ARP4176 - Determination of Costs and Benefits from Implementing an Engine Health Management System

Details
Document Number: ARP4176
Revision Number:
Title
Determination of Costs and Benefits from Implementing an Engine Health Management System
Scope
This ARP provides an insight into how to approach a cost benefit analysis (CBA) to determine the return on investment (ROI) that would result from implementing a propulsion Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) system on an air vehicle. It describes the complexity of features that can be considered in the analysis, the different tools and approaches for conducting a CBA and differentiates between military and commercial applications. This document is intended to help those who might not necessarily have a deep technical understanding or familiarity with PHM systems but want to either quantify or understand the economic benefits (i.e., the value proposition) that a PHM system could provide.
