Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Over the years, there has been an advancement in how manufacturing companies conduct maintenance. They have begun transitioning from Preventive Maintenance (PM) to Predictive Maintenance (PdM). With the introduction of technologies such as Digital Twin (DT), Internet of Things (IoT), and Intelligent Manufacturing (IM), the world is rapidly changing, thus allowing companies to optimise existing processes, products and reduce costs. The existing literature offers limited investigations and best practices in the end-to-end optimisation for maintenance transformation. The current paper intends to explore (a) the transition from PM to PdM and (b) the utilisation of DTs and IM for maintenance optimisation. The paper articulates the scope and features of end-to-end maintenance optimisation for asset uptime and cost benefits. The findings can help industries understand the introductions and advancements of technologies for predictive maintenance and end-to-end optimisation with the benefit of investigating and illustrating how companies can move forward.
