Abstract

Currently, the optimization process in the maintenance management has been treated as a critical issue by the industry. The proposed work focuses on maintenance model diagnosis, the process aims to detect positive practices and highly possible future improvements in the models. In order to carry out the diagnostic, a systematic process is performed over the maintenance model employed through the usage of AMORMS (Asset Management, Operational Reliability & Maintenance Survey). The study case presented in this work was carried out over a pulp mill from Chile, which has an annual production over 1 million tons. Regarding the overall analysis output, several issues were illustrated in order to reach a world level performance. Thus, the employment of such instruments aims to detect key issues in urgent need to be fixed, helping in successfully designing a fitted model to be competitive and reach higher productivity.
