Assessing the Efficiency and Effectiveness of Maintenance Management Practices in Selected Private Institutions
Abstract
The Maintenance management sector in public section in Nigeria has suffered from lack of funds and negligence for a period of time. For a while, neglect and a lack of funding have plagued Nigeria's public maintenance management sector. The threat also affected the education sector, as significant sums of money are frequently spent on building facilities while upkeep is sometimes disregarded. Therefore, using private institutions in Nigeria as a case study, this study assessed the efficiency and effectiveness of maintenance management practises. The existing private institution was the only one included in the sampling survey. One hundred (100) questionnaires were sent in order to evaluate the physical and functional state of private institutions buildings in Ogun State as determined by each department's maintenance division to evaluate the efficiency of the maintenance strategies employed in preserving their structures, identify the most common technique for carrying out maintenance procedures and analyse its effectiveness. According to the data used, it was found that improper maintenance workload phasing can result in unprofitable maintenance management practises. Other significant factors that contribute to the inefficiency and ineffectiveness of the maintenance management processes include poor contract management, a lack of material availability, and the occurrence of inadequate projection and estimate.
