The traditional view of maintenance is machine-based, where acute maintenance tasks are highly valued. Preventive maintenance is viewed as secondary and less desirable to work with. The more modern view is to regard maintenance as a process. The machine-driven tasks are still necessary but are viewed as a part of the big picture.The purpose of this study is to examine how to high light general difficulties concerning maintenance management to aid organizations to reflecting upon their own situation. The study is based upon a pilot study initiated by ProcessIT concerning relevant key figures in maintenance. Together with the empirical data from interviews investigating the interest for SSG Standard and the present maintenance management work, we analyse the findings in relations to research regarding maintenance in information technology (IT). Through this approach we show the general differences, independent of industries.
