Abstract
A systematic method is proposed to compare the investment in a standby for a crucial equipment in a production system and the anticipated benefits therefrom. The anticipated benefits take into account the cost of repairs, switching, operation, maintenance, and lost production. A method is proposed to identify the most economic mode of operation of the standby system.
