The Maintenance Function in the Context of Corporate Sustainability: A Theoretical-Analytical Reflexion
Abstract
The paper presents an analytical reflection, based on the context of knowledge management, risk management, quality management, intra-organizational relationships through attributes associated with corporate sustainability. For reasons of theoretical essay, research was supported in mapping the primary references and analysis of different interpretations of sustainability reports from companies associated with the Ethos Institute (Brazil). This paper presents a reflective approach to assess the importance of integration between the maintenance and production, considering some attributes of corporate sustainability.
