Abstract
A probabilistic model represents a robust maintenance circumstance: a scheduled activity and a randomly-occurring activity with cost savings if they are combined. The activities are combined if the elapsed time for either activity exceeds a control limit, called a screen. The long-run rates of single and joint replacements are evaluated when the randomly-occurring activity is uniformly distributed.
