Summary:Maintainability, reliability and serviceability are engineering and management functions spanning the product or service life cycle. It is a characteristic of equipment design, installation and operation, which is expressed in terms of ease and economy of maintenance, reliability of the equipment and safety and accuracy in the performance of maintenance actions. This paper shows industrial examples of a US automotive manufacturer. An overview is given of the plant maintenance and development, with which a sharp increase in the reliability and overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) could be achieved through the implementation of numerous activities and initiatives e.g. Total Productive Maintenance, long-term planning, design for maintainability, standardization and partnering, root cause focus, condition monitoring and constant adaption to new equipment.
