Maintenance Engineering is different and distinct from project, process, and reliability engineering. Project Engineering supports the longer-range capital program of new installations and alterations. Process Engineering typically reports to and focuses largely on problems of production. Reliability engineering works on medium and long-term asset management by working with capital projects, process engineering, and maintenance. Maintenance engineering focuses on the preservation of day-to-day asset reliability.
