Since 2012, Guangzhou Metro has planned and implemented a lean maintenance information system (LMIS).
(Li and Su 2014) developed a dynamic sign maintenance information system using Mobile Mapping System MMSS) for data collection.

In this paper, a rural maintenance information system will be presented.
Some lower level configurations are also analyzed, such as an information system, vehicle reservation and maintenance operations scheduling.
Eventually, the paper extends its scope to envision integration of the decision support system in a maintenance information system of a manufacturing enterprise.
