Item SWOT analysis – on maintenance frameworks for SMEs(CRC Press, 2022) Mishra, Rajesh PA framework is a collection of various ideas, concepts, circumstances and beliefs that help to establish how anything will be detected, realized and constructed. It is a collection of tasks and explains how they are interconnected inside a structure. Generally, a framework is an actual or theoretical structure planned to assist as facilitation or direct the development of anything that extends the construction into anything beneficial. It can also be considered as a basic structure of hypothetical rules or principles of science. Framework development is based upon existing frameworks of SMEs (Small- and Medium-sized Enterprises) and the variable needs of the customers in the market. Development involved in the classification of various processes resulted in the conceptual framework. In existing and available frameworks, some are trustworthy and reliable, while a lot of them are weak and not useful. This chapter considered the importance of a maintenance framework in the environment of SMEs. The main aim of SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) analysis is to utilize firmly established methodologies – strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats – with the intention to identify the key elements for the maintenance framework.Item Strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats analysis of lean implementation frameworks(Inder Science, 2014-04) Mishra, Rajesh PThe aim of this paper is to use the SWOT analysis that can be used as a decision-making aid to choose an appropriate framework according to the industry needs. Various databases were searched for research on lean implementation and the obstacles to successful lean implementation. Following this, analysis was carried out to identify the major success factors and an ideal lean implementation framework. Based on SWOT analysis it has found that every framework has its own sets of strengths and weaknesses. Decision makers can know the suitability of different framework. But most important is what model which suit to most of the situations. This paper developed a lean implementation model which is more generic, has overcome the most of the issues related to implementation compared to other frameworks. The lean implementation frameworks identified are not industry centric but more generic in nature.Item A SWOT analysis of total productive maintenance frameworks(Inder Science, 2008-01) Mishra, Rajesh PIn the literature of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), a large number of frameworks have been proposed by different authors and consultants. If an organisation or a maintenance manager has to make a strategic decision of implementing TPM, it may not be easy for them to identify a suitable framework from a plethora of frameworks that are available in literature. Hence, in this paper, an attempt has been made to perform a comparative study of these frameworks using a Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) analysis. In addition to this, the SWOT analysis helped us consolidate a list of critical success factors for TPM apart from identifying the potential weaknesses and threats. Further, it can be concluded that implementation of TPM is by no means an easy task, as it is heavily burdened by weaknesses and threats. However, if an organisation implementing TPM gives due considerations to these weaknesses and threats, it can utilise the significant strengths and opportunities offered by TPM to achieve a competitive advantage.Item A SWOT analysis of reliability centered maintenance framework(Emerald, 2016-05) Mishra, Rajesh PThe purpose of this paper is to use well-established methodology strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) analysis – in order to identify the important factors for reliability centered maintenance (RCM) implementation.
