Abstract
Proper maintenance is the key requirement for better performance of any equipment. The physical state of equipment affects everything, from production certainty to product quality and customer service levels. Hence, the significance of a well-designed maintenance outage plan is principal. Some companies observe maintenance outages as periodic regular events that interrupt production. Execution proficiency is very crucial to meet the business targets and goals in a timely manner. This paper outlines the unique methods to calculate maintenance outages and then adjust these outages in such a manner that demand supply gap is considered and overall productivity does not suffer.
