Case for Change - Case for Change - Mishaps & Self-Induced Casualties

Situation• Engine fire caused by

improperly installed wiring harness during engine replacement

• There is no MPC for engine replacement in the RB-S PMS manual. This is not unit level maintenance.

• There were three other similar fires caused by the same wiring harness in 2005

For example RNO: 3014405003• THE 47' TOOK THE 25' IN TOW AND RETURNED IT TO THE STATION WHERE

THE BOAT WAS HAULED OUT OF WATER THE FOLLOWING DAY TO ASSESS DAMAGE AND THE MISHAP. THE FOLLOWING DAY THE BOAT WAS TRAILERED TO NESU EM'S TO ASSESS DAMAGE, CAUSE AND FACILIATE REPAIRS. SECTOR MKCS AND NESU EM'S DISCOVERED THE WIRING HARNESS HAD BEEN INSTALLED INCORRECTLY DURING LAST ENGINE CHANGE OUT WHICH CAUSED THE ENGINE WIRING TO CHAFF AND GROUND OUT TO THE ENGINE BLOCK.      

• CAUSE: EXPERIENCE, POLICIES-PROCEDURES, MANAGEMENT-SUPERVISION      

• ADDITIONAL CAUSE:       LACK OF A QUALIFIED BF225 HONDA ENGINEER AT THE STATION, DIFFERENT ENGINEER STARTING AND FINISHING JOB AND PROPER SUPERVISION ALL CONTRIBUTED TO MISHAP.      

• CORRECTIVE ACTION:       THE VESSEL CREW AND STATION DISCUSSED THE MISHAP AND THE IMPORTANCE OF BASIC ENGINEERING CASUALTY CONTROL WHICH IN THIS CASE SAVED THE BOAT AND IT'S CREW. UNIT PLANNING TO SEND AN ENGINEER TO BF225 HONDA SCHOOL. SUPERVISOR ENSURE WORK CHECKED BEFORE PUTTING BOAT BACK IN SERVICE.      

• FIRST LEVEL REVIEWER COMMENTS:       CONCUR WITH ABOVE.       • UNIT COMMAND REVIEW COMMENTS       THIS MISHAP COULD HAVE BEEN

WORSE IF NOT FOR THE QUICK RESPONSE FROM THE CREW. THIS MISHAP ALSO BRINGS TO LIGHT THE NEED FOR A QUALIFIED HONDA OUTBOARD TECH AT THIS UNIT. CURRENTLY, NO MK'S ARE QUALIFIED TO PERFORM MAINTEANCE ON THE OUTBOARDS.

A. COMDTINST M9000.6E, NAVAL ENGINEERING MANUAL

1. THIS SMEF ADVISORY APPLES TO ALL UNITS WITH SCCS INSTALLED.

2. ALTERATIONS TO SHIPBOARD COMMAND AND CONTROL SYSTEM (SCCS) BY REMOVING, ADDING, OR REPLACING COMPONENTS INCLUDING DISPLAY DEVICES WITH UNAPPROVED EQUIPMENT ARE NOT AUTHORIZED.

3. C2CEN IS PURSUING CLASS-WIDE SYSTEM CERTIFICATION AND ACCREDITATION (C AND A) TO CONNECT SCCS TO SIPRNET ON WMEC'S AND WHEC'S. C AND A FOR SCCS IS BASED ON STANDARDIZED SYSTEMS THAT HAVE BEEN SPECIFICALLY APPROVED. ANY UNAPPROVED ALTERATIONS MAY JEOPARDIZE THIS C AND A AND WILL PRECLUDE C2CEN FROM IMPLEMENTING THE SCCS/SIPRNET CONNECTION ON CUTTERS FOUND TO BE IN VIOLATION.ADDITIONALLY, ANY EQUIPMENTS ADDED TO SCCS VIA UNAPPROVED ALTERATION ARE NOT SUPPORTED BY THE CG'S LOGISTICS SYSTEM AND MAY ALSO INCUR FAILURES TO OTHER COMPONENTS OF SCCS DUE TO INCOMPARABILITY. UNITS WISHING TO MAKE A CHANGE TO THE APPROVED CONFIGURATION OF SCCS SHOULD FOLLOW THE PROCEDURES OUTLINED IN REF A.

