To be able to compete successfully both at national and international levels, production systems and equipment must perform at levels not even thinkable a decade ago. Requirements for increased product quality, reduced throughput time and enhanced operating effectiveness within a rapidly changing customer demand environment continue to demand a high maintenance performance. In some cases, maintenance is required to increase operational effectiveness and revenues and customer satisfaction while reducing capital, operating and support costs. This may be the largest challenge facing production enterprises these days. For this, maintenance strategy is required to be aligned with the production logistics and also to keep updated with the current best practices. Maintenance has become a multidisciplinary activity and one may come across situations in which maintenance is the responsibility of people whose training is not engineering. This handbook aims to assist at different levels of understanding whether the manager is an engineer, a production manager, an experienced maintenance practitioner or a beginner. Topics selected to be included in this handbook cover a wide range of issues in the area of maintenance management and engineering to cater for all those interested in maintenance whether practitioners or researchers. This handbook is divided into 6 parts and contains 26 chapters covering a wide range of topics related to maintenance management and engineering.

Provides the reader with a concise yet informative description of all the various forms of maintenance. Highlights the important elements of each of the various forms of maintenance and how to go about organizing those elements in his plant or facility. Offers the reader with the tools needed to integrate initiatives leading to improved reliability with each kind of maintenance. Provides the reader with tools needed to enhance effectiveness and efficiency in each kind of maintenance. Gives both new and more experienced plant and shop personnel with a tool they can use to develop a consistent understanding of maintenance excellence so they can identify common goals and consistent objectives. Includes forms and formats that can be used for the following: Job Delay Survey, Accountability-Responsibility Matrix, Role Description, Project Control Document, and Work Scoping Form. This book provides an introduction to the concept of "excellence" in the several forms of maintenance used during the life of any system or facility. Unlike most books that tend to focus on just one of the areas of maintenance, this book looks at all the distinct forms of maintenance including: Routine Maintenance, Turnaround Maintenance, Program Maintenance, Project (Maintenance) Management, Reliability in Maintenance, Predictive and Preventive Maintenance, and Precision Maintenance. Rather than simply focusing on "how to get the work done", this concise resource focuses on Maintenance Excellence and meeting its objectives more effectively and more efficiently. Uniquely designed for busy people who want and need to learn more about maintenance excellence but have a limited amount of time to do so, each chapter is designed to provide a stand-alone learning opportunity for individuals who have an opportunity to pick the book up over lunch or whenever the opportunity arises. Additionally, it emphasizes the part that effective and efficient maintenance plays in achieving good reliability so it provides an excellent companion for The Little Black Book of Reliability Management which was designed to be used in the same manner. This set of books is intended to provide the young professionals working in this area with a quick introduction to all the subjects they will need to learn. It is also intended for more senior managers and executives who are not experts in either maintenance or reliability, but need to be conversant with its elements.

The complete Strategic Maintenance Management Body of Knowledge is a six-book set, including Reliabilityweb.com's Strategic Maintenance Management Series. The Business of Maintenance Management: Far too much effort has been spent reacting to failures and maintaining our way to reliability. To truly maintain assets, we need stability. We need to stop creating defects that are unplannable. Business value can only be attained in a stable environment. The Business of Maintenance Management provides the strategies to stabilize organizations and deliver true business value. The Processes of Maintenance Management: Process-dependent organizations are sustainable. People dependency is a risk. The Processes of Maintenance Management starts with the base of preventative maintenance (PM) program development. PM programs are the foundation of maintenance best practices. The next section moves into the actual workflow and processes of maintenance. Both the PM programs and the process are managed with the CMMS, the final section of the book. The Enablers of Maintenance Management: There are various functions that enable maintenance. If they are not implemented and supported, optimized maintenance is unattainable. The most obvious enabler is MRO inventory and purchasing where both stock and critical spares must be optimized. The enabler of sustained quality, training, is covered, along with operator-driven reliability.The 10 Rights of Asset Management: This book covers all aspects of asset lifecycle management, thus ensuring true asset value attainment over lifecycle. A Practical Guide to Organizational Engineering: This book describes how to define a best-in-class organization and how to develop the necessary skills within your team. Discover how to develop meaningful meetings and KPIs, in support of the business process, and how to use these to engineer an efficient and effective organization that is sustainable and evolves with your needs and level of maturity.Failure Codes to Failure Modes: Without actionable data, there is no way to identify worst offenders in Pareto format. Failure Modes to Failure Codes explains exactly how to start capturing a true failure mode in support of reliability-centered maintenance (RCM). All that's required is the knowledge to configure the CMMS product.
