Maintainability

The maintainability is, in the data-processing field, the capacity to be able to maintain in a coherent way and with lower costs certain components or applications.

This vocabulary is also used in industry in order to express the capacity of a system to being simply and quickly repaired; and thus to decrease times of interventions. The maintainability of a system is often characterized at the time of its design. Maintainability is calculated according to average times of intervention, and can thus make it possible to create a curve of pareto.

The solutions allowing a better maintainability are varied:

  • Design by subsets easy to dismount and interchange (a stock of these subsets will be then to envisage)
  • Non-utilization of commercial components with difficult provisioning (only one supplier).
  • Excellent communication logistic operator <=> technician maintenance.
