 Line Maintenance Execution

- Transit Technician selects or creates Line Maintenance

Visit
- Views work Orders in context of Line Maintenance Visit
- Creates Non Routine Work Orders
- Requests Deferrals where needed
- Can log in / log out to create resource transactions or
data clerk
- Records time after the work is performed
- Technician can close visit after completing and recording
work
 Base Maintenance Execution

- User logs into “My Work Orders” UI

- Sees only work orders assigned to self or qualified to work on
- User is guided through process by “smart defaulting” buttons.
(parts change icon is only active if a parts change is required.
QA Icon is only enabled if QA Plan needs to be recorded)
-User performs:
-Parts Change
-Records Quality Data / Sign Off
-Logs Non Routine
- Accesses Relevant Documents
-Adds additional Material Requirements
 Overhaul Maintenance Execution

- Mechanic chooses primary and secondary disposition for

removed Part based on the condition and further actions
- A non routine work order will be generated for components
Which require inspection, repair, or scrap
-The off/on log is automatically updated based on the
removal and Installation details
