Fleet Maintenance Management3Introduction to Fleet Maintenance

Introduction.The importance of equipment/fleet maintenance particularly in the defence services, having increasing numbers of complex and sophisticated vehicles and weapon systems, needs no emphasis.

Equipment management encompasses all activities commencing from concept formulation, right through various phases of design, development, trials, acceptance, production, usage and ultimate discard i.e. from womb to tomb.Fleet Maintenance Management4Fleet Maintenance ManagementOverview of Maintenance ManagementThe responsibility of Maintenance Management involves planning, directing, coordinating, guiding, allocating, budgeting, maintaining, economizing and evaluating products, services, or any machineries.Maintenance management is an integral part of equipment management activity which starts at design root level and is an on-going process till the equipment is declared obsolete and phased out of the organization. Cost effectiveness and functionality to be kept in mind while working out maintenance throughout the life cycle of the equipment.Maintenance activity should keep pace with latest technology and sophistication.Introduction to Fleet Maintenance5Introduction to Fleet MaintenanceOverview of Maintenance ManagementEquipment management in defence services ensures that The right equipment is in the Right Place, at the Right Time, in Right Quantity, in the Right Condition and at Right Cost.

The efficient and effective control of equipment, of its operation and supporting resources, to ensure that the users valid requirements are economically met at all times - British Army DefinitionFleet Maintenance Management6Fleet Maintenance Management Definition of MaintenanceA combination of various activities required to retain all equipment available in an organization in as-built condition or restore to acceptable condition so that it continues to have its original productive capacity.

The Responsibility of MaintenanceTo ensure that the equipment and plant is available for productive use at all time and at minimum cost, by appropriate preventive maintenance activities.

To carry out break down maintenance when equipment becomes out of action. Introduction to Fleet Maintenance78 To increase functional reliability of production facilities. To enable desired quality through correctly adjusted, serviced and operated equipment. To maximize the useful life of equipment. To minimize cost of production. To minimize frequency of interruptions. To enhance the safety of manpowerFleet Maintenance ManagementObjectives of Maintenance AgencyIntroduction to Fleet MaintenanceFleet Maintenance Management To ensure high availability of equipment To ensure operational readiness of all equipment at all times To ensure the safety of personnel using the equipment To extend the useful life of weapons and equipment. To keep the number of breakdowns per year at its lowest To keep the yearly downtime at its lowest Achieving all the above objectives at the lowest cost.Objectives of Maintenance AgencyIntroduction to Fleet Maintenance9Fleet Maintenance ManagementResponsibility of MaintenancePerform break down maintenance whenever required.Plan and stock the spares, tools and expendables for preventive and breakdown maintenance.Periodically inspect the equipment for adequate maintenance and advise user for the same.To carry out trials on maintenance of newly procured equipment.Introduction to Fleet Maintenance10Fleet Maintenance ManagementFunctions of the Maintenance Agency.

Maintaining the technical specifications.Keeping record of type of maintenance work done for all equipment.Carryout periodic inspections To plan and implement periodic and preventive maintenance of all equipment Carryout approved modificationsConduct defect analysisIntroduction to Fleet Maintenance11Fleet Maintenance ManagementSalient Features of Maintenance Management

Repair as far forward as possible. Economy of repair Timeliness Minimum MTTR Ensure quality Ensure all maintenance tasks are completed along with repair.Introduction to Fleet Maintenance12Fleet Maintenance Management It is system oriented. It imbibes inter- disciplinary team approach. It makes use of scientific methods to solve the managerial problems of equipment. Increases the effectiveness of equipment in terms of efficiency and cost effectiveness. Deals with complete life cycle of equipment. Result oriented management.Introduction to Fleet MaintenanceSalient Features of Maintenance Management13Fleet Maintenance ManagementIntroduction to Fleet MaintenanceFMM and Human Body as MachineryHuman body is also a machine and carries out the assigned job of each department in a well timed manner. Each faculty is communicating to other when required with out any external prompting It maintains each part automatically It detect any shortcoming in any part automatically It feeds each parts requirement automatically It self manages the maintenance Coordination between various parts are automatic

Human body has a built-in management system14Fleet Maintenance ManagementThe equipment/vehicle is like a child.Cannot communicate.Cannot diagnose.Cannot feed himself.Cannot co-ordinate his own activities.The equipment managers have to play following role:- A mother of the child. A father of the child. A doctor (pediatrician)Introduction to Fleet MaintenanceFMM and Human Body as Machinery151. Requirement Phase2.Development Phase3.In-service Period
