About PSA Training
Product Support Analysis (PSA) training teaches a systems-engineering process to identify resources required to develop the logistical support systems to complete operational and maintenance tasks to maintain equipment.
PSA influences the design of complex systems to reduce ownership costs and finds cost-effective alternatives to maintain systems and equipment.
Applicable industries include, but are not limited to Manufacturing, Pharmaceutical, Food Processing, Chemical Processing, Mining, Facilities, Weapon Systems, Aerospace, Agriculture, Alternative Energy, Energy Distribution, and Power Generation.
The Goal
Product Support Analysis (PSA) is the set of detailed tasks used to identify the resources required to develop and sustain a support system for fielded equipment.
SAE GEIA-STD-0007 & SAE TA-STD-0017
(Society of Automotive Engineers)
The technical standard: Product Support Analysis (PSA) SAE GEIA-STD-0007 identifies the range of logistics product data elements that can be generated because of the supportability analysis conducted during the design, development, and initial fielding of a system, end item, or product. This standard designs and delivers a standardized definition of data elements or set of data tags for Logistics Product Data which is a subset of Product Support Analysis (PSA.) SAE TA-STD-0017 establishes descriptions of activities which, when performed in a logical and iterative nature, comprise the Product Support Analysis (PSA) process.
Developed to replace the LSA process outlined in MIL-1388, GEIA-STD-0007 covers Logistics Product Data.
What You Will Learn:
- Understanding of PSA disciplines as they relate to the five phases of the Defense Acquisition Management System (DoD Instruction 5000)
- Applications for lifecycle management processes to acquired systems, equipment, and physical assets
- Supportability processes for in-service systems
- Concepts, principles and current reference standards which guide PSA and Logistics Product Data (LPD)
- Optimizing the mix of product support resources for dynamic scheduling of scheduled and unscheduled maintenance
Types of PSA Training
PSA training is a cumulative process beginning with an overview introduction for all team members involved in PSA processes and ending in advanced concepts such as proposed values and measurements in Performance Based Logistics agreements. The PSA course offerings reflect the tiered needs of learners at the beginner, intermediate and advanced levels.
PSA 101 • 3 days • Introduction to Product Support Analysis
PSA 103 • 2 days • Supportability and Sustainment
PSA 201 • 3 days • Advanced Product Support Analysis Implementation
PSA 301 • 3 days • Supportability Optimization
Benefits of PSA Training
