What is the purpose of Installed Discrepant Parts Listing (I/DPL)?

• A. To provide the ALRE community with a list of discrepant or obsolete components on a quarterly basis
• B. To track pilot training records
• C. To document quality issues monthly
• D. To compile mission readiness reports

Answer: (A)

Installed Discrepant Parts Listing is a scheduled report that flags components already installed on equipment which are either discrepant with current specifications or are obsolete. The main purpose is to give the ALRE community a current, consolidated view of these parts so maintenance and supply teams can take timely corrective actions—replacing or substituting parts as needed, updating records, and coordinating removal or decommissioning as appropriate. Publishing it on a quarterly basis keeps information current and helps ensure safety, reliability, and proper configuration control across the fleet. The other options describe different activities (training records, monthly quality issues, mission readiness reports) that aren’t the function of this listing.
