Organisation-Wide Maintenance Improvement Framework

Risk-Based Maintenance for Electricity Network Organizations

Abstract

In Sect. 3.2.1, the objectives of electricity distribution organisations for maintenance improvement on strategic level are described. A concept of a model for cyclic continuous maintenance improvement is provided in Sect. 3.2.2. In Sect. 3.2.3, the organisational elements that play a key role are described. In order to set the reference point at start and to be able to accurately determine the improvements, a maintenance management maturity model (M4) is developed and described with results in Sect. 3.3. Usually, decisions are taken from top to the bottom of an organisation, while, conversely, the performance reporting occurs from bottom to top. For this purpose, in Sect. 3.4, a methodology for maintenance key performance indicators is elaborated on. In Sect. 3.5, an outlook to the Chap. 4 is given.
