VOSLOO, M.M.  e  VISSER, J.K.. The development of a maintenance philosophy. R&D j. (Matieland, Online) [online]. 1999, vol.15, pp.27-34. ISSN 2309-8988.

Competitiveness in the world market is crucial for a business enterprise. This includes maintenance where there is substantial scope for improvement. Many solutions are offered to the maintenance organisation within a company, and these contain ideas that might be conflicting. A unique maintenance philosophy forms the framework for each company within which the company can develop specific maintenance policies for the technical systems. It must address the maintenance system and its interactions with the rest of the company and the environment. Factors that must be addressed are identified as part of a conceptual model. Through using this conceptual model, a company can direct the development of a unique and "comfortable" maintenance philosophy.
