Reliability and maintainability Hitlist bad actor tool (HITBAT)

HITBAT is a personal computer (PC) database. It not only prints out four data pages of the reliability and maintainability (R&M) Action Plan and the R&M Hitlist, but also displays to the screen interacting input forms which act like spreadsheets to compute and display information. The tool installs itself on a PC and brings up the first menu. There are four menus which guide the user through the process. The output can be either collected and stored on disketts, left on the hard drive of the computer, or stored on a VAX supporting Kermit protocol. All of the operations mentioned are accomplished by menu selection. The databases stored on disks can be combined to make a larger database. There are input forms for adding information into the database. They consist of a data sheet which contains such information as work unit codes (WUC), master stock number (MSN), mean time between failure (MTBF), goal mean time between failure (GMTBF), and many other data items. The second is a sheet which ranks the items according to the R&M 2000 goals. The third is a corrective action and interactive funding profile. It allows the required funding to be entered by fund type, year, and funding status. The total funded and unfunded amounts are continuously displayed by year and by fund
