Outsourcing, Maintenance Plan, Reliability-Centered MaintenanceAbstract
Outsourcing is the strategy of contracting another entity to provide a specific service. In the case of the salmon farming company, all equipment maintenance activities were outsourced until September 2022. These outsourcing relationships led to failure because of the following reasons: lack of knowledge, incorrect actions, high response times, high costs, and deficient start-up equipment. The salmon farming company decided to partner with Universidad Austral de Chile to close the gaps in maintenance management. The university oversaw the company's workforce training and led a research project to develop a Reliability-Centered Maintenance plan. The farming company is now responsible for the maintenance plan and the results are promising, reducing unplanned downtime and boosting efficiency.
