divisionalcompany sized units now supported. De-tailed reconunendations for expansionof the concept are listed in Chapter 10.
2. A study be made to determine the feasibil-ity of expanding thu Detachment conceptto include non-Divisional aircraft unitsnot currently supported by Detachments.
1-6
II41 3. Consideration be given to integrating
Detachmennt- in.to the supportcd unitorganlization structure.
4. A detailed analysis be made of personnelsavings which could be made based uponintegration of I)etacl)Icnts and supported Iunits.
5. An analysis be made of policies andprocedures governing the establishmentof ASLs for Detachments In Vietnam,lead(ing to rccowmmcndations to producemore uniformity, better supply perform-ance and dollar savings.

Vietnam offers a unique opportunity to ob-serve and compare three of the most impor-tant concepts currently applied to thesupport of Army Aviation:
1. The "Conventional" aspect as embouied
in ROAD Divisions.

2. The "Air'mobil" l& support ConCept as--t--_
embodiud in the FirLnt Cavalry Divi-sion Airiiobi]e
3. The application of "'Maintenance De-
tachmcnts" in t hl independent unitsoperating under the USARV AviationCommand.
The non-divisional helicopter companies
designated as the Assault HelicopterCompany (U1i-I), and the Assault SupportHelicopter Company (CII-47) , as presentlyassigned to the Ist Aviation Brigade inVietnam, have DS maintenance detachmentsattached as described below. The Divi-sio,. I aircraft in Vietnam are supported
by a Transportation Aircraft Maintenanceand Supply Battalion in the 1st CavalryDivision (Airmobile) and by the Transpor-tation Aircraft Maintenance Company(Company E) of the Maintenance Battalionin the ROAD Infantry Divisions, whichwill be referred to as the Conventionalmaintenance concept.
THE CONVEINTIONAL MAINTENANCE CONCEPT
This maintenance concept has the followingM-laintcnancc major characteristics:Concept 1. The aircraft operating unit contains
within it the capability to perform,on-site, complete Organizational main-tenance. Principal maintenance func-tions performed include:
a. All scheduled and designated spe-cial inspections
b. Minor airframe repairs
2-2
c. Minor component replacomentd. Designated MWOs to airframe and
components.
"2. DS maintenance units, located in theDivision base or Corps support area,provide backup support to the oper-"ating units. The aircraft or compon-ents requiring work are normallyevacuated to the DS unit location, ex-(-pt as noted below. DS units normal-ally support several operating units,and are usually required to scheduleproduction according to their capa-bilities and workload. Principalmaintenance functions assigned to DSlevel include:
a. Major component build-up and re-placement
b. Minor component repairc. Extensive airframe repairs not
requiring jigs or complex align-ing equipment
d. Limited fabricatione. Designated special inspectionsf. Designated t5VOsg. Processing of aircraft to and
from supported unitsh. Overflow Organizational mainten-
ance workload from supported units,to include assista.ce in perform-ing major scheduled inspections.
DS units may provide maintenance teamsto supported units in forward areas toaccomplish, on-site, certain of theabove workload.
3. GS maintenance units, normally located.. in the Armay Support Command area, pro-
vide backup support to DS units. Work

and repairb. Minor component repair and over-
haulc. Major airframe repairsd. Designated major LWOse. Parts fabricationf. Overflow work from supported DS
units.
Organizational mYaintenance units con-centrate on inspections, minor repairsand replacements, and the preventivemaintenance designed to keep the air-craft flying. Most work is accomp-lished directly on the aircraft, withlittle work done on coml-n-..nts separatefrom the aircraft.
DS units provide the capability to domore extensive maintenance than at Organ-izational level. However, at DS mostwork is also done directly on the air-craft, with component work concentrated
primarily in the areas of removal and re-plncement. Work is normally evacuatedto the DS unit for performance.
GS units, unlike Organizational and DSunit;3, are designed to concentrate oncomponent repair and return. Work done
directly on aircraft normally z-onsistsof long turnaround airframe repairs andmodifications. The principal GS mission,therefore, is to support DS and Organiza-tional units through component repairprograms and relieve them of the
2-4
time and space consuming workload typi-lied by extensive crash and combat dama1 ,!
repairs, major modilications, and similar
work on whole aircraft.
.MaintcnanccOOrgani zation The Conventional concept, as indicated,
is typified by Corps Support LS Companiessupporting separate aircraft operatingunits, and by Division DS Compaiiica sup-"porting Division aircraft operating units.
In the ROAD Infantry Division, Direct Sup-pert maintenance is accomplished by the"Transportation Aircraft Maintenance Companyof the Maintenance Battalion organized"under TOE 55-89E. This Company has lessthan the capability of the standard Corpslevel DS Company and requires backup DScapability for its peak loads, in addi-tion to General Support backup.
"The supply function in the Infantry Divi-Supply sion is principally limited to its own
maintenance operations and assistance onemergency supply requirements of supportedunits. It has no authorization for a shopsupply element and normally is authorizedto maintain only a 3-day stockage levelfor its own maintenance requirements. Itsmain support platoon requisitions stockPnd processes aircraft items required for"the DS maintenance function. in Vietnam,the standard organization has been aug- Imenited,at least in one Division with a"supply platoon which performs a DS supply
function similar to that of the backupDirect Support Company.

IITIlE AIRlMOBILE,1 DIVISION MAINTENANCE CONCEI7
The Airmobile concC1 ,, iz similar to theConventional concept in many respects.However, only major differences will beemphasized inl this discussion.
As with the Conventional concept, threeNainitcviiaice levels of maintenance are included inConcept the Airmobile Division concept. However,
the extent of work accomplished at eachlevel differs. The Airmobile conceptrequires that the Division, includingits maintenance units, have a capabilityfor rapid deployment through the use ofArmy aircraft. To insure this, mainten-ance capability and functions performedat Organizational maintenance level areless than under the Conventional concept.Aircraft requiring maintenance which re-quire downtime beyond approximately twentyfour hours (except periodic inspections),is passed to the DS unit to accomplish.l/Tools and equipment provided are light-weight and limited to the extent of main-tenance to be accomplished. Maintenancepersonnel are assigned in fewer numbersthan in Conventi:.nal units, as will bediscussed later.
1/ The "four-hour rule" was used as theguideline for evacuating Organizationalmaintenance to DS level in the llth AirAssault Division Tests. Long-term ob-servation of the 1st Cavalry in Vietnam
suggests that the "four-hour rule" hasbeen replaced by a "twenty-four-hourrule". Therefore, despite the admixtureof Conventional concepts, there are realdifferences in the way the concept isimplemented and hence, the ist CavalryAirmobile experience is consideredseparately in this study.

Scheduled inspection rcquirements havebeen modified under the Airmobile concept,with four rather than three inspectionsrequired. The daily and intcrmediate in-spections correspond closely to the con-ventional concept. Periodic inspections,however, have been modified to providefor a somewhat lesser requirement at 100-"hour intervals than under the Conventionalconcept. At 300-hour intervals, however,a thorough searching inspection is per-formed. The daily, intermediate, and 100-hour periodic inspections are performedat Organizational level. The 300-hourperiodic inspection is performed at DSlevel.
Thus, Organizational level maintenancework performed under the Airmobile con-cept is less than under the Conventional.Air mobility is a primary objective andis attained by insuring that tools, equip-ment, personnel, and unserviceable air-craft in the operating unit are kept ata minimum. Work is confined almost ex--clusively to whole aircraft. Organiza-tional level units are authorized a re-latively lower ratio of mechanics to air-craft.
At the Organizational level, maintenanceis limited to the performance of lightpreventive maintenance services, such as:
1. Lubrication2. Cleaning3. Securing loose nuts, bolts, screws

Although periodic inSlcctions arc per-formed at the Organizational level, con-Eiid(erable depciledecICe is placed on theperformance of a high percentage of per-iodic inspection at the DS level to as-sure quality control and to clean up de-ferred maintenance items.
In actual operations in Vietnam, the DSfunction in the Airmobile Division isaccomplished by the Transportation Air-craft Maintenance and Supply Battalionconsisting of four companies with a totalstrength of 1,428 men, as compared withthe 181 men in an infantry division air-craft maintenance company. This Battalionis organizcd under TOEs 55-405T, -406T,and -407T; and is authorized the capabil-ity to accomplish 85 perctnt of the entirePS function, including the DS supply activ-ity. Additionally, as compared with otherDirect Support Field Maintenance organ-zations, it relieves the supported unitsof a greater amount of what is normallyconsidered the Organizational maintenanceload. This permits the supported elementsto maintain the higher degree of air mo-bility as required under the Airmobileconcept.
Under current SOPs, the Division DS Corn-panics perform every third (or 300-hour)periodic inspection on supported aircraft.These companies are not authorized theheavier equipment provided the backup DScompanies. In accordance with Airmobileconcepts, they use only lighter equipmentwhich is transportable by Army aircraft.Nevertheless, a review of recent workloadsdisclosed no significant passing of re-quiretuents to Corps level DS companies.Visits to the Airmobile Division indicated

Under this concept, the units' organizationand functional allocation are essentially
Maintenance those described for the Conventional Main-Concept tenance Concept. The principal difference
is tL.tt the DS Detachment is permanentlyassigned to the supported company ai-d physj.-cally accompanies it in the field. Thisavoids any requirement for the evacuationof aircraft to the DS Maintenance unit, orany conflict of priorities for use of itscapabilities. These detachments are employed"with the various companies of the 1st Avia-tion Brigade. The 0-1 and U-I companies sup-ported under the Detachment concept are notspecifically discussed in this study sincethe analysis of other companies covered thebulk of the Brigade aircraft and involvedthe same concepts. The discussion here con-cerns itself with the UH-i and CH-47 com-panies. The Aerial Surveillance Company(OV-I) is discussed separately.
DS Detachments can, in general, accomplishmost of the types of maintenance the Com-pany performs, limited only by time, man-power, and some items of test equipment.Thus, the DS Detachment workload consistsof the followinL principal functions:
1. IlLjor component replacement2. Airframe repairs
2-11
3. MWO accomp li nhmcn l.4. Major .schcduled inspe2ction a-si-tancc5. l)csignatcd sptcial inllsjcction,-6. Minor C0oipoicnt r'Clpair.
Extensive airframe work, work requiringdiagnostic testing equipment (zygJo, magna-flux), and ovcrflow work of other types iscvacuiated to theI DS Company.
Undhr this concept, the operating unit haswithin' its immediate area a complete Organ-Izational maintenance capability augmentedby a capability for accomplishment of mostDS maintenance required.
GS muaintcnancc, under this concept, is iden-tical to that described under the Conven-tional corcept.
In actual operations in Vietnam, the DSDetachment supporting Ui1-1 companies is
Miaintenace basically as authorizcd under TOE 55-500R,Organization W/C 10 with a strength of 72. The CII-17
DS Detachment is organized in accordancewith the A1 Team of TOE 55-51Wrr with astrength of 82. In practice, these TOEshave been variously modified both by theTheater and their previous CONUS homestations. As under the Convcntional Main-tenance concept. the DS Detachments requirebackup DS maintenance from their Corps DS
companies amounting to approximately 10percent of the DS workload. These detach-ments have overall DS capability limitedonly by time, manpower, and some items of
test equipment, particularly diagnostic,non-destructive testing equipment such aszyglo and magnaflu:,.

