Derco is a member of the Herc Solutions Team providing complete fleet management and contractor logistics support for Canada’s entire fleet of CC130 aircraft. The program, known as the Optimized Weapon System Management (OWSM) Primary Air Vehicle (PAV) was designed to implement a joint management concept to support functions of material, documentation, and services including engineering and maintenance to sustain the CC130 PAV. The joint management concept focuses on providing operational availability of fleets through optimization of the end-to-end process, maintaining, and enhancing operations capabilities.
Objectives of the CC130 PAV OWSM are to provide support to the Canadian Forces (CF) CC130 operations by developing, implementing, and achieving on-time and on-budget performance for scheduled maintenance programs meeting the CF’s requirements on aircraft reliability and availability while maintaining established spares accessibility for these standards. The contract reduces ownership costs, optimizes cost performance, increases CC130 availability, and continually monitors technological advances in capabilities.
For the CC130 PAV OWSM Derco is responsible for all program material support, which encompass activities required to provide airworthy consumables and repairables to the CF. Material support functions are applicable to the following:
Provision and support for all CC-130 consumables required to support third line (depot level) inspection and repair activities
Provision and support for all unique consumables for first (organizational) and second (intermediate) line activities
Provision and support for all unique repairables items for first, second, and third line activities
Repair and Overhaul component management
In addition, Derco ensures integration of all activities with the Canadian Forces Supply System (CFSS) and maintenance of parts data within the CFSS Information Management/Information Technology (IM/IT) system.
Performance Based Logistics
Derco tailors its PBL solutions to each customer’s unique requirements. Each PBL solution is created around our customer's individual needs with agreed upon performance metrics that may be related to an incentive structure.
Derco PBL solutions include:
• Vendor managed inventory
