Maintenance Management System

I. Technology What role will technology play An example is interfacing process control computers to a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) for integrated condition monitoring, which will lead to a sound predictive maintenance program. 

IS refers to the software packages and databases that provide the functionality to implement the business processes. These include such packages as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), Electronic Document Management Systems (EDMS) and Maintenance Management Systems. 

EDMS = Electronic Document Management System MMS = Maintenance Management System BMS = Building Management System RCM reliability-centered maintenance SHE = Safety, Health and Environment OEM = Operation and Maintenance CMP = Good Manufacturing Practice IQ= Installation Qualification OQ = Operational Qualification... 

EDMS, CAD and Maintenance Management System (MMS) with the BMS enables the documents and databases providing this essential information to be automatically available when the alarm is triggered. 

Throughout this chapter, reference has been made to many electronic and computer applications with which plant and facilities engineers need to be familiar. Notable among these is the computerized maintenance management system (CMMS), which is often used by plant engineers to schedule and control maintenance and operations in plant engineering areas. This system is described in some detail in Section 3.4.

Basically, CMMS/EAM provides computer software programs designed to assist in the planning, management, and administrative procedures required for an effective maintenance process. The need for a maintenance management system, whether manual or computerized, is determined by the need to perform effective maintenance on assets, equipment and facilities. We can think of CMMS/EAM as providing the business system for maintenance operations. 

These basic modules provide the foimdation for an effective maintenance management system. Many other system functions are offered, depending on the CMMS sophistication and intended application. CMMS software packages are now being sold by more than 300 vendors for applications on personal computers, minicomputers, and mainframes.

Use of the best operations and maintenance management systems relevant to safety. 

Record information from the facility s computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) Collect copies of relevant job safety analyses (JSAs), hazards analyses, and other safety evaluations. 

All repair and supply activities were subject to detailed tracking in two separate databases Aviation Computerized Maintenance System (ACMS) and Aviation Maintenance Management System (AMMIS). The ACMS database tracks all individual parts installed on individual aircraft, flags the required maintenance, and records the history of repairs using each part s unique serial number. The AMMIS database in contrast tracks every step of the process once the part comes off the aircraft. It tracks demand requisitions (orders) placed to the warehouse, and the shipment of good parts to the air stations and maintenance facility, as well as the receipt of failed parts (carcasses), their shipment to vendors or in-house for repair, and their induction back into the system. Historically, there was no connection between the AMMIS and ACMS systems, and there was no advance information regarding impending demands or repair lead times.

On the other hand it is known that for a significant number of organizations every activity or important action realised has its reflection on its information system it means that the enterprise information system is a basic element to consider for the implementation of a maintenance management system. In fact, the most desirable situation is the complete integration of the maintenance management operations into the general information system (Vanneste, 1995, p.248). 

For this MMM it is considered the main goal as to improve continuously the maintenance system and that it depends on the fulfilment of other three goals (identified by a dependency fine) to decrease the total maintenance cost, to increase the assets availability and to attend property the non confor mances detected in the maintenance management system.

Analyzers database implementation Normally the data provided by the computerized maintenance management systems (CMMS) are not sufficient to provide the information needed to make the right decisions regarding improving analyzers reliability. The combination of the CMMS and an analyzer database provides a very powerful tool. Today, there are several commercial instrument database software available in the market. Alternatively, an analyzer database can be developed in-house using common database software such as Microsoft Access. An analyzer database should contain the following basic information ...
