Abstract: This research is based on the concept of computer-aided acquisition and logistics support (CALS) information management methods, to establish the information interactive sharing relationship between aerospace industry, customers and sub-contractors, total logistics support (TLS) system is developed to provide the information platform for a variety of military aircraft maintenance management. As for the maintenance data record collection is used mainly to establish a database of advanced materials acquisition and other related information that can be inputted into maintenance data collection analysis system (MDCAS) and TLS for further utilising. This paper provides the overall applied benefits of TLS and the major applications are to access required information promptly, via data collection, storage, statistics, and analysis, and required information transfer so as to improve the integrated logistic ability of aerospace industry and enhance overall competence in logistics of military aircraft maintenance management.
