The needs of the consumers about the functionality of a product and increase maintenance costs of equipment caused the prices of products and treatments to be expensive. Therefore, the company considers the lease rather than buy it. Leasing provides interesting strategy when dealing with expensive equipment. Policy maintenance that is done to the product that has decreased performance. Minimum repair done to fix failed equipment in order to return to operational condition, while imperfect preventive maintenance to improve the operational conditions of the equipment to avoid failure. Time duration for a minimum repair neglected. The lessor will charge a penalty (penalty cost) if the lease equipment failure. Mathematical model built for the minimization cost of maintenance policy. In the final part, the numerical experiment are given to show the maintenance policy taking into account the rate of usage (usage rate) by knowing the minimization the resulting costs.

This article presents a case study determining the optimal preventive maintenance policy for a light rail rolling stock system in terms of reliability, availability, and maintenance costs. The maintenance policy defines one of the three predefined preventive maintenance actions at fixed time-based intervals for each of the subsystems of the braking system. Based on work, maintenance, and failure data, we model the reliability degradation of the system and its subsystems under the current maintenance policy by a Weibull distribution. We then analytically determine the relation between reliability, availability, and maintenance costs. We validate the model against recorded reliability and availability and get further insights by a dedicated sensitivity analysis. The model is then used in a sequential optimization framework determining preventive maintenance intervals to improve on the key performance indicators. We show the potential of data-driven modelling to determine optimal maintenance policy: same system availability and reliability can be achieved with 30% maintenance cost reduction, by prolonging the intervals and re-grouping maintenance actions.

Must the water networks be fail-proof or must they remain safe during a failure? What must water system managers try to achieve? The present paper introduces a methodology for the hierarchical analysis (in time and space) of the preventive maintenance policy of water supply networks, using water supply system performance indices. This is being accomplished through a technical–economic analysis that takes into account all kinds of costs referring to the repair or replacement of trouble-causing parts of the water supply network. The optimal preventive maintenance schedule suggested by the methodology is compared with the empirically based maintenance policy applied to the Athens water supply system.
