What is the concept of quality assurance
To prevent defects from occurring from the onset of maintenance operation through its completion
The achievement of quality assurance depends on what factors
Prevention, knowledge, and special skills
What is the purpose of the system administrator/analyst at the organizational maintenance level
Monitor, control, and apply the maintenance data system within the activity
Who has the responsibility as well as many other responsibilities to identify material deficiencies and high man-hour consumption trends
System administrator/analyst
What workcenter plans, schedules, and provides positive control of all maintenance performed on or in support of the activities assigned aircraft
Maintenance control
What branches or workcenters make up the aircraft division

At the I-level, power plants, airframes, avionics, armament equipment, support equipment, and aviators life-support equipment are known as what type of divisions
Production divisions
Where is the purpose of NALCOMIS
NALCOMIS provides OMA, IMA and ASD activities with a modern real time, responsive, computer based management information system
What are the three basic objectives of NALCOMIS
- To increase aircraft readiness by providing local maintenance and supply managers with timely and accurate information required it in their day to day management and decision making process
- To reduce the administrative burden to the fleet
- To improve the quality of up-line reported data
If an I or O level activity does not yet operate under NALCOMIS, under what system do they document their maintenance
Visual information display system (VIDS)
What element is important to ensure successful operation of the visual information display system(VIDS)
Communication between the maintenance/production control, workcenters, and material control
With regard to the VIDS board, what action should take place with maintenance control on a daily basis
VIDS board verification
Upon initiation of a VIDS/MAF at the organizational level, which copies are forwarded to the workcenter
Copies of 1 and 5 are forwarded to the workcenter
What must be done if a maintenance action results in the requirement of a check flight
Notify quality assurance
Upon the completion of a maintenance action and when the VIDS/MAF is completed, which copy is forwarded to maintenance control
Copy 1 of the VIDS/MAF is sent to maintenance control.
What does a red signal tab on an I-level VIDS board or VIDS/MAF indicate
The component inducted is expeditious repair
Upon induction of a non-RFI component to an I-level activity, where are copies 1, 4 and 5 of the VIDS/MAF routed
To the work center receiving the non-RFI component for repair
At the I-level, what happens to a repairable component for which parts have been ordered?
The component should be properly preserved, packaged and sent to the AWP unit managed by supply personnel.
What is the result of inaccurate or incomplete information documented in the Maintenance Data System (MDS)?
Loss of effectiveness of the data and the MDS in general.
At both the I and O levels of maintenance, what is the purpose of NALCOMIS or VIDS/MAFS?
Documentation of on-equipment maintenance actions.
What is the “look phase” of an inspection?
The portion of a special, conditional, corrosion, periodic, phase, acceptance or transfer inspection that involves the search for defects.
What components create the Job Control Number (JCN)?
The organization code, the last three digits of the Julian date, and an activity assigned sequence number.
What is indicated by a JCN suffix?
A subassembly or subassembly repair action completed separately from the major component repair action.
What is a Work Unit Code (WUC)?
A one, three, five, or seven character numeric or alphanumeric code which identifies the system, subsystem, set, component or part of the end item being worked on.
What code describes the maintenance performed on an item identified by a WUC?
Action Taken Code.
What is the proper name for what most technicians refer to as the Manufacturer’s code?
Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE).
What is a Malfunction code?
A three character, alphanumeric code used to describe the malfunction occurring on or in an end item.
