This is
the Book and CD combination version of this book.
Performance measurement in maintenance is a key ingredient when an
organization is seeking excellence in their maintenance practices.
Unquestionably a maintenance scorecard (MSC) consistent with
corporate goals will be invaluable. In this context I was pleased
to see addresses in the very first Chapter not only comments on key
ingredients of a MSC but also implementation issues associated with
the use of a MSC. There is so little written on the balanced
scorecard (BSC) concept being applied to the maintenance function,
and as the first book focusing on the BSC in the context of
maintenance , termed by Mather the MSC, it will be a welcome
addition to the arsenal of literature available to ensure superior
maintenance performance in an organizations.

'The
Maintenance Scorecard is an important work in the field of
maintenance management. It is important because it weaves together
several disparate threads into an insightful and useful whole.
Implementation of the ideas presented in The Maintenance Scorecard
could focus attention of both top management and maintenance
leadership to meaningful improvements.'
Joel
Levitt, President Springfield Resources
'It is so
refreshing to hear someone whom truly knows what he is talking
about rather than the theory merchants that tend to saturate our
discipline.'
