Intervals of preventive maintenance has been extensively researched and are recommended by ABC Singapore to their clients. When preventive maintenance contracts are signed, ABC Singapore has legal obligations to fulfill these maintenance jobs.

An alternative approach to job scheduling is proposed in this report and tested by numerical means in order to validate its suitability and effectiveness.
