Authors: Adnan Bakri; Mohd Yazid Mohd Taib; (UniKL MITEC)
Abstract: This paper present on the preliminary findings of pilot project aimed at exploring the issue related to managing the maintenance activity in Malaysian Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). SMEs have been recognized as indispensable components of domestic industry development. However, the literature portrays that many of Malaysian SMEs particularly the companies involved in manufacturing, fabrication and machining services are struggling to manage the maintenance of their manufacturing equipment. Reliable manufacturing equipment has been considered as significant contributor to organizational profitability. Nowadays, with the growing dependence on the automation and mechanization, managing the maintenance activity of those manufacturing equipment is becoming more complex and critical. Because of such characteristic, SMEs players are under enormous pressure to minimize downtime for their survival. Thus, this study seeks to explore the related issues towards further improvements. Qualitative research methodology was adopted in the study. Data were collected at eight (8) SMEs located in three (3) different areas, namely southern, central and eastern region of peninsular Malaysia. Information was gathered from semi-structured interviews with SMEs management and observations focuses on different areas of maintenance management at the respective SMEs. The main concern is to identify the critical success factors (CSFs) in managing the maintenance activity at selected SMEs. This study discovered that: understanding the maintenance management philosophy; management commitment and leadership; appropriate number of maintenance staff; maintenance planning; maintenance strategy; integration of tools, techniques and technology; maintenance training; record of maintenance data, and; monitoring and assessment are the most significant CSFs towards effective maintenance management practice for SMEs. The discovered CSFs are vital for all stakeholders that directly or indirectly involve in managing the maintenance activity in SMEs.

A review on critical success factors for total productive maintenance and development of research framework
Title: A review on critical success factors for total productive maintenance and development of research framework
Authors: Adnan Bakri; Ahmad Nur Aizat b Ahmad; Muhamad Arif Mahzan; (UniKL MITEC)
Abstract: Total productive maintenance (TPM) is holistic maintenance management approach aimed at improving the overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) of the machine or equipment. It integrates the role of maintenance and production department of a company to share responsibility in taking care the production equipment. Its strong emphasis is on inculcating the sense of sharing responsibility and empowering operators to maintain their production equipment. In the right environment, TPM implementation would make significant contribution to company’s profitability particularly in increasing the production efficiency, improving the product quality, lowering operating cost, timely delivery to customers, ensuring the safety of the workplace and enhancing the morale of employees. However, the literature portrays that many of companies are struggling and found themselves either failed right at the start-up or during the process of TPM implementation. In view of the significant impact from TPM methodology, it is clear that there is a need to formulate a set of comprehensive guidance towards the success of its implementation. Therefore, this paper seeks to discuss the critical success factors (CSFs) of TPM and to develop research framework for systematic TPM implementation. The study adopts comprehensive literature reviews from numerous published sources such as journals, books, websites, magazines and unpublished thesis. It focuses on the understanding of the concept of TPM and maintenance management, the concept of CSFs approach, the growing importance of TPM and its significance role in supporting domestic industry development. This paper contends that the company’ business performance will surely improve if the concepts outlined in CSFs of TPM be adopted and adapted. From this brief discussion, the author invites for other ideas as part of continual improvement on the proposed research framework to assess TPM implementation in Malaysian companies.

Title: Mixed Convection Boundary Layer Flow of Viscoelastic Nanofluid Past a Horizontal Circular Cylinder with Convective Boundary Condition
Authors: Rahimah Mahat; Sharidan Shafie; Abdul Rahman Mohd Kasim; Noraihan Afiqah Rawi; (UniKL MITEC)
Abstract: The steady mixed convection boundary layer flow of viscoelastic nanofluid past a horizontal circular cylinder taking into account the thermal convective boundary condition is investigated numerically. The nanofluid model use involve the Tiwari and Das model. The resulting system of nonlinear partial differential equations is solved numerically using an efficient implicit finite-difference scheme known as the Keller-box method. Effect of the various parameters, namely, uthe mixed convection parameter, the nanoparticles volume fraction, viscoelastic parameter and the conjugate parameter on the dimensionless velocity, temperature, skin friction, as well as wall temperature have been presented graphically and discussed. It is found that both skin friction and wall temperature decreases for the increase in viscoelastic parameter. On the other hand, increasing conjugate parameter leads to the increase of the temperature and velocity profiles. For fixed nanoparticles volume fraction, as the value of mixed convection parameter increases, the magnitude of both the skin friction coefficient and wall temperature also increases.
