6.3.11 Logistic Elements

6.3.11.4 Preparing Repair Documentation

Purpose

The work processes for diagnosis and repair shall be identified, determined and described (see »Analyzing Initial Situation and Logistic Requirements ), taking into account the tools and the measuring and test equipment available at the facilities of the acquirer. While the »Diagnosis Instructions will describe diagnostic testing (for example with the help of fault trees), the »Repair Instructions will outline corrective action and the subsequent testing of the repaired system.

The technical author shall describe diagnosis and repair in simple, replicable steps and illustrate them with additional graphical representations. The use of the measuring and test equipment required for this purpose and the use of the standard and special tooling shall be specified. The descriptions shall be accurate, detailed and unambiguous so that the repairman in the organization of the acquirer will be able to execute them without any errors.

The »Repair Instructions and the »Diagnosis Instructions will be prepared similar to the »In-Service Documentation, i.e. in the following steps: the instruction will be prepared, the data will be acquired, the instruction will be edited and then compiled and integrated.
