ملخص المقالة :
The previous studies about the maintenance systems were dealt with defining the evaluation criteria,grouping them, and using different techniques for evaluating. The main problem is that maintenancesubsystems and the relationship between and within them in order to a reliable evaluation havenever been identified before.The contribution of this study is realizing the four maintenance subsystems consisting service andmaintenance, inspection, chronic failure, and severe failure and investigating the communicationbetween them that has never been done in previous studies. On the other hand, in each subsystemthe relationship between causal conditions, phenomenon, mediator condition, strategies andconsequences that had been neglected in previous studies are discussed for the very first time.Causal conditions, that cause each of four subsystems, are identified. Then phenomenon andmediator conditions are presented and the strategy that should be made based on the characteristicof phenomenon and mediator condition is determined as well. Since making a strategy can lead to aconsequence, the consequences according to different strategies are identified that has never beendone in previous studies. At last, the relations between these parts are presented in narratives.
