Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Research In Engineering & Management. - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The manufacturing sector in Botswana has been rapidly growing in recent times. Maintenance management system plays a vital role in keeping equipment on condition and also major contributor for overall productivity. The current study seeks to improve maintenance management of a local textile case study company with its operations based in Gaborone Botswana. The study sought to assist the organization take advantage of low labor costs and good export policies to manufacture goods for both local and the international markets through effective maintenance management. In order to effectively compete, organizations need to produce quality products and services. In that regard, manufacturers need to reduce redundancy in business processes, redesign products using prime components and increase availability of products and services through provision of effective equipment maintenance.