Obvious benefits resulting from this inte-gration include mission orientation and ro-sponsiveness to the operating requirements,specializtion in one type and model of air-craft, intimate knowledgf of the specificaircraft and crews, and imtmediate accessi-bility of the aircraft in the unit area.In units checked, almost all of the air-craft (by serial numbers) remained assignedto the units until replaced by attrition or,in a few cases, by exchange for a laterseries aircraft. This provided for both acontinuity of :'amiliarity with the peculiari-ties of specific aircraft and a continuingresponsibility for these aircraft.
FIELD ML'XINTFNANCE IN THE AERIAL SURVEILLANCE COMPANY
Field maintenance in the two Corps AerialSurveillance Companies in Vietnam is accom-plished under the Detachment Maintenanceconcept, but the distinct difference in theworkloading warrants a separate discussion.

A check of th., Yorklnad of DS and GS unitsbehind these companies disclosed that onlya few iterms were repuired, such as someservos and one aileron. A check of sup-porting ASLs disclosed only two or three"• ~items, such as hydraulic secaIs peculiarto the OV-I Mohawk. The only other DSand GS maintenance requests for OV-ls were
for the accomplishment of inbound servicing,transfer inspections, and outbound prepara-tion of aircraft for CONUS depot repair.
In view of the foregoing, the maintenancesupport of the Aerial Surveillance Coin-"panics will not be discussed in the por-tions of this study dealing with workloaddistribution or comparative workloads.

EVALUATION PAIA MLTE'RS AND) METIHODOLOGY
An optipmum maintenance organization providesthe coilunajider with the aircr" ft he needs ina timely wanner, and doue so with the mini-paii resources requircment consistent withmceting the mission objective. Accordingly,the APJ approach to this problem consists ofstitdying the results obtained in terms of readi-n' ess and utilization versus the resources im-plications in term-s of personnel, equipment,and parts.
This produces an effectiveness and coststudy in which the respective decision fac-tors are set forth in physical rather thandollar terms. The results can, of course,be translated into dollar terms but i t isclearly essential to assess the factorsboth of effectiveness and cost in physicalterms.
Finally, it is necessary to consider thesubstantive content of maintenance operationsto insure the soundness of the findings andrecommendations. Accordingly, this is thethird aspect of evaluatioi..
CAPABILITIES OF MAINTENANCE UNITS
The relative capabilities of the maintenanceunits and elements were evaluated in termsof the maintenance support workload actuallyexperienced in Vietnam operations. To com-pare capabilities and costs across units sup-porting different aircraft, it was necessaryto develop a method for comparing the sup-port workloar' generated. To relate these
3-1
divcirse cqujpmen..t;, th' jiethod had to pro--vide for using a common denolinaltor inquantifying the Nvorkloads. For this pur-pose (anld for 11se only ill this study), theconice(pt eW maintenance equivalents (withsAore: variaition in the details, of it-, de.velop-mlent)was appliled to each TMIS, each echelonof iliaill tenianue, and each l1laintl"ltencnco Cll--cept.
In the application of the maintenance equiva-lent concept, the first step was to developthe Plall-hotII' per flying hour rate by main-tenance echelon for each TMS of aircraftfrom analysis of data from the APJ data
bank sample studies. The.next step con-sisted of a further refinement of the analy-sis to develop the portion of the work accom-plished at each echelon for the Ull-1 and theCII-47 helicopters for use in this study.These ratios were further differentiated bythe several concepts used. The flying hourswere then obtained from the DA Form 1352 Re-ports for sample units of the various typesunder consideration. Applying the mainten-ance man-hours per flying hour by TMS andusing the ratios developed on distributionof the work between echelons, maintenanceequivalents were established for the air-craft supported by each maintenance element.These included multiple factors for th..e back-up DS companies which supported aircraftunder more than one concept. The maintenanceequivalents as established based on Vietnamexperience are set forth in Figure 3-1.
As seen in Figure 3-]., the total maintenancefor the high density UMI-ID is used as thebasic unit. It is noted that this applica-tion of the maintenance equivalent factor
concept represents a departure from the more

The relatively high factor resulting for the011-13 is producod primarily by tile missionprofile of the aircraft. This profil.e oper-ates the aircraft a larger percent of the(-time at the upper limits of its flight Olive-lope and concurrent c'xposure to considerablehostilo action. At the GS and DS levels,these aircraft generate heavy workloads onextensive repair of combat and crash damiagewhich, onl other types, would be accomplishedin C0NUS depots after evacuation. It is ex.-pected that this will continue in view ofthe large requirements for these observationhelicopters, necessita ting thecir repair andreturn to service to tile maximum extent fea-sible. No valid data, has been developed topredict the exten;. to which the 011-6 willgenerate a similar workload as it phases into replace the 011-13.
The high factor on the U-1 is a function ofits relatively high flying hour performanceand recent avionics modification. However,fluctuations in its rate of maintenancegenerated will average out for the purposesof this study with some of the other lowdensity types and its overall impact is notconsidered signi ficant.

In the iinal analys;is, it is considered rca-sonablc that the quantil ative capability ofmaintcnance units can bL e.xpreseCd as therelative number of nv' ltnn.ince equivalentsthat they support. IQualitative capabilities will be discussedin more detail in succeeding sections ofthis Report in terms of equipment and MOSskills authorized in the TOE, as modified,"and the supply levels authorized in ASLs and

EFI"ECTIVENESS
"Two principal measures of effectiveness inthis study were the readiness rates of air-
craft systems (percentage of their assigned"time during which they are mission ready)and the utilization rates (in flying hoursflown per month). These data were obtainedfrom DA Form 1352. They are presented inChapter 5 of this Report on a monthly basisdifferentiated by concept for U1I-1, OV-1,and CIT-47 for one year ending 31 Mty 1967.
In the comparative evaluation of the threeconcepts, it was necessary to look beyond
the overall readiness rates to the NORS andNORM rates. By normalizing NORS rates, thecauses of the NORIM rates can be evaluatedand compared directly. This approach to thedetermination of effectiveness provides amatrix of relationships which can establishthe differences among the three concepts.In addition, it can also provide for detailedinvestigation of the unJerlying reasons forthe differences in rates.

RIESPONS I N.EN..SS
Responsiveness can reasonably be consideredas a concomitant of effectiveness. However,for the purpose of this evaluation, respon-siveness is separately analyzed as the re-action time of thc support element or, inother wvords, the turnaround time of aircraftfor repair, inspection, or other maintenance
actions.
In establ.ishina, the parameters for thisanalysis, iteimi 23-27 of DA Form 2407 wereused and equivalent entries from DA Forms2405, i.e., Date Submitted, Date Received,Date Started, Date Inspected, and Date Ac-cepted. Determining the diffirences inthose dates. the total turnaround time of
aircraft in and out of DS maintenance was es-tablished. Additionally, a breakout canbe derived to show the length of time air-craft are awaiting entry into the shop andthe tVme spent in the shop. For purposes

of this eva, ].1ation, hi stograiis were estab-Jishicd on the diJ.tributionb of days in-
Vol'id iln each of those paarts of the main-tena nce cycle, and are shown in Chapter 6of this study as percentages of the dis-tribution by nimuels of days and the aver---
- fage number of days that aircraft are in
work. This providus for a reaction time
comnparison among the three concepts under-study. Obviously, this element of respon-siveness cannot be taken out of contextsince it does not establi-sh the quality"nor the dogree of maintenance performed;
these, in the final analysis, are more
the function of readiness and utilization."Hlowever, from the commander's viewpoint,this evaluation reflects the adequacy of
the supporting unit to satisfy established"requirements for maintenance and return toservice of an end item.
WORIKLOAI) DISTRIDLrUJION
A major problem in this portion of the analy-sis lies in the fact that neither the Dctach-mnert nor the ROAD Division Maintenance Com-
pany does all of the DS mainteiiance requiredby its supported units. Both of these mainten-
ance elements evacuate certain of thcir main-tenance to B3achup DS companies in addition tothat which goes to the backup GS Companies.
Accordingly, for this purpose, it is neces-
sary to ascertain the percentage of workdistributed to the supporting DS maintenance
organization as previously discussed. Thisdistribution is needed to establish the main-
tenance equivalents supportud, and to cost
out the investment in equipment parts and"personnel.

RELATIVE INVE'STMEINT AND PI`RSONNE1, REQUIREU;MENTS
In developing the relative investment costof equipment for several types of units, thefirst step was to co'-t out the bigli costitems individually. The nomene]ature andline item number were extr'acted from thepertinent TOE. For those TOEs using the old6-digit line item numbers, the convorsioi.was made to the new line item numbers. Theseitems then were costed according to SP 700-20to the extent that they were listed and costgiven. For the items not so listed, priceswere obtained from other supply cataloguesand manuals and from National Inventory Con-trol Points. A sampl-ng technique was usedfor items of low cost. For purposes

Personnel requirements were developed inthis s•tudy from the latest modified TOE,and broken down into di.rect, indirect, ;ndoverh,"-d to establish relationships amonkgthese groups.
For further comparison among the conceptsand the units involved, the number of directworkers and total personnel were related tothe number of maintenancee equivalents sup--ported. Dlirect workers were totaled on aOne-for-one basis except for crew chiefsid:ntifiable with utility and cargo heli-copters (other than medical detachment).These were counted at a ratio of 50 percentbased on observation and reports indicatingthat these crew chiefs spend colnsid,!rabletime airborne where they can accomp.lishlittle, if any, maintenance and, in manycases, additionally functi.n as door gun-Dlel's.

A rev-,ew of the staffing of the DS Compan-ies under the ROAD and Corps Backup concepts
. reveals that there are few significant dif-ferernces. The primary difference is in the
number of armalent mainatenance personnel,(nine in the Corps Backup shop as opposedto only one in the ROAD), while the ROADconcept provides for additional aircraft
i maintenance personnel. However, a compari-Son of these two concepts with the Airmobileconcept shows that the Airmobile Division
has approximately 50 percent more person-
hiel en toto. This is primarily due to

the larg'e number of the more sophistica Led
aircraft that are supported by the AirmobileDivision conpared to the ROAD and Corps Back-.up units.
It is even more significant to develop thecomparison between the DS Detachment concept
and the Airmobile concept. In general, eachDS Detachment, w.ith about 55 maintncance as-sociated personnel, supports one operatingcompany of approximately 25 aircraft. TheAirmobile Division, with a total populationof over 400 aircraft, has four DS mainten-ance companies. Thus, each DS Company sup-ports approximately 100 aircraft, with 215maintenance associated personnel. In gen-eral, the distribution of MOS spaces betweenthe Detachment and the Airmobile concept isclosely similar. The majority of MOS spacesare in the aircraft and aircraft componentsmaintenance area, with adequate provisionfor electronics, armament, and other skillareas.
The GS Company used in the backup of all DShas a composition not unlike that of the.Airmobile Division DS Company, including,as will be shown later, the skill levelsindicated by the personnel grades. Theseskill areas are illustrated in Figure 4-2.
Maintenance In the review of grades for maintenance
Personnel personnel in each of the organizations, itGrades is noted that the DS Detachments have grades
4 and 5 predominantly, with very few in thehigher grades. On the other hand, the DScompanies, and in particular the GS Company,have a very significant number of E6s andE7s.

