Weapons Systems Management, MSG-3
Many Air Force and Army weapons systems are already more than 20 years old and will remain in service into their fourth or fifth decade of life. Without proper maintenance, aircraft reliability and availability plunge, the cost to maintain them soars, and safety is compromised. By adopting the Commercial Maintenance Steering Group-3 (MSG-3) methodology and applying it to aging Air Force and Army weapons systems, we can help you precisely schedule maintenance to ensure equipment is available when you need it.
Using this methodology, Intergraph has helped the Air Force implement a maintenance program that increases C-5 availability by seven aircraft per day, yields a 20 percent increase in availability, and saves $1.38 billion during the remaining life of the weapon system.
Our success with the C-5 was recognized by the Air Combat Command, which has given Intergraph a contract to implement the MSG-3 program for the A-10 Warthog.
