- Summary
- "Design for Maintainability" (DfMn) will provide design engineers, logistics engineers, and engineering managers with a range of tools and techniques for incorporating maintainability into the design process for complex systems. Our book will explain how to design for optimum maintenance capabilities and minimize the time to repair equipment. The book will cover maintainability design practices, which will result in improved system readiness, shorter downtimes, and substantial cost savings over the entire system life cycle, thereby, decreasing the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). Readers who apply DfMn principles and practices can expect to have a dramatic improvement in their ability to compete in global markets and gain widespread customer satisfaction. Readers will find a wealth of design practices not covered in typical engineering books, allowing them to think outside the box when developing maintainability design requirements"--
