Abstract

This project seeks, through the implementation of a criticality analysis, to control and improve the availability of the equipment, allowing a correct planning and programming to carry out the maintenance activities and also not to affect the internal processes when intervening with repair activities. The research is developed through a quantitative approach since observation is applied in order to collect numerical information. This work was developed in the field, it is a descriptive type of research, its purpose is to observe, describe and determine the level of criticality in the maintenance equipment. In addition to the design, a criticality analysis was carried out on 357 pieces of maintenance equipment using the risk matrix tool, of which 120 were critical according to the evaluation carried out. These critical equipment were prioritized to receive more frequent and rigorous preventive maintenance, with the objective of minimizing possible failures and guaranteeing the company's operational continuity. In addition, an action plan was established to address the deficiencies identified in the noncritical equipment to improve its performance and extend its useful life.
