Through the previous discussion of the questionnaire, it has been found that 86 % of the respondent companies have maintenance departments. Meanwhile, plastic, chemical and construction industries are the sectors that have the lowest percentages of companies that have maintenance departments. Companies that activate the maintenance department role by allocating a budget for it constituted 61.6% of those who said they have departments. The most interested sectors in allocating a budget are food, leather and construction industries. Large companies showed more concern than small ones regarding the size of maintenance budget relative to the total operating cost.
