Ansvarsförhållande kring förebyggande materielvård på förbandsnivå inom armén / Responsibilities for preventive maintenance in an army unit

<p>The change in course recently taken by the Swedish Armed Forces results in an increased use of equipment, and thereby increased requirements of preventive maintenance. This paper aims to examine the current responsibilities for preventive maintenance in an army unit. The intended effect of this examination is to disclose possible flaws, and to help make routines for preventive maintenance more effective.</p><p>The questions asked in this paper are;</p><ul><li>Who, in an army unit, is responsible for the routine maintenance?</li><li>When is this responsibility valid?</li><li>What demands does the technical service have on responsibilities for the routine maintenance?</li><li>How are these demands met?</li><li>How ought to be responsible for the routine maintenance?</li></ul><p>To answer these questions the author has chosen to use a descriptive method to show the current facts. A theorizing method is chosen to, from described facts, clarify the demands of the technical service on routine maintenance. A comparing method is chosen to compare responsibilities and the different responsibility-posts.</p><p>This paper presents the following conclusions;</p><ul><li>Much of the current literature, concerning the subject, is in dire need of being synchronised and updated.</li><li>Routines for how the supply-responsibility is to be most effectively distributed in the unit ought to be established.</li><li>The user ought to be given more responsibility to choose what routine maintenance should be carried out.</li></ul>