A careful review of the MOS structures in
Figure 4-1 will indicate the primary reasonfor the Jack of higher grades in the Detach-
ment. It will be noted that the Detachmcatsare provided very few inspectors and super-
visory personnel, the organizations dcpcnd-ing primarily on the parent unit to which
they are satellited for this service.
The lack of inspector and supervisory per-sonnel in the Detachments is not necessarily
advantageous. In many instances, fieldresults have indicated that there is a crit-ical shortage of tech inspectors at theseunits, and vcry often aircraft aw.ait theavailability of the inspector after coimple-tion of the work. Of course, supervisorypersonnel provided by the parent organiza-tion should be adequate. This is not thecase for tech inspectors.
Therefore, it might be stated that the De-tachrments were provided adequate mainte-nance functional capability in comparisonwith the full-sized DS Companies, particu-larly with the Airmobile Di;ision concept.
However, the relative effect oi± this distri-bution of personnel depends completely uponthe nature of the workload which they assumefor themselves, and that which they forwardto the backup DS Companies. Chapter 7 ofthis Report is a detailed investigation ofthe distribution of the workload among thevarious levels of maintenance concept andtheir backup, in both the DS and GS areas.

"Supp].y The last investigation in MOS categoriesSupport was in the diffK i'nccs in supply support
being provided the various DS units. Fig-ure 4-3 represents the results of this
evaluation.
In.the analysis of the supply support pro-vided each of the units, consideration wasgiven, not only to the MOS category for thegeneral supply personnel (76 series), butalso to parallel functi- is which might beperformed in the larger-sized units byspecialized MOSs, but would ordinarilybe expected of supply personnel in thesmaller units. Thus, each TOE was reviewed.to establish the total shop support per-sonnel being provided and, as appropriate,subdivided into Shop Supply, Storage andIssue, Parts Requisition and Records, andthe Supply Platoon Headquarters. It willbe noted thai; supply personnel in the threeDetachments were included under Shop Supply.However, the personnel spaces in the TOEswere assigned w,'ithin the Detachment as sup-ply clerks who are expected to provide thenecessary services for Requisitioning, Re-cording, Storage and Issue, including theappropriate administrative requirementscarried in parallel by the.! Detachment ad-ministrative personnel.
The Conventional maintenance DS concept,applicable to the ROAD DS Company, providessupply personnel in a Shop Supply Section.However, as set forth in 'he TOEs, thebasic ROAD DS company does not, in itself,contain a supply function. This is providedby a consolidated supply activity operatedby the maintenance and support battalion.It should be pointed out, however, that one

of the Divisions organized and operatingin Vietnam at the present time, has divor-
ced the aviation supply function from theconsolidated supply, and established anAviation Supply Support activity withinthe DS Company. Organized under MITOE 55-89G,a total of 18 personnel are assigned tothis section, nine in Shop Supply and ninein Storage and Issue. This more closelyapproximates the level of supply supportrequired in this Divisional unit.
The Airmobile Division, with its four DSCompanies organized under an Aviation Su.)-port Battalion, has a more sophisticatedsupport section. Each of the DS Companieshas seven men in Shop Supply, 14 men inStorage and Issue, 15 men in Parts Requi-sitioning and Records Section, and threein Supply Platoon Headquarters. In addi-tion, 16 men are provided at the BattalionSupply level directly associated with avia-tion support, an average of four-men perDS Company. This provides a total of 43supply support personnel for each DS Com-pany organized under the Airmobile concept.
The Corps Backup DS Company has a total of28 supply support personnel. Six are as.-signed to a Shop Supply Section, 11 in Stor-age and Issue and 11 in the Supply PlatoonHeadqu-arters. Although the number assignedto the Headquarters appears to be excessivein comparison to the total platoon, many ofthe functions that are ordinarily performedin the Parts Requisitioning and Record sec-tion of the Airmobile concept are performedby the Platoon Headquarters personnel.
"4-11
In comparison, *the GS Company is authorized14 spacc;s in the Supply Support in a ShopSupply Section.
Many of the personnel within the unitsinvestigated do not necessarily carry 76series MOSs. Forklift operators, packag-ing clerks, requisitioning specialists,key punch operators, etc., are includedin the more sophisticated supply supportactivities due to the volume of work in-volved. The 15th TC (AM&S) Bn. for ex-ample, receives approximately 16 to 18tons of spare parts daily and retrogradesapproximately 7 to 9 tons daily. However,these same functions must be performed bythe Shop Supply Sections in the smallerunits not provided the same degree of so-phistication in organization due to therelatively low workload in their mainte-nance facilities.
On this basis, the true comparison shouldbe made in the total shop support person-nel provided each of the maintenance units.The Airmobile concept DS Company, with itstotal of 43 personnel, has the largestnumber. The Corps Backup DS Company andthe Conventional Maintenance DS Companyfall into a secondary level, with a rangefrom 18 to 28 personnel in supply support.The three Detachments are provided thesmallest number of supply support person-nel, seven for the OV-l, eight for theCH-47, and four for the UH-l. However,it must again be reiterated that the De-tachment will, in most cases, receive thesupport of the parent unit on which it issatellited to supplement its functional re-quirements in supply support. In many in-stances, in actual operations in Vietnam,the Detachment personnel were mergedwith the Organizational units, supplementing
4-12
the Organizational units to a love.] forwhich they can provide the neces.ai:y sup-port. However, due to the relative pro--portion of the workload that is performedby the Detachments, a reassessment of thetotal number of spaces required might benecessary.
The primary criteria to be used in assess-ment of the adequacy of the supply person-"nel spaces a;'e the volume of supply handledand the frequency with which requisitionsmust be placed in order to provide parts"for maintenance personnel. As will bepointed out later in this Report, the De-tachments are serving a function of rapid"aircraft turnaround, with the primary ef-fort concentrated in the remove and re-place effort rather than repair and returnto use. On this basis, it might be antici-
pated that the relative number of requisi-tions to be supported by the supply person-"nel would be high in comparison to thoseDS activities which support a repair func-tion. This analysis of the distributionof type of work is covered in Chapter 7of this Report.
EQUIPMENT - MAINTENANCE ITEMS
A detailed investigation of the maintenanceitems associated with the support of air-craft is included in Annex B of this Re-port. In this investigation, the completeTables of Equipment for every maintenance
"unit investigated were reviewed and allequipment associated with the maintenance"function of the aircraft identified. Fur-therinore, each of these lines were then
"4-13
I-,
related to a particular categorization ofequipment in the following sets:
A AnalyzersB HelicoptersC SheltersD Shop SetsE Generators - SignalF Maintenanee -Tool Sets & I(tsG Test SetsH Simulators.
The equipment carried in the Tables ofEquipment were grouped in accordance with-in the above structure and sunmuarized innumerical quantities of rmlaintenance itemsin Figure 4-4.
No z)ttempt was made to distinguish the dif-ferences between various types of itemsthat fall within these major categories.The primary purpose was to investigate thevariation in the types of equipment to ob-tain an indication of the major maintenancefunctions to which these units could be ap-plied.
From the data presented in Figure 4-4, thetype of work and the extent to which theseunits are capable of completing a task ofaircraft maintenance support becomes ap-parent. The CH-47 and OV-l Detachments,with their analyzers, signal generators,test sets and simulators are quite capableof sophisticated component tests, check outand repair. On the other hand, the UH-1 DSDetachment with tool sets, shop sets, anda few test sets are limited to the primaryfunctions of removal, minor test and checkout (depending on the equipment in the shopsets), and the replacceient of componentswhich have been isolated as problem areas.

The DS Companies, on thc other hand, arewell equipped for major types of compo-nent repair, rebuild, check out, etc. Thedegree to which the equipment is used, ofcourse, will depend on the distribut.Lon ofworkload between the Divisional units andthe Backup DS Companies. It will also de-pend, to a large degree, on the extcnt towhich the GS Company is used within thecontext of its application to the supportof Army aviation.
As will be shown later in this Report, theAirmobile Division is independent of almostall, except a very small element, of GSmaintenance. This is illustrated by theextent to which this DS Company has beenprovided sophisticated test and check outequipment, tool sets, etc. The Corps Back-up DS Company is not too far from the Air-mobile DS Company with regard to allocationof sophisticated equipment, e.g., signalgenerators, maintenance kits, test sets,etc. Considering the fact that the CorpsBackup DS Company is to be used in the sup-port of both Divisional and non-Divisionalaircraft; its capabilities are quite appar-ent.
The ROAD DS Company capabilities are nottoo different from the Corps DS Company,with a slightly smaller quantity scale.The GS Company, on the other hand, is veryheavily oriented to the more complex main-tenance equipment because it handles bothcomponent repair and airframe work. Witha total of 20 analyzers, 46 signal genera-tors, 146 test sets, and miscellaneousother items, the GS Company has an extremelywell rounded capability.
4-16
This review, of course, cannot be consideredout of context with the overall maintenance
71 function as it is applied in actual opera-tions in Vietnam. Therefore, the real signi-ficance of the distribution of maintenanceequiprm:ent among the concepts studied cannotbe assessed without further investigationinto the actual investment cost in equipment,the workload distribution, and the mainten-ance functions performed by each of the unitsorganized under these concepts. These addi-tional areas of investiation are coveredbelow.

CHAPTER 5
* J EVALUATION OFOPEPUTIONAL EFFECTIVENESS
READINESS
The operational readiness of unit aircraftis the "pay off" function which is the keymeasure of effectiveness. However, in us-ing the readiness rate to compare relativeeffectivenesses of maintenance units, con-sideration must also be given to the relatedutilization rates. Units of equal effec-tiveness could have different readinessrates if there were a substantial differ-
A ence in the utilization rates. This factorwill be covered in the final evaluation in"this Chapter.
Figures 5-1 through 5-4 present graphiccomparisons among the three maintenanceconcepts, of the monthly readiness ratesand their trends for the four aircraft stu-died for the year ending 31 May 1967. Ascan be seen, the readiness rates for detach-ment supported aircraft are consistentlyhigher than for those supported under theother two concepts. Figure 5-5 provides asummary of this information, comparing theaverage readiness rates for a 14-month peri-od which clearly reflects the higher readi-ness rates generated by the detachment sup-ported aircraft.
The helicopters in the Airmobile Divisionhad a higher readiness r3.te than those inthe Infantry Division, although the InfantryDivision OV-J. aircraft had significantlyhigher readiness rates than those of theAirmobile Division. It is also significant tonote that the Airmobile CH-47 fleet was pro--cessed through the 600-hour PE during the per-.iod Jul.y 1966 through April 1967.

