The chapter deals with the maintenance management. The review is based on maintenance and management trends in organisations in 2022 and on other findings. There are also historical parallels. Aspects such as maintenance planning and control and management including downtime, resources in terms as material (spare parts and added materials) and personnel are discussed. The issue is linked to other management systems such as quality control, occupational safety, and environment and information security. The methods of planning and control of equipment maintenance are presented. The application of the process approach and the concept of maintenance as a process that needs to be improved are described. The relationship to the Industry 4.0 is mentioned. Linking to risk management is included in this chapter. The chapter is based on a small survey probe in several organisations, and points out identified nonconformities of the maintenance and suggested actions. The goal is effective maintenance for needs of organisations in a current dynamic environment.
