“…This serves as a checking procedure which helps the users evaluate whether the maintenance actions taken have been successful or otherwise. Since its first introduction in the early 1960s in the United States, this approach has been extensively developed and appraised, and is used today by numerous airlines, military air forces and at several nuclear power plants (Nowlan and Heap, 1978;Gradin, 1986;Jambulingam and Jardine, 1986;Reiche, 1988;DTI, 1991). However, it has only been in the last few years that the application of RCM concepts to the manufacturing industry has been considered.…”

It is common knowledge today that application of sound manufacturing concepts and techniques will only provide cost-effective, long-term return when manufacturing functions are totally integrated with the operators, maintenance engineers and other associated personnel. This paper presents a human-centred methodology and its associated knowledge-based tool, to utilize equipment failure information for the purpose of machine down-time minimization. Based upon a structured and rigorous assessment of each breakdown, and combined with total employee participation, continuous improvement of maintenance function and operational effectiveness of equipment can be made a reality.
