Abstract: Methods of providing maintenance management of a machine are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method involves identifying a machine component failure that, if not repaired, will result in a functional failure of the machine. A criticality factor is assigned to the machine component failure based on at least a probability of occurrence of the functional failure and a consequence of the functional failure to a machine user. A maintenance task is generated to repair the machine component failure, and a triggering condition that activates the maintenance task is defined. The method further involves conducting a machine repair in response to a detection of the triggering condition, and maintaining a record that includes information relating to the conducted machine repair. The method of providing maintenance management is also modified based on at least the record.
