Abstract

The study appraised the facilities and the maintenance management strategies employed in selected industrial estates in Lagos State by examining facilities maintenance strategies, with a view to establishing the optimal strategies. Data were sourced using structured questionnaire administered on the staff of maintenance department of the industrial firms located in the estates. Data obtained were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Using the relative importance index (RII), the most widely used maintenance strategy was reactive maintenance strategy with RII value of 0.15. The most influencing factor for the choice of maintenance strategy was the reporting delay time with RII value of 0.41. The observed facility down time was over two weeks and the factors mostly responsible for delay in responding to maintenance request were lack of funds and inadequacy of maintenance staff.
