eMRD Electronic Maintenance Requirements Determination

According to the Logistic Engineering Services (LES) commercial provider, “...eMRD has been developed by Logistic Engineering Services (LES) to simplify the application of the Australian Defence Forces (ADF) Maintenance Requirements Determination (MRD) process. eMRD can be installed as a Standalone application or installed to a network to allow multiple users. The eMRD application provides the ability to manage each user access rights to Administrator, Manager or User levels. The primary difference between eMRD and other LSAR applications is the ability of the analyst to view an LCN/ALC by its Physical and Functional structure while simultaneously viewing its associated LSA configuration and data elements. The Tool enables the analyst to maintain a clear perspective of what he is looking at from a top down view. eMRD is used to develop new or manage an existing LSAR. The development of a new LSAR can be accomplished by manually developing the LCN structure, or by electronically importing a text document. An existing MIL-STD-1388-2B, DEF(AUST)5692 or GEIA-STD-0007 LSAR can be freely imported and exported.

Note: DoD uses the term supportability analysis or product support analysis rather than more dated terms such as LSA and LSAR. See MIL-HDBK-502A for additional information.
