interpretive modeling

The aim of this study is to design a Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) management model using a combined approach of factor analysis and Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) in the power distribution companies of northwest Iran. This research is conducted within the power distribution companies of the northwest region, selected as the pilot area. Identifying the optimal maintenance strategy and selecting the most effective TPM management model are of significant importance. The results of this research will be provided to Tavanir and the Ministry of Energy for potential implementation in other affiliated companies. From a spatial perspective, the quantitative data pertains to operational data from the power distribution companies in the northwest region. The statistical population includes both experts and the self-assessment segment of all specialists and maintenance, repair, and warehouse personnel within these companies. Temporally, the data includes operational records from the inventory, accounting, and process systems of the power distribution companies for the years 2017 to 2022. The findings of this study indicate that the initiation of the TPM process should begin with enhanced management and leadership in maintenance and repair, followed by attention to reliability improvement, feedback and system outcomes, human resources and employee skills, and quality preservation in the process of preventive maintenance. Additionally, work processes, organizational structuring, task force formation, planned preventive maintenance, safety and health preservation, equipment and warehouse management, resource and contract management, adoption of preventive maintenance technologies, expansion of automation systems, self-controlled maintenance and repair, and ultimately, understanding the appropriate framework for TPM in power distribution companies—based on the insights of experts and system specialists—should be considered.

Today, the issue of training in organizations is of particular importance. Faraja organization is no exception to this rule and seeks to develop the required training. The purpose of the current research is the formation process of the development of physical education in Faraja with the interpretive structural modeling approach of ISM.

The research method is qualitative based on soft analysis technique and ISM interpretive structural modeling approach. The population and the statistical sample of the research include 15 people from Naja sports experts and university faculty members who were selected by purposive sampling. The data collection tool is a 2x2 matrix. First, the components were identified based on interviews with 15 experts. Then, their opinions were used to build and validate the model through a paired comparison questionnaire. In this research, the ISM method was used to analyze the data.

The budget and financial factor was placed in the independent cluster, which means that these variables have high influence and low importance.. These variables have a high degree of penetration and a high degree of dependence. In this regard, it can be said that the key or influential variables in the development of physical education are the four budget and financial indicators, facilities and equipment, human factors and management factors.

. Identifying these variables as key variables in the development process of Faraja physical education helps the institutions and the trustees to be prioritized for development and improvement.
