Abstract: The aim of this study is to identify existing Predictive Maintenance methods in the context of service and the
role of Social Media data in this context. With the help of a Systematic Literature Review eleven researches
on notable Predictive Maintenance methods are identified and classified according to their focus, data sources,
key challenges, and assets. It can be revealed that existing methods use different Prediction technologies and
are mainly focused on industries with highly critical products. Existing methods provide value for B2B and
B2C as well as products and services. Moreover, the majority is using heterogenous data that was generated
automatically. However, it can be perceived that the consideration of Social Media data offers benefits for
Prediction methods through identifying and using personal user data, the current usage is rare and only in the
B2C sector recognizable. Thus, this research shows a gap in current literature as no universal Predictive
Maintenance solution is available, that enables organizations to enhance their services by using the full
potential of Social Media. Thus, future research needs to focus on the integration of Social Media data in
Prediction methods for the B2C sector. With this it is deeply interesting how Social Media data has to be
gathered and processed and if existing Predictive algorithms can be extended by Social Media data.
1 INTRODUCTION
Today successful companies do not only sell
excellent products, they rather offer an overall service
to customers. This service covers the customer
support along the whole product lifecycle and it
already starts with the idea of a product. Due to new
trends like Predictive Maintenance, Digital
Transformation, IoT and Big Data, companies do
have a lot of opportunities. Especially the application
of Predictive Maintenance technologies helps
companies to detect product failures and customer
dissatisfaction in an early stage. Thus, they are able
to act proactively, which leads to cost savings, the
reduction of product downtimes and an enhanced
customer service.
An essential part of Predictive Maintenance
methods and analysis consists of the collected and
analyzed amount of data. A lot of companies do not
only focus on the ongoing collection of new data, but
the use and analyses of already collected and stored
data is seen as equally important. The developments
in the information technology enable companies to
analyze data of different quantity, quality and format
and as a result economic value of this data increases
(Stockinger & Stadelmann, 2014, pp. 470–471).
Generally, the data basis can be separated in
homogenous (same data e.g. only log-data) and
heterogenous data (different data e.g. log-data and
sensor data).
With the emergence and increasing use of Social
Media networks customer or user share a lot of
personal information that had not been available
before. For companies the shared information about
products and services in Social Media represents a
new data source. The Social Media data consists of
highly specific information to single individuals as
well as to products and services.
This new data offers possibilities to enhance
Predictive methods through extending the data
sources and increasing the data quality with highly
customer specific data. Especially in the area of
customer services companies might have huge
potentials to improve profitability, customer
satisfaction, product satisfaction and lifetime of the

products and thus, enhancing their customer services
through applying Prediction methods and inlcuding
highly customer specific Social Media data (Olson &
Wu, 2017, pp. 2–6).
Thus, this paper aims in providing a State-of-the-
Art analysis of existing Predictive Maintenance
methods with focus on the industries they are used in
and whether Social Media data is already considered.
First the research method is outlined through
presenting the research questions as well as the
research strategy. Second, the collected data is
presented by providing an overview of the existing
Predictive methods and approaches and their main
features. In the subsequent discussion section, the
methods are first classified and then key findings are
presented by referring back to the research questions.
Finally the main aspects are summarized in a
conclusion section and need for future research is
stated.
2 RESEARCH METHOD
2.1 Aim and Research Questions
The aim of this study is to identify existing Predictive
Maintenance methods in a service context, and the
role of Social Media data within these approaches.
To guide the ongoing literature review a series of
research questions have been developped:
1. Which basic approaches are using existing
Predictive Maintenance methods? To be
more specific, in which company sectors are
they used?
2. Are the existing approaches focused on
products or services and do they provide
value for B2B or B2C businesses?
3. Which data basis and data format is the
individual Predictive Maintenance method
using? Are existing approaches already
using Social Media data?
4. What are the challenges existing methods
are facing?
5. Which assets can be extracted from the
existing methods?
2.2 Research Strategy
A research strategy for this study had been defined,
that followed a Systematic Literature Review
procedure. Thus, the relevant data sources, time
frame and keywords for the research had been defined
in advance.
Initially a broad selection of databases for
covering diverse publications (e.g. journal articles,
conference proceedings and books) had been selected
and the search included the data sources IEEE, ACM
and JSTOR along with more traditional library
cataloguing systems. In addition, an Internet search
was conducted following a similar process for getting
a complete picture of the research area.
Moreover, keywords had been identified, that
were directly connected with Predictive Maintenance
(e.g. Predictive Analytic, Predictive Model,
Predictive Method). Many of these keywords had
been combined with ‘Service’, ‘Social’, and ‘Social
Media’ in order to ensure their relevance for this
study. The set of keywords was then adjusted after
having discovered relevant articles.
Furthermore, this study focused on literature
published in the last three years.
A large number of articles could be discovered by
browsing through the chosen databases, using the
keywords and considering the selected time period. In
a further analysis step, duplicates had been removed
and the relevance of the single articles to this study
had been checked. The abstracts of the remaining
articles had been screened and appropriate
publications had been fully read. Initially the research
identified about 100 articles, reports and books. This
had been carefully filtered to determine eleven
publications, that represent Predictive Maintenance
methods directly relevant to the research enquiry.
It is the analysis of these articles that forms the
basis of the findings in this paper.
3 EXISTING METHODS AND
APPROACHES
There has been publications of researches on
Predictive Maitenance since 1986. With the digital
transformation Predictive Maintenance gained
increased attention from researchers. Thus, there is a
significant amount of publications up from 2014 and
they mainly originate in industry nations like USA
and states of the EU. Based on the researches done in
this area, a general understanding and definitions of
the relevant terms has been established.
Thus, Predictive Maintenance can be defined as a
technique which helps to predict potential defects and
to plan maintenance intervals (Mobley, 2002, pp. 4–
6). Predictive Maintenance does not only involve the
software component - the algorithm -, it rather
consists of several components (Microsoft
Corporation, 2017). Important components are the IT
ICEIS 2018 - 20th International Conference on Enterprise Information Systems
224
infrastructure, the used sensors for data mining, the
data itself, the availability of the data, the error-
proneness, humans as well as laws and guidelines
(Hashemian & Bean, 2011). Predictive Maintenance
refers to the idea or procedure that aims in predicting
maintenance activities (Rault & Baskiotis, 1986).
Predictive Modelling is a collection of methods to
analyze and to interpret data with the aim of deriving
predictions. These predictions are not statements
about the future, but about the probability that a
specific case will happen in a defined timeframe
(Gartner, 2017a; OnPage.org GmbH, 2017).
Predictive Analytics refers to the analysis of data, that
does not represent a prediction of the future, but
rather makes a statement about the best possible
calculated probability of a case (Gartner, 2017b;
Olson & Wu, 2017, pp. 5–6).
During the literature review eleven researches
about specific Predictive Maintenance approaches
with relevance to this study could be identified. These
existing methods vary in the industry they are focused
on and are using different technical approaches and
data. The table below summarizes main features of
each method by outlining their industry and focus,
giving a short description about their functionality,
analyzing the data sources as well as clarifying if the
method has already been validated empirically.

