As military platforms serve longer than intended and new systems come online, the strategic gap between what’s available and what’s needed continues to grow. R.O.P.E.® is Parts Life Inc.’s structured approach to managing that gap through proactive lifecycle sustainment. R.O.P.E.® begins with a full assessment of available data, whether it's a complete technical data package or a single aging component. Our engineers evaluate failure risks, determine replacement strategies, and identify obsolescence issues before they interrupt operations. From there, we move quickly into actionable solutions.
One of the most pressing challenges facing the U.S. military and program managers is rapid obsolescence. As sequestration and other factors drive military budget reductions, the Department of Defense is requiring legacy weapons platforms to perform well beyond their anticipated lifespans. The predictable result is Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortage (DMSMS)—the increasing scarcity of spare parts for expensive, mission-critical assets.
In response to DMSMS concerns, Parts Life, Inc. has developed the Rapid Obsolescence Planning and Execution Method, or R.O.P.E.®. A methodology rooted in producing tangible results, R.O.P.E. is a comprehensive strategy designed to address every facet of obsolescence management and provide users with manufacturable technical data to reproduce parts and components. With an impressive portfolio of several hundred approved NSNs for the DLA, Air Force, and Navy, PLI demonstrates its expertise and commitment for manufacturing parts and components.
Gain direct access to technical experts who understand your mission. Our engineers collaborate with you to solve complex sustainment challenges, accelerate approvals, and deliver reponsive, mission-aligned manufacturable solutions that keep your programs on track.
