A case study on preventive maintenance (PM) of a multi-equipment system is presented in this paper. Each equipment of the system consists of many components/subsystems connected in series. Because of the series structure, opportunistic maintenance (OM) policies are more effective for the components of the equipment. A new OM policy based on the classification of opportunities has been proposed. Various OM policies have been evaluated using simulation modeling, and the new policy has been found to be more effective than the existing OM policies. The impact of this policy on the overall system has also been simulated.
