“…Maintenance strategies differ based on the type of engineering equipment intended to be maintained (Kumral, 2009; Anderson and Neri, 1990; Alabdulkarim et al ., 2015). The following maintenance strategies are briefly discussed as per the illustration in Figure 1: Corrective maintenance: This strategy is based on equipment failure and the approach is “Fix when equipment breaks.” Figure 1 illustrates that repairs are either executed immediately or deferred, resulting in a high cost of operation (Kumral, 2009; Anderson and Neri, 1990; Alabdulkarim et al ., 2015). Preventive maintenance: This strategy is based on regular intervals of work execution and the approach is “Work can be planned and controlled.” Figure 1 depicts maintenance work based on equipment condition, proactive change-out of failing components, design-out for reliability improvement, and reliability-centered maintenance.…”

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to propose a system dynamic simulated process model for maintenance work management incorporating the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) technologies.Design/methodology/approachThe extant literature in physical assets maintenance depicts that poor maintenance management is predominantly because of a lack of a clearly defined maintenance work management process model, resulting in poor management of maintenance work. This paper solves this complex phenomenon using a combination of conceptual process modeling and system dynamics simulation incorporating 4IR technologies. A process for maintenance work management and its control actions on scheduled maintenance tasks versus unscheduled maintenance tasks is modeled, replicating real-world scenarios with a digital lens (4IR technologies) for predictive maintenance strategy.FindingsA process for maintenance work management is thus modeled and simulated as a dynamic system. Post-model validation, this study reveals that the real-world maintenance work management process can be replicated using system dynamics modeling. The impact analysis of 4IR technologies on maintenance work management systems reveals that the implementation of 4IR technologies intensifies asset performance with an overall gain of 27.46%, yielding the best maintenance index. This study further reveals that the benefits of 4IR technologies positively impact equipment defect predictability before failure, thereby yielding a predictive maintenance strategy.Research limitations/implicationsThe study focused on maintenance work management system without the consideration of other subsystems such as cost of maintenance, production dynamics, and supply chain management.Practical implicationsThe maintenance real-world quantitative data is retrieved from two maintenance departments from company A, for a period of 24 months, representing years 2017 and 2018. The maintenance quantitative data retrieved represent six various types of equipment used at underground Mines. The maintenance management qualitative data (Organizational documents) in maintenance management are retrieved from company A and company B. Company A is a global mining industry, and company B is a global manufacturing industry. The reliability of the data used in the model validation have practical implications on how maintenance work management system behaves with the benefit of 4IR technologies' implementation.Social implicationsThis research study yields an overall benefit in asset management, thereby intensifying asset performance. The expected learnings are intended to benefit future research in the physical asset management field of study and most important to the industry practitioners in physical asset management.Originality/valueThis paper provides for a model in which maintenance work and its dynamics is systematically managed. Uncontrollable corrective maintenance work increases the complexity of the overall maintenance work management. The use of a system dynamic model and simulation incorporating 4IR technologies adds value on the maintenance work management effectiveness.
