working together, we devised a solution that
enhances MRO efficiency, while improving
fleet readiness. It's the first win under our
Beyond Break Fix program, a companywide
sustainment and support initiative that
focuses on material availability instead of
transactional parts, thereby enabling us to
better support the warfighter by increasing
aircraft readiness rates. "
The Beyond Break Fix Strategy
The Defense Sustainment team is part of a
winning venture that began in 2018, when
Collins Aerospace was formed through the
combination of Rockwell Collins and UTC
Aerospace Systems.
Maue explains the program began after a
full review of the challenges customers face.
Their customers, currently a mix of 40%
military and 60% commercial, sought innovative ways to deliver capability and meet
their servicing sustainment needs. The
examination led to the company's Beyond
Break Fix program, a performance-based
strategy that ensures customers have the
parts they need to repair their fixed-wing
aircraft or rotorcraft, when they need them.

product that breaks, they send it to Collins
Aerospace for repair. It could be a four-hour

case USAF and Collins Aerospace, share
data and work closely to make sure parts
are available when they're needed without
customers carrying a large parts inventory.
" We innovate in products, we innovate in capabilities
and we innovate in the way we work with customers.
In the sustainment area, we help our customers
solve their ongoing sustainment problems. "

does the repair once the part is available
and returns it to the customer. " It's a very
transactional behavior, not unlike what we
do with our cars, " he said. " But this process
" They take a broken widget off their airplane or their rotorcraft, and there is another widget sitting on the shelf ready to go
into that aircraft, " he explained. " And they
can get that highly valuable asset out there
doing the work it's supposed to be doing.
