Abstract: aintenance strategies of naval ships and equipment onboard play an important role in determining their effective life span and overall life-cycle cost.While several approaches could be considered for maintenance optimization, this paper specifically focuses on reviewing the maintenance strategies and maintenance plans for maintenance workload optimization from a pragmatic perspective, during the in-service phase of naval ships.The review takes into consideration the various types of maintenance strategies and approaches that would enable the delivery of adequate maintenance required to ensure the reliability of the asset through its life cycle.The paper also touches upon the use of maintenance data analysis to review the recommended preventive maintenance schedule of the assets and the records of maintenance conducted, to identify options for reducing the maintenance workload.The opportunities to optimize the maintenance workload through efficient planning of all aspects of logistics support, including the relevance of improving the maturity of the Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) elements have also been discussed.Optimization of the maintenance workload shall not only help in avoiding maintenance delays but also reduce the maintenance costs and thereby the overall life-cycle cost of the asset.
