English abstract:
Efficient maintenance processes are necessary in lean manufacturing systems to ensure high productivity in
order to stay competitive. In this paper the development of a two-step-approach for maintenance process
optimization is presented. The first step is the development of a standard for the sequence of process steps
for various maintenance tasks. With this logical design, key figures can be generated and areas of
improvement become visible. Based on that standard and on the method Value Stream Mapping, a new
approach to analyze and optimize maintenance processes is presented. Shorter lead times and more
efficient maintenance processes are the result.
