Abstract
A computer-based method for determining an effect of operational readiness for a vehicle in a fleet of vehicles based on a component replacement simulation is described. The method includes querying, using a fleet performance optimization tool, a maintenance data database. The method also includes analyzing the data set using a power law process to predict a next component removal for each vehicle based on hours of operation for each vehicle. The method also includes determining an effect of operational readiness for the selected vehicle based on the simulation. The method further includes ranking each vehicle in the fleet of vehicles based on the operational readiness of each vehicle. The method also includes displaying, based on the ranking, the operational readiness of each vehicle on the user interface to facilitate actual replacement of at least one component on at least one of the vehicles.
