Abstract
Maintenance control plays a key role in achieving the stated objective of effectiveness and efficiency of the maintenance system. In a recent paper, Gits proposed a reference framework that guides in the design and structuring of maintenance control. The framework is conceptual in nature and its use in practice is limited. Poses Gits’ framework as a set of mathematical programming models. Extends some of Gits’ procedure for maintenance control, then outlines the required expansion in the maintenance management information system (MMIS) in order to provide the needed data to execute the models. The models provide operational plans and schedules ready for implementation.Keywords
