Maintenance Management and Performance

Start with maintenance planning

The Planner mind map is a useful starting point for exploring the collection. It brings together planned activities, tools, materials and spares, manpower, asset availability and follow-up with stores. Use its branches to organize the different tasks involved in planning, then look back at the connections between them.

Another planner mind map focuses on supervisor activities, including arranging tools and manpower and following up with a planner or subject matter expert. Comparing it with Planner can help you see how the resources present related responsibilities.

Explore quality and identified gaps

The Principles of Quality Maintenance Program mind map describes a guiding process for procedures, worker training and technical direction. The flashcard deck with the same title presents questions and answers on those principles. Start with the map for an overview, then use the flashcards to check what you can recall.

The Identified Gaps mind maps offer another perspective. They include gaps in focused execution, capability and resource optimization, as well as the absence of dedicated roles for maintenance strategy and plant reliability. Compare these points with the planning and quality resources to consider how responsibilities and resources appear across the collection.

Use the quiz alongside the maps

The plant maintenance and administration quiz includes questions on written communication, parts inventory control and areas of maintenance. After studying the maps, take the quiz and note the questions you want to look at again. Return to a relevant map or flashcard when it covers the same material, and use it to organize your notes.

This topic is one section of Maintenance and Reliability in Industrial engineering and quality. The resources on this page give you a way into that unit through planning, maintenance principles, administration and performance. Choose a resource and make a study sequence that suits your needs.
