Gestão do ciclo de vida : aplicação na MB : a terceirização da manutenção das aeronaves uh-17 empregando um contrato de suporte logístico e a aplicabilidade nas aeronaves sh-16

Abstract

In a scenario where budget unpredictability is increasingly present, the success of a defense system maintaining depends, among other things, on good management of the supply logistics function supply and maintenance. The new navy aircrafts, increasingly modern and complex, increasingly need the logistical support of manufacturers. In addition, the Armed Forces dispute the priority of supplying spare parts and services with several other customers, public or private. In this context, Brazilian Navy signed its first Contractor Logistics Support in 2019, which supports the Life Cycle of the aircraft UH-17, for a period of five years renewable. With a Contractor Logistics Support, since the beginning of operations, the average availability of the aircraft UH-17 shows excellent results. On the other hand, the aircraft SH-16, acquired over than a decade ago, do not have Contractor Logistics Support, and HS-1 Squadron has encountered great difficulties to maintain a satisfactory average availability. This study presents the experiences lived in the life cycle of both aircrafts, with a focus on the elements of the Integrated Logistics Supports and verifies whether Contractor Logistics Support, in line of what was contracted for the aircraft UH-17, is an adequate and feasible alternative to also support the operation of aircraft SH-16, and other aircrafts that will be acquired in the future.
