The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate various maintenance performance indicators (MPIs) within the perspective of
maintenance metrics conducted by the managerial personnel for achieving the specified production target. In this paper, a conceptual
framework has been developed, that provides guideline for choosing maintenance performance metrics for a typical manufacturing
industry. It seeks to align maintenance objective with the performance indicators and provides a link between the two. Operations and
maintenance of manufacturing system are of great economic importance. The review of literature on maintenance performance
indicators and their measurement has been summarized under the five categories of metrics; functional metrics, equipment
performance metrics, maintenance process metrics, periodicity metrics and OEE metrics. The review indicates that quantitative
metrics for measuring maintenance performance are lacking. To address this gap, maintenance performance metrics has been
proposed.
