NOTE The template has been defined in the context of UK_Defence. Refer to the business context for details of related templates.

NOTE An explanation of a template and the associated instantiation path is provided in the Template overview section.

This template describes how to represent the concept of a fleet component in terms of PLCS model elements (templates, entities, and reference data).

A fleet component is the relationship between a product (or group of products of the same type) and the fleet to which it is assigned, between specific dates.

This information object represents the relationship between a product (or group of products of the same type) and the fleet to which it is assigned, between specific dates.

Figure 1 — A MOOD Business Architect representation of the Business Object: Fleet Component

The attributes of the Fleet Component object are tabled below.

Attribute name	Attribute description	Attribute type	Optionality
Assigned by	This is the reference to the person or organization that assigned the product to the fleet for the defined period.	Relationship to Person or Organization	Optional
Current availability	This is the current availability for the product during its assignment to the fleet. Availability may be quoted as a % value.	intrinsic	Mandatory
Date availability figure taken	This is the date on which the current availability was measured / calculated.	intrinsic	Optional
End date	This is the date on which the product ceased to be part of the fleet.	intrinsic	Optional
ID	This is the identifier of the fleet component.	intrinsic	Mandatory
Identifier.id	This is the value of the id attribute of the Identifier applied to the fleet component.	intrinsic	Mandatory
Identifier.type	This attribute is the type associated with the id of the Identifier given to the fleet component.	fleet_component_id_code	Mandatory
Identifier.source_organization	This attribute is the value representing the source organization that provides the id of the Identifier given to the fleet component. This value is assumed to be a type of Organization_identification_code.	Organization_identification_code	Mandatory
Parent	This is the reference to the fleet, of which the related product forms a part.	Relationship to Fleet	Mandatory
Related product	This is the reference to the product(s) that forms part of the fleet.	Relationship to Product	Mandatory (1:?)
Start date	This is the date on which the product was incorporated into the fleet.	intrinsic	Optional
Target availability	This is the target availability for the product during its assignment to the fleet. Availability may be quoted as a % value.	intrinsic	Optional