Figure 5-6 summarizes the results of thetrend analysis on the monthJly relationshipsbetween the readiness rates for detachmentsupported aircraft and those for aircraftsupported under the other two concepts.
Thus, the aircraft supported by the detach-
ment not only had a higher average readinessrate than those supported by the other twoconcepts, but over the time period shown,had consistenly higher rates on a month-by-
month basis.
NOT OPERATIONALLY READY SUPPLY
(NORS)
In using readiness rates as a measure ofthe operational effectiveness of mainten-ance units, it is also necessary to investi-.gate the impact of those NORS aircraft.Accordingly, the NORS rates for each ofthe 12-months through May 1967 are presentedin Figures 5-7 through 5-10 by maintenanceconcept and types of aircraft being studied.Averages of these rates for the 14-monthperiod through 31 May 1967 are shown inFigure 5-11.
As can be seen, there was no particular signi-ficant difference among t'he concepts. TheDetachments had better ratc. for two air-craft, the Conventional concept one, and
-the Airmobile concept the other.
To determine the interactive impact of Opera-tional Readiness and NORS on the Readinessrelationships between concepts, these twoparameters are combined in Figure 5-12.The results disclosed no significant changein overall relationships among the concepts."Therefore, this study can properly compare
. r NORM rates without further regard to the
NORS rates.

NOT OPERATIONALLY READY MAAINTENANCE(NORM)
The NORM parameter studied included indivi-"dual and combined comparisons of Organiza-tional and DS Field Maintenance downtimerates.
The first part of the NORM evaluation isa comparative evaluation of the downtimerates resulting from NORM at Organizationallevel. Although this study deals primarilywith a comparn.tive evaluation of the DS con-cepts, the Organizational level is parti-"cularly sensitive to the relative effectivityof the DS elements. This reaction is re-flected in both the extent to which Organi-zational level is workloaded and the rela-tive NORM rates.
Figures 5-13 through 5-L6 depict the monthlyOrganizational level NORIM rates by mainten-ance support concept for the year ending31 May 1967. For the UH-l helicopters, theOrganizational level. NORM rates were signi-ficantly higher for the Conventional conceptwith not too much difference between theDetachment and Airmobile concepts. The Con-ventional concept also resulted in signifi-cantly higher NORM rates for the OV-l Mohawk.The Detachment Supported Organizational NORMrates for the CH-47 and OV-l were substan-"tially lo,-er than the rates in the Airmobileorganizations. A summary of these resultsare illustrated in Figure 5-17.
It appears that both Airmobile and Detach-ment Supported concepts produced lower down-time rates for Organizational NORM than theConventional concept. As discussed in Chap-ter 2, the Airmobile concept provides for alesser workload at the Organizational

Maintenance lcvcl than the other conceptsdiscussed. The Detachment concept, opera-ting under direct control, of the aviationunit coimmander, also tends to reduce the"Organizational level workload.
Field maintenance level NORM rates for theyear ending 31 May 1967 are reflected inthe trend charts in Figures 5-18 through5-21. The averages of these data for a14-month period are presented in Figure 5-22.The downtime rates for Detachment supportedaircraft were consistently lower than thosefor aircraft maintained by the other twofield maintenance concepts. Otherwise, forthe UH-l helicopters, Conventional and Air-mobile concepts produced similar overalldowntime rates at the field maintenancelevel. For the OV-l, the NORM field main-tenance rate under the Conventional conceptwas only slightly higher than under theDetachment concept, but the rate under theAirmobile concept was substantially higher,(three times the rate realized under theDetachment Support concept). As discussedearlier, the higher NORM rates of the Air-mobile concept reflect its requirement thatmore maintenance be accomplished at fieldmaintenance or DS level.
Figures 5-23 through 5-26 present overallNORM rates for combined organizational andfield maintenance, with a summarizationaveraged for a 14-month period in Figure5-27. These data verify that the highreadiness rates for the Detachment supportedunits were directly related to the mainten-ance effectivity of the maintenance detach-ments. Additionally, these data provideindicators that the Airmobile concept re--sults in availability rates superior tothose experienced in organizations supported

under the Conventional conce~pt. Through-out these comparisons, the OV-l rates forthe detachments were based on an averFageof about 32 aircraft but, on the other hand,the OV-I data for the Air'mobile and Convention-al concepts wvere based on an average ofonly five or six aircraft supported undereach. These comprise the total aircraftavailable at the Divisional level, andrandom variations duc to a non-averagesituation affecting one or two aircraftare mirrored in the averages because of thesmall number in the total population.
UTILIZATION
A further analyses was made of aircraftutilization rates under the three concepts.Maintenance workload, at the flying hourrates attained in Vietnam was found tobe almost directly related to utilizationrates, i.e., an increase in utilization often percent will normially increase main-tenance wvorkload by about ten percent. There-fore, it was necessary to verify that thehigher readiness rate did not result fromlower utilization with a correspondinglylower maintenance demand.
A comparison of monthly utilization rat':sfor the period of one year is presented inFigures 5-28 through 5-31, and summarizedin Figure 5-32, setting forth average ratesby concept for a 14-month period. Fromthese data, it can be seen that the detach-ments have the highest flying hour ratesfor three types of aircraft and the secondhighest for the fourth typo. To more clear-ly relate the utilization rates among thethree concepts, a weighted average of alltypes of aircraft evaluated is also shown in

This relativeranking is consistent across the differenttypes of aircraft, and the relationship isapparent from data covering a year of opera-tions. Moreover, the supply factor is ir-relevant for the comparison because there wasno warked superiority of NORS, across theunits studied, under each of the concepts.

CHAPTER 6
RESPONSIVENESS OF SUPPORT
The effectiveness of maintenance performanceis reflected in the responsiveness with whichmaintenance support is rendered, i.e., thelength of time that ensues between the recog-nition of the requirement for maintenanceand the return to the user of the aircraft inserviceable condition. The action is, ofcourse, triggered by a maintenance request,and the time that elapses between the main-tenance request and the return of the air-craft in serviceable condition is composedboth of administrative and technical pro-cesses. Thus, the analysis of responsive-ness includes:
1. Time from submission of the maintenancerequest to formal rect.ipt and entry inthe maintenance register in the DS unit.
2. Time from receipt of maintenance requestto the start of work on the aircraft.
3. Time from start of work to final inspec-4. Time from final inspection to acceptance
of aircraft by the unit.
The fourth factor was found to be widelyfluctuati ng. +t appcared strongl~jJy dependU-ent on command emphasis, i.e., units whosecommanders insisted on the prompt inspectionand return of aircraft showed acceptancetimes lower than the average./ For thisreason, the analysis covers only the firstthree factors above.
I/ The ir irtance of command emphasis isshown , the fact that excessive periodjof time frequently occurred, even though
?! the finished aircraft might be on the-- same ramp or airficld of using unit.

The evaluation covers the UiI-1 and CH-47.Support of the OV-1 aircraft, particula-lyI in the two Aerial Surveillance Companies,was highly integrated into the organiza-tional structure, and DS maintenance isnot readily defined as a separate function.Moreover, back-up support is provided bycontract.
Figure 6-1 presents the results of thisanalysis, showing the percentage of UH-1Job orders that fell into groupings oftime intervals (days) for each of theechelons of maintenance and each of theconcepts. Figure 6-2 shows similar infor-mation for the CH-47 helicopters in theAssault Support Helicopter Companies ofthe 1st Aviation Brigade and the 1st Cav- -"
airy Division. To facilitate comparisonof maintenance responsiveness to operation-al requirements, these results were furtherstratified in Figures 6-3, 6-4 and 6-5.
The first two time intervals studied (datesubmitted to received and date received towork started) were actually the administra-tive processing of the maintenance requestand initiation of maintenance work on theaircraft. Sameday action was considered adesirable and achievable standard to beobtained. Therefore, the percentage ofmaintenance requests submitted and receivedthe same day were compared for the threemaintenance concepts in Item 1 of Figure6-3. Similarly, under Item 2 of Figure 6-3,a comparison was made of the percentage ofinstances where the work was started thesame day the maintenance request was re-ceived. Additionally, Item 3 shows the per-centage of instances where work was startedthe same day or the next day after themaintenance request was received.

CHAPTER 7
DISTRIBUTION OF DS AND GS WORKLOAD
GENE'RAL
To assess the effectiveness of each of thefield maintenance concepts, detailed analy-ses must be made of the workload structureof each concept. The interaction amongthe various support maintenance leve ls with-in each concept (workload at each level)must be carefully dissected to establishthe interrelationship between the personnelskills and equipment at each level, of sup-port maintenance and the aircraft mainten-ance requirements filled by those samelevels of maintenance.
Two parameters were studied to evaluate themaintenance workloads of the three conceptsconsidered. The first parameter analyzedwas the distribution of workload among levelsof maintenance for each of the three concepts.
Under the Detachment concept, three mainten-ance levels were studied, The first was theDS Detachment; the second was the Corps Back-up DS Company, and the thi:rd, the GS Company.
For the Conventional concept (ROAD Division),three maintenance levels also were studied.The fiM'st was the DS Company within the ROADDivision. The second level was the CorpsBackup DS Company which supports the ROADDivision, and finally, the GS Company.
7-1
In the Airwobile concept, only two mainten-ance level.; werc studied. The first wasthe DS Company vithin the Airmobile Divi-
sion. The second was the GS Company in sup-port of the Airmobile Division. No CorpsBackup DS (,ompany was studied for the Air-mobile concept because it does not use any
in actual operation in Vietnam. The four
DS Companies within the Airmobile Division
provided all Direct Support field maintenance
requirements. Discussion of General Supportmaintenance (GS) includes any maintenanceperformed at that level by contracted
f civilian personnel.
The second parameter studied in evaluatingmaintenance workloads ivas the distributionof workload by maintenance category. Forthis study, the workload was stratified in-to nine separate categories:
I. Airframe repairs which include sheetmetal, welding, spot painting and re-pair or replacement of airframe struc-tural components, parts, bracketry, etc.
2. Componnnt removal and replacement, otherthan armament, avionics, and airframestructural components.
3. Inspection and inspection assistance
to Organizational units.4. Avionics repair and component replace-
ment.5. Armament repair and component replacement.6. Back shop component repair, not related
to a serial numbered aircraft.7. MWO installations.8. Processing aircraft in and out of the
theater.
9. Other maintenance on aircraft.
Because of the special circumstances concern-ing the maintenance of OV-I aircraft in, Vietnam(as discussed elsewhere in this Report), onlythe UII-1. and the CH-47 aircraft were studiedin this analysis.

