Integrating production planning and preventive maintenance (PM) scheduling is one of the most studied problems related to operations management. In fact, both decisions are highly interrelated. An efficient integration leads to cost optimization and high delivery reliability. In this paper, we evaluate the impact of the stochastic dependence on the integrated preventive maintenance scheduling and production planning. For this purpose, Cox Proportional Hazards Model (CPHM), based on the exponential survival distribution and an integer programming model are used. The results show that increasing the degree of dependence affects both production and maintenance costs and the system’s available production capacity.