Acquisition & Configuration Acquisition & Configuration

• Configuration Management (CM) is an important element throughout the life cycle of an asset. CM is comprised of three functions once the aircraft is delivered:

• 1. Controlling configuration changes (ACCB Process)

• 2. Implementing configuration changes (CG-22 & TCTO process)

• 3. Tracking configuration changes (ACMS program) + PDM

• All three programs provide aircraft which are safe, airworthy and in a standard configuration that is supportable.

Operational Suitability ElementsOperational Suitability Elements

• Prime Unit should address all the “ilities” as part of test plan execution in addition to assessing operational effectiveness.

• Ten Operational Suitability “Logistical” Elements:– Availability– Reliability– Logistic Supportability– Maintainability– Interoperability– Compatibility– Human Factors– Training– Documentation

– Safety• Risk assessment assigned to each Critical

Operational Issue (COIs) for ACCB approval authorities to consider prior to implementing in fleet.

Additional Benefit of CM Safety: Mishap AnalysisAdditional Benefit of CM Safety: Mishap Analysis

• Ability to “lock down” the system and to check via a “Component Summary Report” in ACMS for any additional potential candidates that may have contributed to the aircraft mishap.

• This ability to rapidly identify components with common anomalies permits the maximum availability of unaffected assets and maximizes aircrew safety.

SYSTEMSYSTEM• A ‘system’ is a construct or collection of different

elements that together produce results not obtainable by the elements alone.

• The elements, or parts, include people, hardware, software, facilities, policies, and documents; that is, all things required to produce system level results.

• The results include system-level qualities, properties, characteristics, functions, behavior, and performance.

• The value added by the system as a whole, beyond that contributed independently by the parts, is primarily created by the relationship among the parts.

Apply baseline management to items andApply baseline management to items andcapabilities of importance to the organizationcapabilities of importance to the organization

c. Develop a concept of operations d. Plan for development, risk management,

review, verification/validation of artifacts, activities, capabilities and decisions.

e. Determine associated data needs and acquire or provide data artifacts

f. Institutionalize a uniform process for identifying, managing changes to, accounting for, and preserving all artifacts

Page 40: USCG CM PROGRAM

2006 CMBG Conference2006 CMBG Conference

a. Develop logical solutions consistent with enterprise objectives and stakeholder needs

b. Define and allocate requirements to appropriate items, activities, or capabilities. c. Retain the rationale for decisions and assumptions

d. Document attributes, interfaces and relationships of artifacts.e. Uniquely identify each artifact version, instance and associated data f. Baseline approved versions as a basis for change g. Make current (baselined) versions accessible to authorized users

Manage Capability Development and PreservationManage Capability Development and Preservation

Page 41: USCG CM PROGRAM

2006 CMBG Conference2006 CMBG Conference

Manage Change – ALL changeManage Change – ALL change

a. Apply appropriate change management processes to decision making.

b. Document and uniquely identify requests for change

c. Assess impacts, change magnitude, implementation, and total cost impact.

d. Present the facts to decision-maker(s), with the appropriate authority.

e. Control implementation of changes, coordinate with stakeholders, and provide status reporting.

f. Maintain a process to capture, record, safeguard, and disseminate information while protecting intellectual assets, and proprietary and sensitive information.

Page 42: USCG CM PROGRAM

2006 CMBG Conference2006 CMBG Conference

Maintain BaselinesMaintain Baselines a. Systematically verify requirements and attributes of

a baselined artifact. Validate that the customer is satisfied that the right requirements are being met and the process is in place to maintain artifact configuration.

b. Monitor quality and apply effective measurements to aid in ensuring currency, integrity, and continuous improvement using technical and management performance measures.

c. Retain and preserve baseline history and data commensurate with its value to the enterprise and effectively dispose of data assets that are no longer of value.

CLOSING CLOSING

• The purpose of CM w/in the USCG is to provide a means for identifying, documenting

and controlling engineering designs and business process so that the required

operational capability can be ascertained and sustained.  Every change to that

configuration shall be evaluated as to its impact on the original requirements and the ability to

provide the intended capability safely and affordably.
