Abstract
The maintenance of hospital building’s projects and management practices Is one of comprehensive subjects which must be efforts to give attention and considerations required, which requires a permanent search for better methods that help in evaluation the management of maintenance of these project. The style of preferential rules of similarity with the ideal solution is one of those methods. This research focuses on the provision of Technique for Order Performance by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) as technique helps to make the best decisions when setting up the project, which encountered problems are complex and multi-criteria (MCDM). And apply this technique on a variety of areas as it allows the comprehensive study and non-biased criteria and alternatives. This research aims to highlight the importance of maintenance, and how it can be employed technical grounds (TOPSIS) to evaluate the management of maintenance hospitals projects that following to Diyala city, through the identification of the criteria used to select the best project in terms of maintenance management, as well as determining the list of hospitals projects in order to choose the project optimization of this area And then access to the ideal Maintenance Management for hospitals in the province. For the purpose of achieve the objective of research, has been collecting its own data from the literature that dealt with substantive rules of Technique for Order Performance by Similarity to Ideal Solution and maintenance management, and finally personal interviews of qualified designers , implementers and operators of these hospitals. Showed the results of data analysis for the sample that the criteria for planning, implementation, organization, control is the most important criteria for bilateral comparisons between hospitals, and that the criteria planning and execution is more important than the rest of the criteria in hospitals. Finally, and by calculating the relative closeness index and classification of the order, we find that hospitals Baquba General Hospital has received the largest share of importance in comparison with other hospitals and by the administration needs to pay greater attention to maintenance to bring it to the ideal situation such as encoding operations to include the buildings and maintenance work together. In the end, was a set of conclusions and recommendations of the various aspects of the topic from, accelerate the application of techniques of multi-criteria decision-making in the evaluation of projects in addition to expediting the application of the systems proposed by researchers for the Maintenance management to help the engineers on the best implementation of this administration.
