The modernization of equipment management aims to systematically and comprehensively apply advanced management practices that are suitable for China’s national conditions and meet the objective requirements of modern equipment, as well as the main achievements of modern natural sciences (primarily technical sciences) and social sciences, to equipment management. This is done in order to raise China’s level of equipment management to that of modern equipment or at least to a level close to the world’s advanced standards, thereby fully realizing the technical, economic, and social benefits of modern equipment. The modernization of equipment management is a comprehensive system that encompasses the modernization of management theory (or concepts), management organizations, management methods, management tools, and management personnel. Modernization of management philosophy: To achieve modern management, it is necessary to use modern scientific management theories and philosophies to guide management practices. Modern management theories related to equipment management include: systems theory, cybernetics, information theory, engineering economics, management engineering, reliability engineering, tribology, etc ； Modern management concepts include the concept of comprehensive equipment management, strategic thinking, market orientation, efficiency focus, competitive awareness, as well as concepts related to safety and environmental protection. Modernization of management organizations: It requires continuous adaptation to economic system reforms and the demands of modern large-scale production, as well as the establishment of a rational and efficient equipment management system and organizational structure.
