Resumo

This paper explores supportability of an aircraft system aiming to proactively incorporate it in concept definition in the Systems Engineering Processes. System-Theoretic Accident Model and Process (STAMP) approach provided the foundation for the analysis conducted herein, strengthening the perspective on how to avoid value losses related to support activities. Results bring important life cycle concerns into consideration for a “design-in” perspective for an aircraft system in conceptual studies.
