MCC typically manages the oversight of maintenance and many options in between, for example, work package assignment to maintenance, repair, and overhaul organisations (MROs) and aircraft on ground (AOG) spares supply. Again, multiple solutions based on the organisation's constraints.

This 2-day course considers all elements required to develop an effective Defect Control Process within a Maintenance Control Centre (MCC).

Typical evaluation of repetitive defects includes the following:

- Rogue Units. A rogue unit is a single serialized line replaceable unit (LRU) that has demonstrated a history of identical system faults that may or may not result in an exceedance of an operator’s defined number of repetitive unscheduled removals within an associated short service life.

- Chronic Units. A chronic unit is a single serialized LRU that has demonstrated a history of different system faults resulting in an exceedance of an operator’s defined number of repetitive unscheduled removals within an associated short service life.

- Chronic Systems/Aircraft. A chronic system or aircraft is identified by a specific aircraft serial number that has demonstrated a history of repetitive unscheduled maintenance defects within the same system/subsystem during an operator-defined period of time.

a) Achieve effective engagement with Aircraft Recurrent Defects

b) Understand the interface between Reliability - Defect Control & Maintenance Control Centre (MCC)

c) Explain all regulatory drivers for Repetitive Defect Control

d) Enable improvements to your Recurrent Defect Management Process
