1. A functional FMECA is conducted for the purpose of identifying potential problems, failures modes, effects and causes associated with the functions. This process will help clarify and better define functions as well as their relationships. So as such, a functional FMECA can be performed early in the systems engineering process.
True
False
2. Later during the design synthesis process, if LRUs and components are identified, a physical FMECA can be performed to identify failure modes with the LRU as well as cause and effects along with maintenance actions to mitigate the failure mode.
True
False
3. A Maintenance Task Analysis (MTA) is the identification of maintenance actions required to a system, subsystem or component / LRU. It includes, the identification of required maintenance actions, the types of maintenance actions (for example preventive or corrective), the detailed steps or procedure required to perform that maintenance action, and the identification of spare parts, materials, tools, support equipment, personnel skill levels as well as any facility issues that must be considered for a given maintenance task. Also included in the MTA are elapsed times required to perform each maintenance task which result in mean time to repair values. MTAs cover both corrective and preventative maintenance tasks and, when complete, identify all physical resources required to support a system.
True
False
4. Results of Supportability Analysis
Provides the definition of design criteria for logistics elements such as maintenance personnel, support equipment, supply support, maintenance facilities, training and traing support to name a few
Establish criteria for the design of the supportability infrastructure
Allows for iterations and updates on the basis of new information being available and / or a more efficient design solution that results for the systems engineering process
All of the above
None of the above
5. A supportability analysis technique used to determine the most cost-effective option among different competing alternatives for a system design is referred to as

6. What is the supportability analysis technique that is useful during the initial product design phase as a tool for driving the design through an evaluation of both reliability and fault probability perspectives. From a reliability perspective, this technique can be used to estimate a system’s performance reliability requirements. The probability evaluation determines the likelihood of the occurrence of the undesired event, which can be used to quantify risk or safety hazards.