Echcl onimelnt A comparison of the percentage of total sup-of port maintcnince performed by the DS Detachmcnt
Main tence C with that pcr:Uormed by the DS Companies
within the respective Divisions under thoset;wo maintenance concepts is as follows:
Percent FieldMaintenance
DS Deta.chment 90.0
DS Co Airmobile 83.6Division
D S Co ROAD 82.0Division
The Detachment fills 90 percent of the main-tenance requirements, leaving only 10 per-cent to be filled by the Corps Backup DSand GS Companies which support it. TheConventional ROAD Division and the AirmobileDivision DS Companies fill 82.0 percent and83.6 percent of the field maintenance re-quirements respectively. The DS Detachmentsperform six To eig-ht percent more of themaintenance requirements than either ofthe two Divisions. Thus, a higher percent-age of maintenance is performed in the ini-mediate vicinity of the operating unit underthe Detachmen-t maintenance concept thanunder the two Divisional maintenance con-cepts. However, the total impact of thisdifferential will be even more significantwhen considered in relationship to the per-sonnel, supply, and equipment investmentcosts (discussed in Chapter 9).
7-3
The following table presents the distribu-tion of the residual field mai-ntenance per-formed by the Backup DS and GS Companies
under cach of the three conccpts.
Percent Residual Maintenance
Airmobile ROADDetachment Division Division
Backup DS Co. 99% 0% 95%
GS Co 1% 100% 5%
In .the case of the Detachmcnt, 99 percentof the residual support maintenance, or 9.9percent of the total maintenance re-quirements, is performed by the DS Company,while only one tenth of a percent is per-
formed by the GS Company.
For the ROAD Division, 95 percent of theresidual maintenance is performed by theBackup DS Company, but since the residualmaintenance for the ROAD Division repre-scnts a total of 18 percent of the totalsupport maintenance, the result is that 17.1percent of the total field maintenance re-quirement is performed by the Backup DS Com-pany for the Conventional maintýnance con-cept. Ninc-tenths of one percent of thetotal maintenance requirement forthe Conventional ROAD Division is performedby the GS Company. In the case of the Air-mobile Division, 100 percent of the resid-ual maintenance is performed by theGS Company. This is obviously the resultof the GS Company being physically closerto the Divisional I)S Companies than theyordinarily are under the other two concepts.Because of this proximity of the GS Company
7-4
to the Airmobile Division, no use is madeof its Backup DS Company.
A summary of the distribution of the totalmaintenance workload is presented inFigure 7-1. Those data emphasize the dif-ferences in the level at which work isactually accomplished under each of thethree concepts. During the time periodstudied, only 18 percent of the total air-craft assets in the theater were being pro-vided field maintenance by non-divisionalcompanies. The remaining 82 percent of theaircraft were being, supported by DivisionalDS Companies or DS Detaclhnents. Thus, therelationships shown in Figure 7-1 representthe support distribution for the majorityof the UH-I aircraft since they representthe largest population of any type in thetheater.
The most important finding to be madefrom these data for the UH-I aircraftis that the Detaclunent concept is superiorto the others since a greater portion offield maintenance is performed in the for--ward area. That is, 90 percent in thecase of the Detachment coni-ept and approxi-mately 83 percent in the case of the twoDivisional concepts.

Mi 1tenancc Figure 7-2 presents the distribution ofWork workload by category of maintenance at each
Categorics level for the three concepts. The DS De-tachment and the DS Company within the Air-mobile Division distributions are very simi-lar, but in the levels of supporting main--tenance, the differences become quite ap-parent. In the case of the Detachmý::nt con-cept, the Backup DS Company performs themajority of maintenance on separate compo-nents, apparently the primary purpose forwhich it is used. At GS level, the Con-ventional maintenance concept and the Air-mobile Division concept are approximatelyequivalent, with one major exception.There was no work recorded on separate com-ponents under the Airmobile Division con-cept. In this case, most component main-tenance apparently was identified to aserial numbered aircraft.
The Conventional maintenance concept employsthe Backup DS Company and the GS Companydifferently from either the Detachment orthe Airmobile Division. For the ROAD Divi-sion, the Backup DS Company provides a rela-tively well-rounded support, with no onecategory of maintenance outstanding. TheGS Company, in this case, plays a role simi-lar to that of the Backup DS Company of theDetachment; that is, the GS Company primari-ly provides component repair support forthe Detachment.

GS Company compares well with the 71.1percent rate for the Detachment BackupDS Company. At the DS Company level, theROAD Division accomplishes a greater amountof its component replacements and airframerepair work. From Figure 7-2, it can beseen that the higher level of performanceof the Detachment can be attributed to thefact that component repair and extensiveairframe work are performed outside theDetachment. While the Conventional main-tenance concept performs its separate com-ponent maintenance at GS, it does performa high percentage of its airframe work at itsDS Company. The Airmobile Division performsa large percentage of its airframe repairwork at GS maintenance and a higher percentof its component work at the DS Company level.
It should be noted that armament maintenance ondivision aircraft is accomplished within thedivision. This can be compared in Figure 7-2with the Detachment Concept in which a signi-ficant percer- (2.3) of maintenance of theGeneral Support company is armament.
CH-47 WORKLOAD REQUIREMENTS
The following chart presents the distribu-tion of field maintenance for the CH-47in both the Detachment concept and the Air-mobile Division concept.
Percent Field Maintenance
De tachment AirmobIeI Division
DS Detachment 96.1 96.0or Company
Backup DS Co 3.1 0
GS Co 0.8 4.0
96 percent of the support maintenance re-quirements was filled by the DS Detachmentand a DS Company respectively. The remaining
7-9
four percent falls primarily to the Back-up DS Company under the Detachment con-cept, and totally to the GS Company inthe Airmobile Division concept.
Though the percent of field maintenanceperformed at the lowest level of mainten-ance is approximately the same for bothconcepts, the capability of the AirmobileDivision DS Company is far superior to thatof the DS Detachments. These greater capa-bilities of the Ainrmobile Division are fur-ther demonstrated in Chapter 9, in whichequipment, supply, and personnel investmentsare analyzed. The conclusion might be thatthe DetaChment is performing its field main-tenance mission more effectively and econom-ically thsn is the DS Company of the Air-mobile Division. In both cases, however,it must be remembered that this aircrafthas been receiving special support in theway of supply, technicians, etc., whichprobably accounts for the same workloaddistribution for the Detachment and the Air-mobile DS Company. The distribution of theresidual maintenance follows the p.frternof the UH-l.
Maintenance Figure 7-3 presents the results of the workWork category analysis for the CH-47 aircraft.
Categories The largest percent of workload occurs forthe airframe category in both the DS De-tachment and its Backup DS Company. Thislevel of airframe repair work in the forwardechelon is an important, factor in the supportof these aircraft.

The GS Company of the Airmobile Divisionprovides primarily component repair ma in-tenance support (73.4 percent of the resid'u-al maintenance) and MWO installation support.In the case of the Detaclmient, the GS Com-pany provides a ,vell-rounded ,•a.ntenancesupport. Long term jobs in nearly everycategory of maintenance are evacuated backto the Backup DS Company, and to the GSCompany, leaving the Detaclhnent free toperform the smaller, quick turnaroundmaintenance tasks.

CHAPTER 8
SUPPLY PERFOMANCE
The evaluation of operational effective-ness parameters in Chapter 5 of this Re-
port indicated no significant differencein NORS performance among the various con-
cepts being studied. It is of interest to
determine how this highly comparable NORS
perforinanc.e was accomplisbed under each
concept.
Starting from the base point developed in
NOMS Rates Chapter 5, Figure 8-1 is a time trend analy-
sis of NORS rates experienced by specificunits operating with the Conventional main-
tenance concept and compared to the othertwo concepts. Although in Chapter 5 it was
noted that average NORS rates in the threeconcepts, were similar, it is obvious fromFigure 8-1, that there is a real differencein the NORS rates among specifically identi-fied units. Field investigations indicatethat the primary difference in NORS ratescan be attributed, not to the particular main-tenance concept itself, but to the distancesbetween the maintenance units and the mainsupply activity, and the total time requiredto deliver aviation spare parts from the cen-tral supply to the maintenance units. Thedelivery time of aviation spare parts to unitswhich have additional intermediate supplysources (e.g., UHI-l detachments) are alsoprimarily determined by their distance fromthe AMMC, since it is the ultimate supplysource for all units in Vietnam.
It will be noted from Figure 8-1 that theAirmobile Division DS Companies have had ahigh NORS rate over the entire time period
covered. Field investigations indicatethat the order-ship-time for requisitionsfrom the Ccntral Supply Agency (ABMMC) tothe Airmobile Div'ision is from three to

five days, usually closer to the five-day
mark.
The NORS rates for the various ROAD Divi-
sions (Conventional cone-t) are also a
function of distance. )ýCýAD Division No.1,located a distance of 20 miles from the
AMMC, has a maximum requisition delivery
time of 24 hours. ROAD Division No.2, at
a considerably greater distance has a de-"livery time of three days. Although thisdivision had an exceptionally high NORS-rate for October 1966 through January 1967,the initial months of operations in the
* theater, its NORS rate has now stabilizedat a point equivalent to those units, asimilar distance from the central supply
point. ROAD Division No,.3, has a deliverytime of one to two days, and is lower inNORS than the average. ROAD Division No.4has an average delivery time of two days.
Reviewing the trends in Figure 8-1, it isnoted that ROAD Division No.1 is extremelylow with ROAD Division No.3 next, which re-flects the short order-ship-time of requi-sitions, regardless of whether they are EDP
or routine. On this bac;is, it might beconcluded that the time required to fillEDPs is not a function of the particularmaintenance concept employed by the activ-ities,, but is a direct function of distancefrom the point of supply.
Demand The next area of research consisted of anAccommodation evaluation of the Demand Accommodation and
and Demand Demand Satisfaction rates of the activitiesSatisfaction supporting the various units operating
8-3
under the three maintenance concepts.Figure 8-2 presents the avcrages of thesupply performance for these DS units foran eight to ten month period up toDecember 1966. For this study, 24 11-1Detachments, 3 CII-47 DS Detachments, 2
OV-l DS Detachments, 1 ROAD Division DS
Company, 4 Airmobile DS Companies, 7 CorpsDS Companies and 1 General Support Companywere evaluated.
Figure 8-3, thc supply performance reportof the 58th Battalion, AMMC, is includedfor comparative purposes only.
It will be noted that the comparison of thenumber of lines on the ASLs among the vari-ous units (and maintenance concepts) isnot really suggestive of any correlationwith type and/or number of aircraft beingsupported. This, of course, has been veri-fied by many other studies in this samearea which indicates a requirement for fur-ther investigation into the basis for thedevelopment of ASLs. However, the supplyperformance of these units may be measuredon the basis of the degree to which theASL actually satisfied their requirements.
The Demand Accommodation rates of the UH-lDS Detaclhuent, the Airmobile DS Companies,and the independent (Corps) DS Companieswere approximately the same at 75 to 80 per-cent. The ROAD Division DS Company had aDemand Accommodation of 60 percent. TheCII-47 and OV-l DS Detachments had the lowestDemand Accommodation rate of all the DSactivities, 52 percent for the OV-- and 60percent for the C01-47. Of course, these

two aircraft types are the most complex ofall in the Army inventory. However, they
.1 have also had the support of specializedteams, tech reps, special supply procedures,etc., which have the problems of complexityto a degree. This is particularly apparentin the Demand Satisfactioi-. rates for theseaircraft.
Demand Satisfaction, a measure of the degreeto which the supply activity can satisfydemands that are placed against its Author-ized Stockage Lists (ASL), reveals a some-what different picture from that of DemandAccommodation. The CH-47 and OV-I DS Detach-ments had the highest percent Demand Satis-faction, 65 percent and 74 percent respec-tively. This was accounted for by the rela-tively low zero balances for these units
* which probably resulted from the special sup-ply support given these aircraft. The.ROADDivision DS Company also enjoyed 72 percentDemand Satisfaction. All other activities
varied from a low of 50 percent to a highof 59.9 percent Demand Satisfaction, a verysmall differential. In each of these in-stances, the percent zero balance had aspmoothing effect on the Demand Satisfactionwhich resulted in approximately the same"level results.
"From Figure 8-3, it is noted that the DemandAccommodation and Demand Satisfaction wassomewhat higher for the 58th Battalion thanfor the DS units being supported. The per-cent zero balance was approximately equal -othe supported units.

