Abstract:
With increased global competition for manufacturing, many companies are seeking , ways to gain competitive advantages with respect to cost, service, quality, and on-time deliveries, forcing companies to focus on the maintenance area by creating new techniques and practices to have a good level of competitiveness at the enterprise level. Maintenance has evolved greatly over time and every day is breaking the barriers of the past and is improving so some of the companies by its updates in the area have managed to develop this maintenance and large companies and some adopted the slogan "maintenance is investment not cost "which is a breakthrough in their thinking to develop their projects. So this document, presents an overview of the latest trends in maintenance to help us get a better idea of this topic

Introduction:
The investment currently made in the maintenance of the companies has increased in a manner causing considerable in many cases the companies were not prepared for such cases end up in bankruptcy. This kind of problems every day adhere they are forming new companies begin to develop, and in the other cases companies outside the country are local, such enterprises if Chinese or Japanese in Latin American Countries. The purpose which you have is to implement the knowledge and techniques to reduce maintenance costs, without neglecting. The problems that arise, keeping the latest trends are focusing on doing an analysis of the most common faults in the

RESULTS:
Maintenance management has evolved greatly overtime. The first maintenance performed by companies was the call corrective maintenance, also called maintenance emergency. This kind of maintenance is to solve equipment problems when they fail, repairing or replacing parts or equipment damaged. These techniques became obsolete, since while the maintenance program is centered on the fault when it occurs, will involve high costs by lowering the declines in productivity and quality. This situation a rises preventive maintenance. This is regularly reviewed equipment and replace certain components based on statistical estimates, often provided by the manufacturer. With this maintenance reduces the cost of unplanned maintenance planned and glitches, so that increases the reliability of the equipment but their main drawback is that presents very high costs. In the decade of the nineties A new trend in the industry, the so-called maintenance predictive or conditionbased maintenance of equipment. Su goal is to provide sufficient accurate and timely information for decision making. Increases in the use of computer-based planning systems have resulted in the development of computerized preventive maintenance systems that have proven to be successful in planning for maintenance labor and materials. Integrating planning methods with corrective maintenance tasks will help reduce breakdowns, make more efficient use of maintenance, and provide information for inventory control of maintenance, repair, and operating materials.

 One way to achieve the much desired objective of improving the availability, reliability, and cost is to encourage the outsourcing done by our maintenance activity. This document structured so that first we will deal with modern maintenance techniques, not intermingled with the pure. It is absolutely necessary for the reader, as maintenance manager think your company is a very particular case and will receive no magic formula but this should do their part to implement their own techniques.

Reliability Centered Maintenance

One of the most current techniques to implement organizational maintenance and significantly improve their results is the reliability-centered maintenance. This technique is based on the search for better results based on the following premises:

Reliability centered Maintenance

A methodology to analyze each type of failure or breakdown studying the mode and manner in which such failures occur how these are translated into costs and effects
