Computerised Maintenance Management, Passengers Service, Availability Performance

This study intended to develop Automobiles' Computerised Maintenance Management System (CMMS) to Improve UDART Buses' Availability Performance, Case of UDART Headquarters-Dar es Salaam. The specific study objectives were to assess factors affecting the availability performance of public service vehicles owned by UDART, to develop a CMMS model for improving the availability performance of public service vehicles owned by UDART, and to develop a CMMS for improving the availability performance of passengers' service vehicles owned by UDART. The theories adopted are Resource Based Theory, Institutional Theory and Human Capital Theory. The study used a cross-sectional survey design. The data collection process used structured questionnaires. The data collection process involved 71 respondents using simple random and purposive sampling methods. Data processing used the Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 26 program to estimate numerical values and descriptive statistics to indicate study results. Inferential and descriptive statistics tested relationships of study variables, comprising OLS multiple regression analysis, percentages, frequencies and correlations. Again, the study has brought an efficient maintenance management model to guide UDART and other passengers' transporters in running their firms productively. Finally, the resulting CMMS have revealed the significance of improving the availability performance of UDART's buses to 90.32%. Nevertheless, UDART should invest well in maintenance tools and equipment as they significantly affect the availability performance of the buses.
