In any industrial maintenance, repair work is one of the most important jobs to be carried out regularly. Companies must have strategies on carrying out maintenance work. Most of the times companies do not have any strategy at place and if at all, around 80 per cent of the times, selected maintenance strategies are wrong. Either too much or too little maintenance work takes place.

In some scenarios the maintenance work is wrongly undertaken! Hence, having the right strategy is very important. There are some efficient ways to get the right maintenance strategy such as Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM). RCM is a process used for deciding what must be done to ensure that any physical asset, system or process continues to work job efficiently.
