The growing demand for IT tools for maintenance management in the workplace has led to the development of a wide range of software, both of a general nature and designed for specific purposes.
In the long term, monitoring can be used as effective asset management tool to optimise spending on maintenance and repair.
Grasslands restoration is a key management tool contributing to the long-term maintenance of insect populations, providing functional connectivity and mitigating against extinction debt across landscapes.
The maintenance management system framework which highlights the maintenance strategies and tools and is required to effectively maintain the RVS machine when used in surface and underground mines is depicted in Fig. 4.
Conversely, in many semi-natural types of grassland, especially in Europe, the maintenance or reintroduction of large herbivores is a widely applied management tool, aiming to preserve an open, species-rich landscape (Ostermann, 1998; WallisDeVries, 1998).
A comprehensive predictive maintenance management program utilizes a combination of the most cost-effective tools, i.e. thermal imaging, vibration monitoring, tribology, and other nondestructive testing methods, to obtain the actual operating condition of critical plant systems, and based on these factual data, maintenance activities on an as-required basis are scheduled.
That includes tools for dispatch, scheduling and fleet visibility, as well as inspection and maintenance management.
In addition, an intelligent synthesis and management tool is developed to design the proposed system and to judge the system's operational maintenance decisions.
It is a management tool that also covers administrative issues such as human resources, financing of health services, equipment procurement and maintenance.