concepts with regard to their supply per-fornance. Therefore, the evaluations werecarried to a greater depth of detail in theevaluation of the UII-1 DS Detachment supplyperforiance to determine whether there wereany distinguishable trends which might beused. Figure 8-4 shows the results of ananalysis on the correlation of number ofrequisitions filled from the ASL and thenumber of items on the ASL. Needless tosay, the scattering of these data indicatesthat there is no definite pattern which canbe distinguished.
The NORS rates were then correlated with thenumber of requisitions filled from the ASLin Figure 8-5. Here again, it will be notedthat a wide scattering of the data permitsno definite correlation without an extreme-ly large degree of error.
The NORS rates were correlated with DemandAccommodation (Figure 8-6) and Demand Satis-faction (Figure 8-7). No distinguishablecorrelation factors could be developed ineither of these instances.
The final evaluation in this area was tocorrelate the percent NORS rates with thenumber of ASL lines carried. These resultsshown in Figures S-S through 8-11 for air-craft, armament and avionics indicate thatno positive correlation can be developed inany of the areas. The sample in the caseof avionics is much too small to develop anyconclusion with the data from aircraft itemsand arm'ament indicating that an expansion ofthe avionics will probably result in a scat-tering of data with no positive correlation.

RcsuIts The results of these analyses indicate thatof there is a definite requirement to reassess
Ana lys is the present procedures used in establishingASLs for DS Detachments, since it has beenshown that there is.no definite relationshipbetween the supply performance of a unit andthe size of its ASL. The very rccent supplycapability appraisal of the 15th TC Bn.(AM&S) ist Cavalry Division and of otherunits under "Project Counter" should providethe needed guidance of such an assessment.
The primary measure of supply capabilitiesappears to be the time required for the Cen-tral Supply Agency to react to a requisi-tion (although this has only been shown ona rather limiited basis in an environmentwhich is peculiar to Vietnam). The CII-47and OV-i DS Detachments are chronicallyless responsive in the area of Demand Ac-conunodation, because of the complexity ofthe aircraft. At the same timethey have amuch higher Demand Satisfaction rate andlower zero balance rates because of thespecialized supply and support given theseaircraft. The UH-I DS Detachment, on theother hand, enjoyed a higher Demand Accom-modation rate, but consistently had a lowerDemand Satisfaction rate with a higher zerobalance level. This was particularly truein the armament area and to a lesser degreefor avionics. These factors were also re-flected in the supply performance of the58th Battalion, AIMMIC.
The supply performance achieved by the DSDetachments and the DS Companies under boththe ROAD and A.rmobile Divisions had indi-cated no significant differences for thesame type of a:Lrcraft. However, it must bepointed out that this supply performance
8-17
,,#!u~r- --
has been achieved, in most cases, by theunits WiLh a Very limited supply manage-ment capability.
The Airmobile Division does have an ade-quately staffed supply activity assignedto the DS Battalion. However, the DS De-tachments and the Divisional DS mainten-ance Activities have been inadequately
staffed (in accordance with their presentKrrOE) to accomplish the supply functionefficiently. In at least one instance, a
completely separate aviation supply pla-toon has been established within a ROADDivision support battalion, using aviation
maintenance personnel for the supply activ-ity spaces (reducing their wrench turning
maintenance capability).
It has also been reported that the proce-dures presently being used in the mainten-ance of the ASLs is far from adequate toperform the tasks at hand.
In spite of all of these problems, thesupply performance of these DS units havemore or less stabilized at an acceptablelevel with regard to the influence thatthey have on aircraft readiness. The po-tential increased capability of these units,with an adequately organized and staffedsupply activity, is a matter of conjectureand should be made a subject of furtheranalytical study.

Figure 9-1, Avcrage MaintenanceEquivalents Supportedby Types of Field Main-
tenance Units in ViLetnam(as of 1 May 1967)
As previously noted, the concept of themainteonance equivalents in this analysis,has an application somewhat different
Irom 1he ordinary. Instead of developing
9-1
the equivalents for items of equipmentwithin a single maintenance echelon, thisstudy applied equivalents to the totalsupport required across all echelons, andassigned a value of unity to the U1--1(largest population) total requirements.These total equivalent requirements werethen redistributed among the various main-tenance echelons. In this manner, theworkload requirements for any one aircraftcan be compared on the same basis, re-gardless of workload distribution amongechelons. The development of these fac-tors were set forth in Chapter 3.
TOE EQUIPMENT INVESTMENT COSTS
The equipment authorized under TOEs ap-plicable to the field maintenance unitsin Vietnam were costed to produce totalinvestment costs for each type unit asshown in Figure 9-2.
In Figure 9-3, these investment costswere normalized by maintenance equivalentsupported for the various field mainten-ance organizations. These data illustratethat the cost per maintenance equivalentsupported is closely celated to the com-plexity of maintenance performed. Asmight be expected, the Detachunent support-ing the CHI-47 has a considerably higherinvestment cost than that supporting theUH-l because of the more sophisticated

Similar investmnicnt costs fortie Airmobilo Division and the Conven-tionial ROAD Division might bc expectedsince the savings which might be antici.--pated by the muaich higher density oi air-craft in the Airmobilc Divisions aremore than offset by the inission profileof the ROAD Division with its normalrequirement to operatu highly dispersed.The separate m;iintelnancc companies mustmaintain a high degree of air mobilityto accomplish their mission v"hcreverrequired. Furthermore, the TOEI of the
Airmobilc Division provides for a highorlevel of maintenance than that of thiROAD Division maintenance company whichdepends upon both the Division's DS Com-pany and its backup.
The principal difficultly in evaluatingthe cost of equipment in a unit, or pro-rating these to their maintenance work-loads (as indicated by maintenance equiv-alests), is the need to determine the ex-tent to which the units rely on their ownequipment or use equipmeitL available toother elements of the same major organi--zation or support elements. Particularlysignificant in this area is the use ofhu icuptvzcs, feu; the maintenance mission.To normalize the prorata equipment coststo a grcater degree, the cost of anyauthorized helicopters was deducted fromthe total and prorata costs. As indicatedin Figures 9-4 and 9-5, the relative fa-vorable position of the CHi-47 Dctac)hnentresulted in a higher prorata cost than theDS Companies of thu Division. However,the DS Detaclhiucts with UJI-I were not toodi fferen,.

PERSONNEL INVESTMENT COSTS
The personnel authorizations of six typesof field maintenance units are compared inFigure 9-6.* The three categories of per-sonnel considered arc defined below:
"Maintenance MaintenanceDirect Indirect Overhead
Repairmen Production Control Company OfficersMechanics Quality Control Platoon Leaders"Helpers Inspectors First Sergeants
Supervisory CooksClerical MessService & Equipment Radio & TelephoneToolroom keepers Company DriversTruck Drivers Company ClerksARIE
Of the six types of units, the Detachmentshave the lowest number of direct personnel,ranging between 37 and 55 direct mechanicsper unit. The DS Companies of the 34thGroup and the DS Company of the ConventionalROAD Division are next in size with 114 and129 direct personnel respectively. Theseare more than twice as la.v:ge as the Detach-ments; The last unit is the DS Company ofthe Airmobile Division. Taken together,theDivision has a total of over 700 directlabor personnel in four DS Companies and aradar repair section, an average of 182 per-sonnel per DS Company.
It is noted that the ratio of direct tooverhead personnel is highest in the Detach-ments, i.e., the UH1-1 Detachments have 13.3

When the indirect labor personnel are in-eluded with the overhead, the differencesbetween the Detachment and DS Companies de-crease. However, there is still a some-what higher ratio in the case of the De-tachm;--nts. The direct labor to overheadand indirect personnel ratio for the De-tachm-ents range between 2°9 to 4.2:1; theratio for DS Companies is 1.1 to 2.6:1.
Figure 9-7 presents the ratio of manpowerto maintenance equivalents supported by aDirect Support maintenance unit. Consider-ing all personnel, the UH-l and CH-47 DSDetachments had ratios of 7.2:1, while theratio for the ROAD and Airmobile Divisionswas 7.7:1. This indicates that the Div-isions require one half a man more thanthe Detachments require to support one air-craft maintenance equivalent. This addedpersonnel authorization is in the non-direct productive personnel category. Acompar'ison of the differences between thetotal personnel and direct personnel ratiosshows that the Detachments have the lowestratio of non-direct personnel per mainten-ance equivalent. These ratios are 1.4:1and 1.9:1 respectively for the UH-1 andC11-47 Detacluhents, while for the ROAD andAirmobile Divisions they are 2.2:1 and 3.3:1respectively. Thus, the Detachment conceptis able to apply a greater number of per-sonnel to "wrench turning" supported byfewer "non-wrench turning" personnel thaneither of the other two concepts.

To establish a base from which to developrecommended organizations in the next Chap-ter, each TOE was further reviewed to iden-tify the administrative support by rankand/or gra&dý provided in each maintenanceconcept. These data are presented in Figure9-8, together with the total maintenanceand supply support personnel.
Figure 9-9 illustrates the percentage dis-tribution in each TOE. It is noted thatthe Divisional DS Companies have a consider-ably higher percentage of administrativesupport personnel than all others (25-30percent of the total TOE strength) . Thenon-Divisional TOE provides about 20 per-cent of the staff for administrative sup-port, while the Detachments have from 11 to15 percent of the total staff in administra-tive roles. Except for the Corps BackupDS Company, supply function personnel com-prise 5-10 percent of the total personnel"for the Detachment and 11-13 percent forthe DS Companies. The Corps Backup DS Com-pany, as constituted in the TOE, providesonly 2.21 percent of the staff in the sup-ply function since it depends on the con-solidated Battalion supply unit for support.As noted, the ist Infantry Division, underMTOE 55-89G provides for 18 supply spacesin the DS Company, which makes it comparableto the- DS Companies.

presented in Figure 9-10. For armament and
avionics, the ASL Lines were averaged over
those units which had an armament and avi.-
onics ASL. If a unit did not have an arma-
ment or avionics authorization, it was not
included in the analyses.
Aircraft ASL The ranking of the units in terms of aircraft
ASL Lines per maintenance equivalent results
in four groupings; the first and lowest is
that of the 58th Battalion with eight ASLLines per maintenance cquivalent. This rate
is low since it is developed from a broad
maintenance equivalent basis. The 58th Bat-
talion supports all aircraft in Vietnam and,
in calculating the maintenance equivalent,
the total aircraft population in Vietnam was
considered.
The CH-47 Direct Support Detachment, the
most complex aircraft considered in this
study, has the next lowest ASL Lines per
maintenance equivalents, approximately 80.
This ratio is low since:
1. These complex aircraft would have com-
plex components requiring special capa-bilities for installation and thus would
be installed by the Backup Direct Support
Company or General Support Company.2. This aircraft has a high ASL per main-
tenance equivalent in the Avionics area.When all types of lines are consideredin calculating this ratio the totalCII-47 ASL Lines per maintenance equiva.-lent are approximately equal to allother maintenance units.
The next group includes the UH-1 and O\ 1DS Detachments, the ROAD Division DS Cc.-pany and the Airmobile Division DS Comjuny.These four units group closely together be-tween approximately 120 and 1.50 ASL Lines

The laIst grolup includes the non-divisiona]DS Coim.paniies (backvp DS niiiits) with 195 ASLsper maintenancec equivalent. This factor isvery high because this group supports theDetachimcnt and DS Companies of the Divisions,and consequently, will stock many itemsthat are not normally required by the sup-ported units because of the workload (bytypo) distributions.
Armament AS], Similar patterns occur for the Armanment ASLLines per maintenance equivailent with the&,58th Battalion being very low since is sup-ports the entire theater. The 34th Gi -)upis very high11 as it provides close supportfor the I'S Detachiments and the DS Companiesof the DiLvi.sioni. The DS Detachmeiits aiidthe DS Companies fall. in a low or mei(-Iumrange.

