Abstract

This paper discusses the need for an integrated maintenance strategy. The method of developing this strategy is then explored, highlighting the matching of key success factors for maintenance to the overall business objectives. A vision for the future is then developed taking into account reliability requirements of key equipment and the trends and advances in condition monitoring and diagnostic engineering. An analysis of the differences between the current position and the vision becomes the basis for maintenance strategy, setting goals and timescales.
