​OBJECTIVE: Strive to level set the sustainment community's understanding of the Department's Condition-Based Maintenance Plus (CBM+) progress toward the ultimate goal of executing predictive maintenance. During this session, subject matter experts will provide an overview of their enterprise-level efforts to leverage CBM+ policy and transform maintenance from predominantly a reactive and unscheduled posture to a condition-based predictive maintenance environment that leverages large diverse data sets and advanced capabilities such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and other techniques.

ABSTRACT

In 2007, the Department of Defense instituted a Condition-Based Maintenance Plus program in policy.  Since then, the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) and the Military Services have worked together to build the foundational elements necessary to create an environment where reactive and unscheduled maintenance can be replaced with predictive maintenance executed at the most opportune time and location with the right people, parts, and tools.  Despite continuous progress toward this goal, we have yet to fully make this cultural shift.  We must now ask ourselves, "How does the next leap happen to enable true predictive maintenance using advanced capabilities?"  Accelerating the pace to predictive maintenance requires that we examine the necessary enablers and examine what we have been able to accomplish to date.  Our enterprise must collaboratively discuss lessons learned (successes and failures), and vector our future efforts to more rapidly achieve our predictive maintenance goals and objectives.  In this forum, the OSD and the Military Services will provide recaps on their past journeys and their plans for furthering the future of predictive maintenance efforts.
