Abstract --In this study the techniques of value engineering have been studied for finding the suitable maintenance practice. Value engineering is a one
of the most powerful decision making techniques which depends upon factor. The VE process identifies; opportunities to remove unnecessary costs
while assuring that quality, reliability, performance, and other critical factors will meet or exceed the customer’s expectations. The improvements are the
result of recommendations made by multidisciplinary teams representing all parties involved. VE is a rigorous, systematic effort to improve the value and
optimize the life cycle cost of a facility. Using factor comparison study has been made between different maintenance practice .and finally select best
maintenance practice based of value engineering.

Selection phase: The following parameters have been selected Break down maintenance 4
for value analysis.
Cost Maintenance prevention 5
Safety: The following points are given to safety; here maximum Severity factor: It represents the effect level of failure on the
point got more safe maintenance practice. equipment on the basis of downtime, scrap rate and safety .It
should be less for best maintenance practice, so best maintenance
Table 2: Value point for safety practice got maximum point.
