What is AeroLogLabTOOL®?
AeroLogLabTOOL® is a collaborative tool designed to develop the entire set of activities, tools, analysis, and developments involved on the supportability of complex aerospace systems.
AeroLogLabTOOL® was created due to the absence of a collaborative and open platform that deals with product support in the design, development, manufacture, deployment, operation and support, modernization and disposal of complex aerospace systems, in a shared, integrated, comprehensive, transparent and total way.
This is a problem because, in most cases, complex aerospace systems` supportability still occurs in a confusing, delayed, amateurish and non-consistent manner in a large part of the aircraft industry, in the fleet management companies of these systems and in the academy.
The knowledge is significantly low, almost not shared, not compliant and almost ignored by the academy (in most engineering institutes).
Industry, with rare exceptions, prefers to misrepresent the issue and not brag about the grave consequences unless it is too late.
The problem lacks a shared knowledge management framework so that it can evolve and become an organizational and academic culture for both developers and operators and fleet maintainers of complex aerospace systems.
What are the main advantages of AeroLogLabTOOL®?
AeroLogLabTOOL® is designed to accommodate all state of the art concepts in terms of supportability for complex systems. It guides you in order to define everything related to the support aspects of the system since the conceptual early stages of the development.
Step by step, the user will follow all the integration problems affecting and being affected by supportability issues.
More than just a tutorial based on the literature, it will count on the practical side of the developer and operator by making use of the best practices thanks to the collaboration character of the tool.
How expensive is it to use AeroLogLabTOOL®?
AeroLogLabTOOL® use is mostly free. For the "freemium stuff" module, some charges may apply.
How is the expected environment for AeroLogLabTOOL®?
Is it possible to run AeroLogLabTOOL® offline?
Not yet, but depending on the demands, Windows, Linux, and Mac applications may be built in the future.
What are the requirements to run AeroLogLabTOOL®?
Is there a mobile version of AeroLogLabTOOL®?
Not yet, but depending on the demands, a iOS, Android, and Windows Phone application may be built in the future.
Is AeroLogLabTOOL® suitable for just Defense, or also for Commercial Systems?
AeroLogLabTOOL® is for Complex Systems that require sound Integrated Product Support to successfully operate. It does not matter if it is a defense or a commercial System.
What is the difference between AeroLogLabTOOL® and DAU´s IPS roadmap?
Some features and information are similar and come from same sources and/or standards, but AeroLogLabTOOL® is focused on the identification of the System`s Supportability Readiness Level and the guidance and monitoring the development of a consistent IPS plan for each life cycle phase.
How does the Fremium Stuff work?
These Tools are presented in a free, but limited version here. If you want to explore the full content of these tools you will be directed to the company's site to proceed in terms of registration, charges, etc.
How can I contribute to the AeroLogLabTOOL®?
AeroLogLabTOOL® is a collaborative tool, so the more it's used, the best it should become. If you want to provide a new tool to be implemented on AeroLogLabTOOL®, please contact AeroLogLab-ITA
Is it possible to donate resources to the AerologLabTOOL®?
AeroLogLabTOOL® is a collaborative tool designed to develop the entire set of activities/tools/analyses/developments involved on the supportability of complex aerospace systems.
Since "there is no such thing as a free lunch" we do need resources to provide and continue to provide the service. If you are interested, please contact AeroLogLab-ITA.
What data is required from my system project to run AeroLogLabTOOL®
Am I going to be able to see other system projects data running on AeroLogLabTOOL®?
Are they going to be able to see my project data?
You will need to provide information about the supportability requirements of your system project and some more information about the tasks performed (or not) according to the life cycle phase and IPS elements involved.
Yes, some modules and inputs will be open in order to provide the collaboration aspect of the tool.
