5.2 Major Project Issues

Description

Remedial Action

The schedule to achieve an Australian Military Type Certificate and Service Release in 2011 will be adversely affected due to the inability to generate the required aircraft rate of effort.

Resolve technical and spares issues that restrict aircraft availability. Streamline Commonwealth and Industry support processes to maximise available flight opportunities.

The schedule to achieve an Australian Military Type Certificate and Service Release in 2010 will be adversely affected by failing to achieve a sufficiently mature MRH System.

Measure progress against capability Key Performance Indicators. Maximise opportunities to use certification processes of other NH90 nations. Maintain focus on achieving capability milestones and targets.

The technical and flight operational airworthiness    will be affected by the immaturity of the MRH90 flight manual for Service Release leading to an impact on schedule, performance and supportability.

The project and Australian Aerospace are developing an Australianised Aircrew Information Set.
