Abstract

Most industrial assets today are complex repairable systems. Maintenance decisions on these systems / assets are still made on an empirical basis based on the experience and understanding of the maintenance engineers / managers. This leads to sub-optimal decisions and will lead to inefficient and ineffective maintenance. Reliability is a key attribute of such assets. Reliability centred maintenance as a maintenance philosophy and reliability engineering as an engineering discipline have been well developed over the past several decades. However, these are yet to find a place in maintenance decisions of industrial assets on a regular basis. This chapter deals with how reliability centred maintenance and reliability of repairable systems can be combined together to develop reliability based maintenance of industrial assets in an objective way to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of industrial asset maintenance. The methodology is illustrated with a simple case study.
