Maintenance Planning, Scheduling & Coordination
by Don Nyman & Joel Levitt, 228 pp., 2001, ISBN: 0831131438
     Well-planned, properly scheduled, and effectively communicated jobs accomplish more work, more efficiently, and at a lower cost.  Maintenance Planning, Scheduling and Coordination focuses on and deals specifically with the preparatory tasks that lead to effective utilization and application of maintenance resources.

     It is a vital training document for planners, an educational document for those to whom planners are responsible, and a valuable guide for those who interface with the planning and scheduling function and are dependent upon the many contributions of planning and scheduling for operational excellence.

     Sure to aid organizations that pursue "Maintenance Excellence," this book thoroughly covers the basics commonly contained within world-class maintenance programs: planning, parts acquisition, work measurement, coordination, and scheduling.

    It also addresses maintenance management, performance, and control; and it clarifies the scope, responsibilities, and contributions of the Planner/Scheduler function and the support of other functions to Job Preparation, Execution, a Completion.  All in all, this invaluable guide and reference tells the whole story of maintenance planning from beginning to end.
