Industrial and Production Engineering Final Year Topic: Investigation of Maintenance Crew Scheduling

This Industrial and Production Engineering final year project investigates allocating fictional maintenance tasks across limited skills and time windows, connecting a bounded production decision to explicit data, constraints and reproducible comparison criteria.

Why choose this project topic?

The topic gives allocating fictional maintenance tasks across limited skills and time windows a practical industrial-engineering scope without assuming access to an entire factory. Comparing overdue tasks, resource conflicts and schedule stability supports process diagrams, simulations or evidence reviews and helps explain why an apparent improvement may depend on its assumptions.

How do the selected production-system policies or assumptions affect overdue tasks, resource conflicts and schedule stability when allocating fictional maintenance tasks across limited skills and time windows?

Choose a fictional production case, permitted dataset or harmless approved teaching task, then agree the workload and comparison criteria for allocating fictional maintenance tasks across limited skills and time windows.

Proposed project objectives

  1. 01Define the production process, evidence and constraints required for allocating fictional maintenance tasks across limited skills and time windows.
  2. 02Use synthetic jobs and skill requirements, compare scheduling rules and test urgent tasks and absent resources.
  3. 03Compare overdue tasks, resource conflicts and schedule stability and report uncertainty, trade-offs and limits of application.

A suggested research approach

Use synthetic jobs and skill requirements, compare scheduling rules and test urgent tasks and absent resources. Identify synthetic inputs and obtain permission for any real observations or participant tasks. Keep a documented baseline, inspect sensitivity to uncertain assumptions, and compare overdue tasks, resource conflicts and schedule stability without treating a modelled improvement as a verified factory outcome.

What you will need

  • Synthetic maintenance jobs
  • Fictional skill matrix
  • Scheduling simulator

Keep your project scope clear

The model cannot defer legally required or safety-critical maintenance.
