ISO 10303-239 Activity Model

ISO 10303-239 Activity Model Coverage

The ISO 10303-239 PLCS Application Activity Model (AAM) is an IDEF0 representation of the business activities that set the scope and information requirements for the PLCS standard. The model is composed of a set of figures and a set of definitions of these business activities and their associated information flows.

IDEFØ provides a graphical notation for function modeling of an organization or system. Activities can be described by their inputs, outputs, controls and mechanisms (ICOMs).

IDEFØ Box and Arrow Graphics

This DEX supports a subset of these business activities and information flows. These are highlighted in yellow in the figures Figure 12, Figure 13, and Figure 14.

The information flows marked with an asterisk are not explicitly represented within PLCS. This information is instead transferred by other means, e.g., handled by a document.

ISO 10303-239 Activity Model Definitions

ISO 10303-239 Activity Definitions

The activity labels in the AAM views above have the following definitions:

Analyze support feedback

analysis of support feedback from individual tasks to determine exceptions from the support solution, exceptional maintenance needs, the impact on operations, and suggestions for improvement

ISO 10303-239 ICOM Definitions

The ICOM arrow labels in the AAM views above have the following definitions:

APSI

set of information, subject to configuration change management, that is established to develop and deliver support for a product in focus

NOTE

This term corresponds to the EIA 649 term "product configuration information" which includes:

product definition information that defines the product requirements, documents the product attributes and is the authoritative source for configuration definition;
product operational information, used to test operate maintain and dispose of the product.

APSI and related information

set of assured and related information used to develop and deliver support for a product in focus, including feedback from using and supporting the product over its life cycle

NOTE Related information includes records of the history of the usage or support of realized products, design and support analysis results and reasons why decisions were taken. Such information includes design and failure analysis records, logistic support analyses, running hours, environment descriptions, operating profiles; test results, records of maintenance activities, resources used, and faults found plus any other content deemed relevant to life cycle support.
