<p>This thesis perpetuates research aimed at deploying a diagnostic expert system for the MK 92 Mod 2 Fire Control System to 28 Oliver Hazard Perry class fast frigates. Referred to as the Maintenance Advisor Expert System   (MAES) , this expert system is being jointly developed by the Naval Postgraduate School and Port Hueneme   Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC PHD). This thesis focuses on the long-term implementation issues related to deploying MAES to the fleet, integrating MAES into the formal training pipeline, and transitioning life cycle Support for MAES to NSWC PHD.  MAES long-term implementation issues, which include hardware, software, documentation, and training requirements, are examined within the context of implementation factors and  risks historically associated with deploying expert systems. Plans for deploying MAES to the fleet and integrating  MAES into the formal training pipeline are provided. As part of the documentation necessary to transition life cycle support of MAES to NSWC, a System Level Description document is also provided
