Abstract
With the increase in size, cost and strategic importance of energy projects, a structured approach to planning, design, construction and operation is required. Integrated Logistic Support (ILS) is a management concept providing controls to help ensure that a system will meet its performance requirements and receive effective and economical support throughout its life cycle. A major ILS objective is to ensure the integration within the design process of the various support elements. Techniques enabling the identification of critical areas of deficiency along with some examples are presented.
