DATA FORMATS AND PRACTICES FOR LIFE CYCLE COST INFORMATION ARP4294

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP)4294 is directed at life cycle cost (LCC) analysis of aerospace propulsion systems and supplements AIR1939.

Specific topics addressed by ARP4294 are listed below:

a
Propulsion system LCC element structure.
b
Information exchange and relationships with:
1. (1)
  Aircraft manufacturer
2. (2)
  Equipment suppliers
3. (3)
  Customer
c
The relationship of the LCC element structure to work breakdown structures.
d
The relationship between LCC analysis and other related disciplines (e.g., technical (performance analysis, weight control, component lives), reliability, availability and maintainability (RAM), integrated logistic support (ILS), production and finance).
e
Classification of the accuracy and applicability of LCC assessments.
