Abstract
The aim of this study is to discuss and clarify the important features and characteristics of effective approaches in order to perform maintenance management. For this purpose, the relevant literature is examined, classified and analyzed to carry out a comparative study between many methods of the maintenance used in the industry. Deficient maintenance management can severely affect competitiveness of an organization by reducing throughput, increasing inventory and leading to poor performance, Maintenance management of industrial equipment is an important but still relatively neglected by business function In order to achieve world-class performance, more and more companies are replacing their reactive, strategies for maintenance with proactive strategies like preventive and predictive maintenance and progressive strategies like total productive maintenance. While these new maintenance strategies require increased commitments to training, resources and integration. They also tend to improve performance. This article discusses a research project to identify the strong points, weak points between the techniques of maintenance and the relationship between the approaches of maintenance and production methods. A survey was conducted to determine the relationship between the two approaches.
