The Effect of Implementing a Maintenance Information System on the Efficiency of Production Facilities

Abstract

The paper deals with the topic of facility management focusing on maintenance area and its importance for increasing company competitiveness. The importance of functional company facility management has risen dramatically in recent years. The reason for this is the increased pressure on cost reduction and additional value to the core business of the enterprise. The paper introduces a current theoretical literature-based framework for this topic in order to examine and analyse the supporting activities and processes connected with production facilities and maintenance particularly. The main aim of the paper is to show the importance of a maintenance management information system and the effects of its implementation on the overall equipment efficiency of the facility in the enterprise based on primary data gathered from a selected company. The data was processed in a case study using information from the maintenance department of the selected enterprise in the plastic-processing industry in selected years (2006, 2008, 2009 and 2010). As it shows, this particular system was intended to provide relevant information to workers responsible for adjusting and repairing machines, as well as to the management of the enterprise in order to help them to make the right decision. The results of the data analysis proved the importance of computerized maintenance management information system (CMMIS) implementation in improving Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE) metrics and the efficient control of its production system

A New Scoring Approach to Calculate Overall Equipment Efficiency: A Case Study

“…Firstly, introduced by Seiichi Nakajima in 1988 as a tool for measuring the success of TPM, OEE is one of the widely accepted metrics in this field (Zandieh et al, 2012). OEE is the performance indicator tool to manage and monitor the equipment performance (Slaichová and Marsíková, 2013). Furthermore, the OEE assessment is not limited to evaluating production performance.…”

“…OEE and TEEP are commonly used two metrics, closely related and both reporting the overall utilization of facilities, time and material for manufacturing operations. In fact, OEE and TEEP indicate the gap between the ideal and the actual performance (Slaichová and Marsíková, 2013).…”

Implementation of Maintenance and Repair of Workshop Tools on Machining Expertise Vocational High School in Yogyakarta Industry-Based

“…Reference [6] shows that customer satisfaction with maintenance performance has a relationship with the type of workshop maintenance strategy used by management. Therefore, the maintenance management system and its application are very important for the overall efficiency of facility equipment [7].…”

Effect of Computerized Maintenance Management System on a Cement Production Plant

“…The use of CMMS has attracted so much attention owning to the fact that enormous amount of maintenance data need to be analyzed fast and efficiently in order that decisions are reached [10]. Šlaichová and Maršíková [11] reported on the effect of implementing a Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) on the efficiency of production facilities. It was discovered that great improvement was achieved in the facilities Key Performance Indices (KPI) by the implementation.…”
