. Predictive Maintenance ;-- in this strategies we find out by the condition of equipment when is needed for maintenance. in this methode we detect the problem which may cause failure. for exmaple sensore, oil anaylsis

Project Maintenance;-- in this strategies we tracked all activities related to maintenance plan. it works under project manager who take cares of all activites. in this strategies maintenace activities are provides various firms under project and maintenance done by these firms not industry personnel. for example CNC machine callibration

Proactive Maintenance--in this strategies we find out the real cause of equipment avoid failure that may cause due this equipment.in this we focused on equipment failure that can be elimnated.the main purpose of proactive maintenance are reduce downtime, failure and risk. for example oil changes in car.
