Methods for Assessing the Effectiveness of the Organization of Maintenance and Repair at the Enterprise

Abstract

–Maintenance and repair of equipment as a field of activity has come a long way in its development and formation. Currently, this type of activity is very costly in any industrial enterprise, since any malfunctions or downtime of equipment can lead to multi-million dollar losses. This explains the current heightened interest in the management of the operation and repair of equipment in industry. Ensuring a rational organization of maintenance and repair of equipment required the formation of a system of norms and standards governing this area of activity. In today's world, in pursuit of high rates of efficiency, profitability and productivity, most large enterprises develop their own approaches to measure them. Evaluation of the effectiveness of the enterprise is important from the perspective of both external, for the enterprise, and internal. The first is understood as the competitiveness and image of the entire enterprise in the market, the second – internal stability, productivity and efficiency at all levels of the organizational and production system. Calculation of the assessment of the effectiveness of the activities of some services in the enterprise allows you to identify problem areas and factors affecting this activity in the organization, be it management decisions or problems in the production process itself. It should be noted that the management of enterprises that have technically sophisticated equipment in their fixed assets pays close attention to the effective management of the maintenance and repair of this equipment, which, with methodological knowledge, allows them to get a significant return with relatively small financial investments.
