MAINTENANCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS IN AGRICULTURAL COMPANIES IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC

The purpose of this paper is to describe different maintenance management systems being used by Czech companies with a view to the agro-industrial complex in recent years. The paper focuses on maintenance management systems supported by information system (IS) and their implementation in companies. The use of IS helps to create a variety of scenarios with an emphasis on the need for analytical instruments processing data integration in order to improve the efficiency of the maintenance system and identify its weaknesses. While the maintenance management information system (MMIS) is widespread within the agro-industrial scope in the manufacturing industry, in primary agricultural production and agricultural machinery servicing, it has yet to be utilized. The paper also describes some possible applications of MMIS in the sphere of the agro-industrial complex, the differences between their applications and the potential use of MMIS in the case of fully or partially outsourced agricultural equipment maintenance.
