Defense operators of costly and powerful land, sea, and air assets are increasingly faced with conflicting operational constraints and objectives—more complex and costly weapon systems, reduced budgets to fund their operation, and a millennial workforce that is not well equipped to do “maintenance as usual” using legacy tools and methods.
The combination of these factors puts increased strain on maintenance and engineering teams, leading to lower levels of mission readiness, a higher cost of operation, and inefficient use of critical human resources.
