It assists in improving the existing preventive maintenance approach by offering a dynamic maintenance plan based on risk or Risk-based Maintenance Scheduling. To date, there is no clear definition of Naval Vessels Risk-based Maintenance as well as its framework, and it has not been applied extensively in naval vessel maintenance application which is peculiar compared to its application in plant maintenance. This paper reviews Risk-based Maintenance application in industries in an approach to develop prescriptive analytics for a comprehensive and dynamic naval vessels Risk-based Maintenance decision-making framework. It aims to establish an optimal maintenance scheduling to improve naval vessels availability and reduce maintenance costs while meeting stakeholders� expectations. Objectives and considerations are also defined for peculiarities application of naval vessels. The framework is then evaluated to improve the effectiveness of the current Preventive Maintenance practice and the inconsistency of the existing maintenance decision-making model using the expert judgement in Reliability Centered Maintenance. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd %Z cited By 2
