概要	Maintenance Optimization is a quantitative framework for determining the timing, type, and frequency of maintenance actions—preventive, predictive, or corrective—that minimize total cost or expected downtime over a system's operational life. Systematic formulations were consolidated by Hongzhou Wang (2002), whose survey unified age-replacement, block-replacement, and imperfect-repair policies under a common cost-rate structure applicable to deteriorating systems across engineering and operations management.	Six Sigma DMAIC is a data-driven, five-phase process improvement methodology — Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control — used to reduce defects and process variation to fewer than 3.4 defects per million opportunities. Originating at Motorola in the 1980s and systematized by practitioners including Pyzdek and Keller, it is widely adopted in manufacturing, healthcare, finance, and service industries seeking sustained quality gains.	Value Stream Mapping (VSM) is a lean management technique used to visualize, analyze, and improve the flow of materials and information required to bring a product or service from raw input to customer delivery. Introduced by Mike Rother and John Shook in their 1999 workbook Learning to See, VSM draws on the Toyota Production System tradition to expose waste, delays, and non-value-adding activities across the entire production value stream.
