Availability-based Maintenance
Availability-based Maintenance is a type of maintenance strategy that focuses on maximizing the availability of a system or asset. It is based on the idea that the availability of a system or asset is the most important factor in determining its performance. Availability-based maintenance involves the use of predictive maintenance to identify potential problems before they occur, as well as preventive maintenance to reduce the likelihood of failure. It also includes corrective maintenance to repair any existing problems. The goal of availability-based maintenance is to ensure that the system or asset is available when needed and downtime is minimized. This type of maintenance strategy is often used in industries such as manufacturing, transportation, and energy.
