Standards as reference to build a PHM-based solution

Abstract

PHM (Prognostics and Health Management) is key factor for reaching more proactive maintenance models. Its applicability depends, among others, on the development of general methodological approaches to guide the design process of new maintenance strategies where the potential of PHM can be exploited. Despite there are few specific standards that treat PHM is possible to use current standards of maintenance and diagnostic as the bases of the development of this general methodologies. This paper offers a revision of some of the available standards that can serve as guidelines to develop such solutions including a proposal of methodology to design and implement PHM solutions that combines current standards.
