Chapter 2 - the Contractor Logistic Support (CLS) and one its application in a study case.

2.2 Characteristics of the study case.

SELEX-SI is one society of the Finmeccanica group, operating in the field of the defense, the electronics and the civil air traffic, with a turnover of approximately 1,2 billions of euro.
SELEX-SI is world-wide leader in the supply of systems of management of the air traffic, of land and naval radars, systems missile, with one customers in beyond 100 Countries.
The successive figure extension centers SELEX-SI in the world.


Figure 2.1: Centers SELEX-SI in the world.

SELEX-SI is a multinational corporation that operates to the fulcrum of the integration process that is rimodellando the European industry of the defense.
The business activity them is expanded, like saying, to world-wide level and little less of the half of the sales it derives from various markets from those main ones, United Kingdom and Italy, like shown in the brought back figure of continuation.


Figure 2.2: Sales SELEX-SI for market.

As far as the merceologici fields, that one in which SELEX-SI more it is penetrated is sure that naval one, from which it comes approximately the half of the total turnover; fields land and ATMAS (Air Traffic MAnagement Systems) constitute parimenti 25% of the sales of the company.


Figure 2.3: Sales SELEX-SI in the various fields.

One of the main characteristics of the present companies in Italy and United Kingdom is the amplitude of the specific competences in everyone of the various fields; this allows to supply systems and services integrated in a position to adapting itself to every particular requirement of the customer.
The offer is completed from the servicings the customer, for the training of the staff, and the maintenance.
The following figure extension centers SELE-SI in Italy:


Figure 2.4: Centers SELEX-SI in Italy.

The plant of Giugliano began its activity in 1977, operating in the field of the telecommunicationses and the products informed to us.
Its staff had specific competence of the entire cycle of life (Life Cycle, LC) of the product: Between 1982 and 1989, SELEX-SI widened the product line realizes to you, until including given units of elaboration, computer and console for applications in the civil field and of the defense.
Between 1990 and 1995, important investments in the automation of the processes and the technology of production were completed, in particular for the production of printed circults to you.
From the 1997 all the activities of industrial logistics have been concentrated in the plant of Giugliano.
SELEX-SI is currently organized in the divisions represented schematically in listed the below figure and of continuation:


Figure 2.5: Divisions SELEX-SI.

The division Customer Support Italy (CSI) is born in the 2000 from the aggregation of the resources and of the logistics activities it is of the divisions of product (Naval, Land and ATMAS), is of those of engineering and production of the plant of Giugliano.
Its mission is to develop and to manage business of the post-sale, being integrated the ingegneristiche competences of the logistics of the systems and those industrial presents in SELEX-SI.
The objective of the division is being the point of reference of the logistic processes, offering to the customer a total service of Logistic Support Integrated (Integrated Logistic Support, ILS) action to guarantee the maximum efficiency and operating availability of the systems: it has been created, in fact, an organization that concurs to supply attendance to the customers for the entire Life Cycle of the systems, in every part of the world.
The scope is to realize one partnership with everyone of the customers, being become integrating part of the support activity, reducing the costs and increasing the performances.
The following figure extension the main activities carried out from division CSI:


Figure 2.6: Main activities of division CSI.

The Integrated Logistic Support assures that the planning of a primary system and the relative logistic support is carried out so as to to diminish the cost of its previewed cycle of life (Life Cycle Cost, LCC).
The integrated system offered to the customer is, therefore, constituted from two elements intimately it correlates to you: the primary subsystem and the subsystem of illustrated logistic support like in the successive figure.


Figure 2.7: Outline block by block of a generic system.

For primary subsystem one agrees together of elements structured that they realize one given function, while the subsystem of logistic support is all the how much necessary so that primary system, during its life, is maintained in conditions of corrected operation.
Examples of primary system are: The logistic support, instead, includes: To the primary subsystem performance is demanded the objective to supply the performance (system) that it assures the satisfaction of the mission that has generated the necessity to plan the system.
That wants to say that the system, through the elements of the primary subsystem, must work with effectiveness in the terms and the prescribed limits of operation in the technical detailed lists of system.
To the primary subsystem, jointly with the subsystem of logistic support, the objective is demanded to supply the performance with continuity in the time.
It objects to you aforesaid do not have logical validity if they are considers you separately: for this reason, it comes introduced a common objective, that it encloses the two previous ones, called system effectiveness (system effectiveness), defined as the availability (availability) of the performances of the system (system performance) in the arc of its cycle of life.
