Overview of maintenance management in enterprises
Maintenance Management is the process of organizing and coordinating activities aimed at maintaining and improving the operational performance of physical assets (machinery, equipment) and non-physical assets (systems, processes) within an organization or enterprise.
The purpose of maintenance management is to ensure that these assets operate reliably, efficiently, and safely throughout their lifecycle.
Maintenance management activities include:
Scheduled maintenance planning
Implementing preventive maintenance and repairs
Assessing and monitoring asset conditions
Researching and applying new technologies to improve maintenance processes
Benefits of maintenance management

The importance of maintenance in modern business operations
Maintenance not only helps maintain the continuous and efficient operation of equipment and machinery but also reduces emergency repair costs and downtime, during which machines are not producing.
Furthermore, regular maintenance also ensures safety for workers and environmental protection, while laying a solid foundation for enhancing production and improving product quality. This not only helps businesses build a strong reputation in the market but also contributes to sustainable development in the Industry 4.0 era.
Some risks that affect businesses when not implementing a maintenance management system include:
Regarding Manufacturing enterprises:
Production lines may encounter issues, leading to production disruptions, causing delays in deliveries and undermining customer trust.
Regarding Construction enterprises:
Construction machinery and equipment can malfunction due to usage and external factors, causing project delays and increasing the risk of workplace accidents.
Regarding IT enterprises:
Server systems may experience data loss incidents, leading to service disruptions that result in significant time and cost spent on emergency replacements and repairs.
Regarding the Service sector:
Failure to detect electrical equipment malfunctions in a timely manner poses significant safety and health risks to customers, resulting in poor customer experiences and damage to reputation.
