Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to provide a framework that can identify and evaluate the effectiveness of a lean maintenance strategy. The framework is developed using lean approach and Project Management methods on existing maintenance strategy. The relation between applying the lean approach and maintenance performance was studied and analyzed. A team from diverse backgrounds was assembled to study and analyze different practices in use in various sections within the division. The scope of the paper will focus on applying a new concept to one type of maintenance that is limited to non - outage preventive maintenance activities. Non - outage activities denotes that the feeder or equipment does not require isolation/shutdown. It was found that the framework is applicable and useful for the strategic management of the maintenance function. It is observed that the applied methods have optimized the maintenance strategies in several areas, that is, optimizing the maintenance quality, optimizing the cost of maintenance, optimizing the resources required for the maintenance and reduction of harmful environmental effects.
