description Cost reduction in production systems is one of the main concerns of most manufacturing industries. Achieving this goal requires the effective use of resources. Nowadays, due to the competitiveness of production and the need to reduce costs and deliver goods on time, equipment availability and prevention of unexpected stops are particularly important in industrial units. In recent years, equipment, machinery, and human resources have been the foundations of any organization. On the other hand, to increase the productivity and efficiency of providing services and achieve global standards, special attention should be paid to increase the efficiency of machinery and reducing downtime costs. This research conducted a mathematical formulation to find the best possible solution for the economic production quantity and inventory ordering by considering preventive maintenance. In this model, the success of organizations in providing services and increasing the quality depends on various reasons, such as maintenance and repair systems. In the proposed model, the defective items are considered, and the goal is to achieve an optimal amount of production in such a way that the costs of the entire system, including production cost, setup, maintenance, inspection, and rework costs, are minimized during a period per unit of time. The numerical results show that increasing the preventive maintenance periods leads to an upward trend in the total cost of the supply chain. Moreover, the sensitivity analysis shows that the longer the preventive maintenance on the machine, the higher reliability of the system as well as total costs will be achieved.
