Abstract

Purpose – This paper aims to discuss and bring to the attention of researchers and practitioners the data management issues relating to condition‐based maintenance (CBM) optimization.Design/methodology/approach – The common data quality problems encountered in CBM decision analyses are investigated with a view to suggesting methods to resolve these problems. In particular, the approaches for handling missing data in the decision analysis are reviewed.Findings – This paper proposes a data structure for managing the asset‐related maintenance data that support CBM decision analysis. It also presents a procedure for data‐driven CBM optimization comprising the steps of data preparation, model construction and validation, decision‐making, and sensitivity analysis.Practical implications – Analysis of condition monitoring data using the proportional hazards modeling (PHM) approach has been proved to be successful in optimizing CBM decisions relating to motor transmission equipment, power transformers and manufact...
