Maintenance planning is essential to the success of operations. If the goal is to have a world-class organization, the maintenance strategy has a critical role to play in this task based on business objectives. This strategy cannot be viewed as separate from other functions, but rather as an integral part of A complete approach to high-performance work. Maintenance is a major contributor to business profitability, through its impact on equipment capacity, product quality, safety, health and environment, and production cost. The maintenance strategy must represent the best available techniques, procedures, and practices relevant to the organization's business objectives, and the strategy must define the processes and procedures required to achieve the highest possible degree of maintenance management and effectiveness, while minimizing the total life cycle costs of new assets and the current operating costs of existing assets. This course provides an integrated presentation of the technical, administrative and economic aspects of maintenance and repair work in all stages of the project with the aim of improving maintenance efficiency and improving its economics while identifying different strategies for scientific maintenance and the economic effects of the feasibility of applying the systems approach to increase operating efficiency and control costs. It also aims to achieve the highest quality of the product, eliminate manufacturing and maintenance defects, maintain an excellent condition for the equipment, and prevent errors.
