Maintenance Cost Estimate Editor
The Maintenance Cost Estimates (MCE) analysis is used to generate and compare the
costs of maintenance procedures for an item or groups of items in a system, across its
lifetime of operation. A lifetime is defined by aggregated mission profiles assigned
within the Mission Profile Definition (MPD) tool. The MCE analysis is an estimator and
is does not contain procedural steps or decision logic, unlike the RCM analysis, nor is
it intended to be used as a rigorous maintenance analysis tool.
To open the Maintenance Cost Estimate editor:
- Select "Analyses" on the Main Menu
- Select "Maintenance Cost Estimate"
