Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to develop a framework for the implementation of World-class Maintenance Systems (WMS) with the help of Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) methodology. In our earlier work, the framework for WMS was proposed, which explained what constitutes WMS. As a follow up paper, an attempt has been made to present a detailed description about how an organization can implement WMS. To accomplish the same, a standard template is provided for describing the implementation of each and every element and their contextual relationships are also described by ISM methodology which shows driving power and dependence of each element. It is believed that such a normative presentation of the framework would benefit the managers in providing proper guidance and direction during implementation of WMS.