The lowest group is the same as that foundto be grouped in the two previous types ofASL lines. They include the DS Companiesof the Conventional ROAD, Airmobilc Divi-sions and the U11-I DS Detachmcnt. The widerange is a result of the type of aircraftsupported. In the case of the AirniobileDivision, there is a large mixture of air-craft other than the 1il4-1. This is alsotrue, but to a lesser degree, for the Con-ventional ROAD Division.

Howevcr,the dcl''uie of correlation which should beexpec ted among the various unlits leave much -"
to be dcsircd. The CII-47 Detachment ASLshould be much higher than the UII-1 becauseof the additional complexity in both air-frame and avionics. The Airmobilc Divi-sion, because of the higher populati.on ofaircraft, should have a larger ASL thanthe ROAD Division. Therefore, a furtherdetailed evaluation was initiated to dte'r-mine the total number of supply lines as-signed in the theater to support each main-

It was considered possible that the varia-tions of workload distributions between thevarious maintenance levels might manifestitself in changes in ASLs at the DS level.This would require the summation of thePLIs of tlh operation units with the ASLsof the supporting units.

The relationships of the number of PLL linesper maintenance equivalent between the Do-tachments and the Divisional concepts appearto have no correlation. However, when thesedata are summed with the average number ofASL lincs per type field maintenance unit,per maintenance equivalent, a very signifi-cant result is obtained. The following

Airmobile DS Company 213
Conventional Divi- 283sional DS
The Airmobile DS concept now has the lowesttotal lines per maintenance equivalent, afact which would be expected in the casewhere support is being provided to a rela-tively large population of aircraft. Itmight be expected that as the populationof aircraft being supported docrea.ses, thetotal number of lines would decrease, butthe number of lines per maintenance equiv-alent would increase. Thus, the ROAD Divi-sion, supporting approximately 100 aircraftas opposed to 400 in the Airmobile Division,has an average of 283 lines per maintenanceequivalent. The U1H-1 DS Detachment concept,supporting only one company of UII-is, hasan average of 307 lines per maintenanceequivalent. The differences between theUH-I Detachment and ROAD Division are notas significant since the ROAD DS units aresupporting a multiplicity of aircraft type,model and series, whereas the Detachment issupporting a single type aircraft.
In the case of the CMI-47, an average of242 lines per maintenance equivallnt isrelatively low in comparison to the UH-l,

The rc.su] t of thi:s study have displayed
the superiority of the Det achmient DS main.-tenance concept over the Conventional andAir,,obile D)S concept}s. Based on theseresults, the following concept is proposed:
1. The proceduel'C of assigning D)etachmentsto non-Divibsiona] "COIpa"y-strength'aviation units for the DS maintenancebe conwinuecd as a gcneral policy ratherthan as, an exception to the general rule
2. The administrative support and supervi-sion of the Detachment be provided forby the parent organization (augmented asrequired) upon which it is satellited.Since the DS Detachment would not be re-assigned to another parent unit, itscapability should, in fact, be integratedinto the basic company thus eliminatingall Detachment overhead.
3. The current DS maintenance provided theAirmobile and Conventional Division main-tenance concepts be reviewed to providethe Detachment type support to companysize aviation units within the Division.
4. Where number of aircraft assigned to anorganization is insufficient to warranta Detachment, the organizational struc--ture of that element of the tactical armbe provided Direct Support capability ina Detachitient assigned to the next highercommand level, i.e., a Battalion LevelNX ýhment rather than a Company LevelDe,.,chment. In this case, the Dctate,.imcntwould be satellited on the Battalion Head-quariers with adequate augmentation toprovide administrative support. to the

port of those aircraft that are disperse-A,
i.e., assigned in very few numnberls to eachunit.

concept is to demonstrate its possible ap-
plication to maintenance units presentl.y in

ments of the Detachments required for the
support of the Divisional aircraft will be
compared to the present maintenance units.

The first steps taken in the developmentof the concep)t wore the detailed review ofthe organizyation of tile 1.st Cavalry (Air-mobile) Division and the 1st Infantry Divi-sion; the identification of the aircraftowning unit,; to which each provide support;and the total numubcr of aircraft by type,imodel and series assigned to each of thesupported units in July 1967. In the caseof the Ist Infantry Division, the Division-al aircraft NVUre distributed among scvenorganizations, in addition to two aircraft

units owned 99 aircraft of which three wereOV-1. 44 OI1-13s, 28 UII-1Bs and 24 UII-lDsas shown in Figure 10-1.
The 1st Cavalry Division support was identi-fied by the particular Maintenance Companyof the 35 TC Battalion. Company A of the15th BRittalion, afs shown in Figure 10-2,

degree of backup being provided each of theconcepts. Using the maintenance equivalentscited in Chapter 3, the potential workloadfor the support of each individual companybeing supported wvas then established andrelated to the actual man-hours per monthwith these maintenance equivalents repre-sented. These data a"-- rnpear in Figures10-1 through 10-5 for the two Divisionalconcepts.
Once the total potential man-hour supportrequirements were developed, it was thennecessary to establish a basis for relativedistribution of DS maintenance personnel inaccordance with this distribution of main-tenance requirements. A review of the TOEsindicated that the DS Company assigned tothe 1st Cavalry Division had a total of 215maintenance function personnel of which 182were direct labor (aviation mechanics) .and33 were inspectors and supervisors withinthe maintenance function.
In E Company, the 701st Battalion (support-ing the ist Infantry Division), organizedunder MTOE 55-89G, 142 maintei-,ance person-nel were assigned, of which 129 were laborand 13 were inspectors and supervisors.
On the basis of these total personnel spacesauthorized the Divisions, a distributionwas made of the number of spaces, pro-ratedto each of the companies being supported,based on the man-hours required for the sup-port of the aircraft assigned to thoseunits. These data. presented in Figures10-1 through 10-5, reflect the total numberof maintenance-function personnel and thetotal number of direct labor men in themaintenance function per unit. The differ-ence between the two would represent the
10-17
numbcr of inspectors and supervisors which
could be likewise attributed to the support
of the individual units.
1st Infantry Division Organization
The a)p].ication of the Detachment conceptto units within the 1st Infantry Division
would be limited to only three of the total
of seven aircraft owning units: A Company
of the 1st Aviation Battalion, B Company of
the ist Aviation Battalion and Troop D of
the 4th Cavalry, a total of 70 aircraft of
the 99 authorized the entire 1st infantry
Division. (See Figure 10-6.) This break-
out is unique in that the aircraft owned
by the units, other than the three companies
referred to above, constituted the equivalent
of another full strength Aviation Company
with its 29 aircraft, all of which were
011-13 helicopters except for two ULH-lBs as-
signed to E Company of the 701st. (See
Figure 10-7.)
Applying the general concept above to this
organization, a separate Detachment would
be assigned to each of the three companies
above and a fourth Detachment assigned to
Battalion Headquarters of the consolidated
maintenance battalion, the 701st Battalion.
The primary purpose of this Detachment would
be to provide support for those 29 aircraft
assigned to the five units (four operational
units plus the two float aircraft presently
authorized E Company of the 701st). The
total implication in number of spaces re-quired in this concept will depend to an
extent on the organization of the Detach-
ments themselves. This will be dealt with
later, after a complete review is made of
the type of Detachments and number of air-
craft that each would be required to support.

ist Cavalry (Ailrmobile) Division Orfganization
Applying the Detachmeent concept to the istCavalry (Airmobile) Division, the basic in-formation in the organization of the Divi-
sion was presented in Figures 10-2 through10-5. However, to recap the application and
its potential implication, Figures 10-8 and
10-9 present a consolidated listing of theunits assigned to the Division, identifiedin Figure 10-8 for company size aircraftunits and Figure 10-9 -for companies withless than full company size aircraft units.It will be noted that there was a total of17 different or'ganizations which have suffi-.cient aircraft to assign a Detachment underthe current concept. The 17 units would con-tain 354 of the present 454 aircraft assignedto the 1st Cavalry Division as of July 1967.It will be noted in Figure 10-8 that someliberties were taken in the grouping of or-ganizations for purposes of investigatingthe Detachment concepts.
The aircraft assigned to the Headquarters,Headquarters Company of the Assault Helicop-ter Battalion are assumed to be supported bythe maintenance unit assigned to Company Dof the Battalion since, in actual operations,the two are usually located in very closeproximity. The troop carrying companies,Companies A through C, might well be dis-.persed. In the case of the 1st Squadron of
the 9th Cavalry, the Headquarters unit wasassumed to be attached to the same Detachmentas Troop A for purposes of the analysis. Thiswill be cntirely dependent on the proximityof the Headquarters to the other two troops.Since each of thr' three troops of the 1st
I: Squadron had roughly the same number in typeof aircraft, the inclusion of the -leadquartersunit with the Detachment from the troop

closest to the Headquarters could be an
on--site decision.
Application o:U the Detachment concept to the
Ist Airmobile Division affects approximately80 percent of the total maintenance equiva-
lent capability of the Battalion. From Fig-
ure 10-8, it was noted that the 354 aircraftrequired 132.27 maintenance equivalents for
their support, while the aircraft in lessthan company size (Figure 10-9) required33.93, a total Battalion capability of 166.20
maintenance equivalents.
It is now necessary to investigate the as-
signment of Detachments to these units, inlight of the distribution of aircraft to thecompany size aircraft units in the Ist Cav-alry and 1st Infantry Divisions.
Organization of Direct Support Detachments
The application of the DS Detachment con--cept to the 1st Cavalry and the 1st InfantryDivisions required that new configurationsof the standard TOE 55-500 series be devel-oped which would be adaptable to the alreadyexisting tactical units. In the presentTOE 55-500, provision is made for a Detach-ment to support 25 UH-ls (TOE 55-500R).TOE 55-500E provides a Detachment for thesupport of 16 OV-Is, in conjunction withTOE 11-500D for support in the avionics andelectronics. TOE 55-510T provides a teamfor the support of 16 CH-47s.
The initial step taken in the applicationof the Detachment concept to the Divisionwas a review of the actual aircraft
30-25 £
assignment by unit as previously set forth
in Figures 10-8 and 10-9. The units thathad less than 15 aircraft were consideredtoo small to warrant the assignment of a
Detachment, and would be provided support
by one DS Maintenance Company o-.ganized
undcr TOE 55-407T (the present DS Companies
assigned to the 15th TC Battalion of the
ist Cavalry (Airmobile) Division). The
other aircraft, presented in Figure 10-8,were considered authorized in units large
enough to be assigned Detaclhments.
A review of the number and type of aircraft
assigned to these units, together with thoseof the 1st Infantry Division presented in
Figures 10-1 and 10-6, indicated that UH-l
aircraft were normally assigned in three
ranges: 8 to 12 aircraft, 15 to 20 aircraft,21 to 30 aircraft. The CH-47s, with very
limited exceptions, were normally assignedin full company strength of 16 aircraft.
The 011-13 was assigned in groups of approxi-
mately 10 or 15 aircraft. The OV-l heli-
copters were assigned in full strength com-panies of 16 aircraft, or in units of 3 to6 aircraft each.
On the basis of the above, the TOEs for theDetachments and the DS Companies were re-viewed in detail, identifying the MOSs andgrade structure within each required tosupport the respective number and types ofaircraft, and a modified TO was preparedfor each of the above groups. The actualmaintenance function spaces recoimnended foreach of the DS Detachments is presented inFigure 10-10 for each type of aircraft bythe number of aircraft being supported.

