The OSA-CBM specification is a standard architecture for moving information in a condition-based maintenance system. A more in depth look reveals a way to reduce costs, improve interoperability, increase competition, incorporate design changes, and further cooperation in the realm of condition-based maintenance.
The OSA-CBM standard is written in the Unified Modeling Language for software engineers. This primer is intended to cross the gap between computer scientists and program managers and systems integrators. Part 1 discusses how and why OSA-CBM was developed, how it can benefit project managers, and why it should be used. Part 2 discusses the inner workings of the standard and provides a starting place for system integrators to understand and implement the standard.

Part 1: Project Manager’s Perspective
What is OSA-CBM?
Project managers implementing condition-based maintenance systems must take on the task of integrating a wide variety of software and hardware components as well as developing a framework for these components. OSA-CBM simplifies this process by specifying a standard architecture and framework for implementing condition-based maintenance systems. It describes the six functional blocks of CBM systems, as well as the interfaces between those blocks. The standard provides a means to integrate many disparate components and eases the process by specifying the inputs and outputs between the components. In short, it describes a standardized information delivery system for condition based monitoring. It describes the information that is moved around and how to move it. It also has built in meta-data to
