Support, Maintenance, Training

Integrated Logistic Support

It is ISTEC policy that Integrated Logistic Support is applied to all product development and supply. ISTEC use a disciplined approach that influences the product design and develops a sustainable support solution to reduce Cost Of Ownership and maintenance burden whilst optimising supportability.

ISTEC use Supportability Engineering Management tools to produce a product that not only delivers the required capability, but also can be supported and maintained at various levels.

Reliability Centred Maintenance is used to produce equipment and maintenance regimes which reduce down time, erroneous inspections and ultimately support costs.

Ease of Maintenance Assessments are employed to establish the most efficient engineering support regime.

Training Needs Analysis is conducted to ensure the equipment can be used and maintained with minimum but effective training.
