  • Automated logistics support system incorporating a product integrity analysis system
    Patent number: 8560105
    Abstract: A computer implemented system includes an integrated logistics support system and a product integrity analysis system that utilize an integrated database. The product integrity analysis system includes a failure mode effects and criticality analysis (FMECA) application that is operable to access a plurality of distribution references, analyze a first and a second distribution reference from the plurality of distribution references, and calculate a particular distribution for a particular part type in the first distribution reference using an associated distribution of the particular part type in the second distribution reference.
    Type: Grant
