Opportunistic Maintenance Policy for a System with Hidden Failures : A Multicriteria Approach Applied to an Emergency Diesel Generator

الملخص EN

This paper aims to develop a maintenance policy to support the maintenance decisions of an emergency system that supplies electricity when failure of the primary system occurs in a health facility.

An Opportunistic maintenance policy was developed, in which failures are hidden and inspections are performed to detect the state of the system and subsystems.

Failure in the system can have negative consequences for the health unit.

A multicriteria model that considers cost and availability criteria and preference of the maintenance manager of the health unit was developed.