DS DETACHtMENT CONCEPT APPLICATION FACTORS
Application to .st Infantry Division
The units .ithin the 1st Infantry Divisionhaving sufficient numbers of aircraft towarrant consideration for Detachments wereset forth in Figure 10-6 above. Includedon Figure 10-6 was an indication of the rec-.ommended teams which could be assigned toeach of these units. Figure 10-13 presentsa summary of the total number of teams ap-plicable to the 1st Infantry Division. Itis noted that a total of six teams would berequired, containing a total of 170 mainte-nance function personnel. The administra-tive support required for these Detachmentsis a total of 21 spaces (Figure 10-11).
The supply support personnel must be addedto these personnel. Relating the aircraftauthorizations from Figure 10-6 to the sup-ply support requirements from Figure 10-12,a total of 19 supply support spaces are rec-ommuended, 17 of which are basic supply per-sonnel and two are signal specialists.
In the support of the aircraft assigned inless than company-strength units, Figure10-7 indicated that a total of 29 aircraft(27 of which were OH-13s), required the sup-port of a Detachment assigned at BattalionHeadquarters level. It is recommended that,for this number of aircraft, a compositeDetachment consisting of one 011-13 Team Aand one OH-13 Team B, be used in supportof these aircraft, augmented by a Detach-
S ment Commander with a rank of Lieutenant.

In total, the ist Infantry Division would
then require eight teams with a total of
205 maintenance spaces and 27 administra-
tive support personnel.
The supply support requirements of the Bat-
talion level Dctachment could be satisfied
by six basic supply personnel. These per-
sonnel, combined with the 19 required by
the Detachments, provide a total of 25 sup--
ply spaces in support of the 1st Infantry
Division aircraft. These spaces, added to
the maintenance and administrative spaces,would provide a total complement of 257 avi-
ation personnel required to support the 99
aircraft assigned in July 1967. It is -noted
that these spaces are in excess of the 181
spaces presently authorized the DS Company
assigned to the ROAD Division. However, as
pointed out earlier in this Report, E Com-pany of the 701st Battalion, 1st InfantryDivision, was authorized a modified TOE which
provided for aviation supply functions withinthe company, rather than the consolidated sup-
ply activity of the Battalion increasing the
total to 202 spaces (MTOE 55-89G). Thus, thecost of applying the DS Detachm,,ent concept to
the 1st Infantry Division would be an increaseof 55 spaces.
Application to 1st Cavalry (Airmobile) Division
The units within the 1st Cavalry (Airmobile)Division considered adaptable to the DS De-
tachment concept were set forth in Figure 10-8. Also indicated on this Figure were the
number and types of teams which could be as-
signed to the various units, in accordancewith the number and type of aircraft author.-ized. Figure 10-14 is a summary of the total
10-33
I
DS Detachment requirements to support the1st Cavalry (Airmobile) Division for thesespecified units. It will be noted that a Itotal of 23 teams are required which willprovide spaces for 859 maintenance person-nel. Applying the criteria from Figure 10-11 for administrative support, a total of119 additional spaces are required.
Supply support personnel required in thesupport of these Detachments, in accordancewith the criteria set forth in Figutre 10-12,would constitute an additional 90 basic sup.-ply spaces. Two additional sigi ,l special-ists would be required for the Ov-I aircraftand six signal specialist spaces for thesupport of the C11-47, resulting in a totalof 98 supply personnel.
The total staffing requirements, in the ap-plication of the DS Detachment to the 1stCavalry Division, would then be 1076 person-nel in the Detachments.
As previously pointed out, a DS Ccmpany or-ganized under TOE 55-407T, is still requiredin the support of those aircraft assigned inless than Company size units (as set forthin Figure 10-9). This DS Company is author-ized 331 total spaces resulting in a totalDS requirement of 1407 personnel within theIst Airmobile Division. Since the Divisionis now authorized 1428 spaces, this consti-tutes a potential saving of 21 spaces. Thissaving vas actually achieved by the ulimina-tion of the administrative support require-ments at the Battalion le-vel, which is cur-rently being provided th.• four DS Companiesassigned to the 15th TO Battalion. The DSCompany which is required at the Divisioncan be attached to the Consolidated Mainte-nance Battalion as a special unit in supportof Aviation.

The precise amount of personnelsavings cannot be stated without a detailedanalysis of Tkhe specific job areas involved,but it is estimated that from 25",0 to 50"' ofthe administrative support personnel rc quire-Piient cited above could be eliminated. Appli-Cation of this concept to existing Detach-7

support his aircraft. The major require-ments for establishing work priorities re-lated to aircraft mission requirements,control of resources, utilization of man-power and the most efficient use of Organi-zational and Direct Support tools, equip-ment and skills are centralized in one Com-mand.
IMPACT ON AIRCRAFT READINESS
The application of the DS Detachment to the1st Infantry Division resulted in 55 addi-tional maintenance spaces required. In thecase of the 1st Cavalry Division. it resultedin a potential saving of 21 spaces. However,the real significance of the impact of theconcept is in the potential increase in air-craft readiness rates which cannot be meas-ured directly in dollar value when the air-craft are assigned to a combat area. How-ever, for comparative purposes, the costfactors can be related to initial investment.
The potential impact of the DS Detachmentconcept application to the 1st Cavalry Divi-sion and the Ist Infantry Division are il-lustrated on Figures 10-15 and 10-16, asthey would affect aircraft readiness.
1st Cavalry Division
In the case of the 1st Ca.valry Division, 354aircraft out of the total of 454 can be sup-ported by Detachments. The readiness ratesthat were attainable for the various type,model and series of aircraft supported by Do-tachments are compared to those that wereachieved by the Airmobile Division as set
10-39
forth elsewhere in this Report. Assumingthat an equivalent readiness rate can beachieved by the units which have Detachmentassignments, the total potential annual im-plication is a saving of approximately 8,943aircraft days (24.5 aircraft years or 5.36percent of the total 454 aircraft). Thispotential saving can be translated to a dol-lar value by relating the potential aircraftyears saved to the pro-rated investment cost.Considering only the types of aircraft in-volved in the Detachment supported units,weighted by the relative population of each,the average cost per aircraft in the istCavalry Division, Detachment supported, wouldbe $283,867. Assuming, on the basis of pre-sent Army procedures, that the expected lifeof an average Army aircraft J.s nine years,the average weighted cost per aircraft cannow be attributed to an annual investment of$42,652 per year for the Ist Cavalry Divisionaircraft. On the basis of the 24.5 aircraftyears saved above, this represents an invest-ment saving of $1,044,974 per year for eachCavalry Division fielded under the Detachmeitconcept proposed herein. This representsabout 6.4 percent of the total annual invest-ment in aircraft for the Division.
Ist Infantry Division
The relative saving that could be attributedto the 1st Infantry Division would be compar-atively low because of the reduced number ofaircraft associated with the Ist Infantry, incomparison with, the Ist Cavalry Division. Ofthe total of 99 aircraft, 70 would be Detach-ment supported, and the other 29 related toa Detachment at Battalion HeadquPorters. Theaverage weighted cost of these aircraft (De-tachment supported) would be $268,470 per
10-40
aircraft, ($29,830 per year pro-rated over anine year life). The potential increases inreadiness rates of these aircraft are demon-strated in Figure 10-16 for the Detachmentcompared with the Conventional ROAD Divisionconcept. The potential impact of the DS De-tachment on aircraft readiness for the Divi-sion as a whole, represented also on Figure10-16, vould be a potential annual saving of1,923 aircraft days, or 5.3 aircraft years(5.35 percent of the total of 99 aircraftassigned to the 1st Infantry).
At the annual investment of $29,830 per air-craft per year, this would represent a poten-tial saving of $158,099 per year for eachROAD Division in this configuration, (8.56percent of the total annual aircraft invest-ment for the Division). Under the COSTARconcept, with the reduction of aircraft to55 per Division, this saving would be propor-tionately decreased, depending on the mannerin which the aircraft are assigned to theunits.
SUMMNARY
From the above, it is clear that the Detach.-ment concept could increase the aircraftreadiness of both Divisions from approxi-mately 70 to 80 percent. The impact of theDetachment concept on the ROAD Division,with its relatively few aircraft, is muchsmaller than the results attainable by the1st Cavalry Division. However, the increasedpotential combat readiness of 5.3 aircraftyears per ROAD Division is of real signifi-cance to the Commander.
10-41
As a nominal result, the cost avoidance inincreased aircraft readiness for the IstInfantry Division has been shown as $158,099per year, or 8.56 percent of the total air-craft investment. However, the applicationof the Detachment concept will require 55personnel spaces ove.r the total number nowprovided for aviation maintenance support.The 1st Cavalry Division potential costavoidance is $1,044,974 or 6.4 percent ofthe total annual aircraft investment forthe entire Division. In addition, a savingof 21 maintenance spaces can be made throughapplication of the concept, as proposed.Parallel studies should be made of otherorganizational structures not currently sup-ported by Detachments to determine the fea-sibility of expanding the concept to suchorganizations.

The categorization of maintenance i Iems bythe above code permits the comparison ofthe number of typos of items on the basis .
of its primary function rather than thespecific line item number. Therefore, aparticular type test set in a DS detach- .
mcnt might be available in the Direct. Sup-port Compann as well, but identified by adifferent line item number due to the fact
that it might contain a fcw additionLlparts because of the level to which theequipment is authorized. It was considered --
that the availability oL a test set was moreimportaat to acknowledge rather than theavailability of a specifically identifiedtest set w~th a detailed specification of
its capabilities.
