CMRO Seeded Responsibilities

CMRO Responsibilities

Responsibility Usage
Complex MRO Component Technician Used to execute work orders based on component demand. Use this responsibility to access the Component Maintenance feature.
Complex MRO Data Clerk Used in environments where the shift work records are updated by data entry clerks. Use the Data Clerk Workbench to perform component-related tasks such as update work orders based on repair batches, and generate work cards.
Complex MRO Material Marshalling User Replaces the Complex MRO Marshalling Workbench responsibility. Used to perform materials maintenance tasks such as marshalling, demand and supply management (work order material demand), and access the Marshalling Workbench.
Complex MRO Super User Used by heavy maintenance, line maintenance, UMP, MC, and the Aircraft Maintenance Planning Workbench.
Complex MRO Technician Used by heavy maintenance and engine shop technicians to display work orders, and perform maintenance tasks for large jobs. Work orders are assigned to a specific technician.
Complex MRO Transit Technician Used by transit maintenance technicians to work on smaller maintenance visits that last for a few hours rather than days.

Overview of CMRO Business Types

CMRO has grouped 4 primary business types that may exist in the industry as independent businesses or as some combination of the primary groupings. These business types can be used to visualize and explain the roles and tasks within each business type. This is specifically done for organization and simplicity in describing both the design direction of CMRO and to begin to map the CMRO solution to the known requirements of each business.

The business types defined here are of generic nature and are intended to be used as a starting point for communication of the CMRO offering and direction. As with all Oracle eBusiness applications, specific functional groupings can always be customized at implementation, using the standard Role Based Access Control (RBAC) setups.

This chapter groups roles into business types that would typically understand the roles and tasks within each business type. The business types are:

Aircraft Operator

This business type performs operational aircraft maintenance, monitors the airworthiness of all aircraft, is responsible for line maintenance planning and execution, usually performs progressive and light and medium checks, and is responsible for aircraft configuration management, strategic planning support, material handling, records entry, and OSP support.

Associated CMRO Roles

Heavy Maintenance

This business type is responsible for planning and executing Heavy Maintenance (such as C/D Checks and Overhauls) in conjunction with an approved maintenance plan. This may be performed as a separate entity (service provider model) to the Aircraft Operator or as an internal division of the same business.

Associated CMRO Roles

Complex Assembly Maintenance

This business type functions as an engine and large assembly maintenance provider, planning and executing large services and overhauls in conjunction with an approved maintenance plan. This business type will have engineering and planning tools to support maintenance on complex assemblies for customer equipment and internally owned equipment.