4 DISCUSSION
4.1 Classification of the Individual
Approaches
There are several works available which mention key
parameters of Predictive methods.
Each Predictive method is facing different
challenges and different factors for analyzation,
prediction and visualization need to be considered
(Chowdhury & Akram, 2011). Thus, the clear
description of the key challenges of the methods is
important (Chandola, Banerjee, & Kumar, 2009).
Rio uses a classification to describe Maintenance
methods with the help of different parameters and
asset attributes (Rio, 2017). According to Chandola
the data has to be categorized, as data is one of the
main components of Predictive methods (Chandola et
al., 2009, pp. 6–7; Han & Kamber, 2008, pp. 6–15).
Moreover, Haarman mentions the more data of
different sources is available, the better the prediction
can be done and by using available technology, as
data mining, machine learning or analytics, the
maturity level of a specific Predictive method
increases (Haarman, Mulders, & Vassiliadis, 2017,
pp. 4–9).
Thus, in order to gain a better overview of the
individual methods and for being able to compare
them, they had been classified along the following
parameters:
‘Focus of the Method’: This parameter will
help to see, if the existing methods are more
focused on B2C or B2B and whether they
provide value for products or services.
‘Data Source and Data Creation’: For this
research enquiry it is especially interesting
to see whether the approaches link different
data formats and if they are already using
Social Media data. Furthermore, it is
analyzed, if the methods use exclusively
automatically generated data or a
combination of automatically and
specifically (manually) generated data.
Challenges’: The main challenges, that
could be detected during the development of
the method and the evaluation of the
methods, are pointed out. This will help to
derive important aspects, that future
algorithms focused on Predictive
Maintenance should consider.
‘Assets’: Here the benefits and assets of the
specific approaches are highlighted. This is
especially interesting, as these assets might
be applied to different sectors and industries.
The following table provides a simplified
overview of the classification of the methods:

detected, if the failure
cause lies in the

might have an impact on a

4.2 Addressing Research Questions
and Key Findings
Based on the findings of the literature review and the
classification of the relevant approaches, the research
questions stated in the beginning are addressed and
key findings are outlined.
Referring to Research Question 1, it can be
concluded that there is not one single universal
technical solution available that is best suited for
Predictive Maintenance. The analyzed methods have
selected different data mining technologies
depending on their needs and industries. Overall, all
methods attempt to derive patterns and connections
from the existing data in order to use them for
maintenance and Predictive services. Especially for
industries with highly critical products and services,
like aerospace and medical products and services,
Predictive methods have already been developed and
applied. Highly critical refers to the direct influence
on humans and their well-being.
Predictive methods have either been developed
for B2C or B2B industries and moreover, there is no
ICEIS 2018 - 20th International Conference on Enterprise Information Systems
228
clear tendency regarding their orientation towards
product-specific solutions or services. There are
methods with product- or service-orientation. Thus,
referring to Research Question 2 the methods provide
value for B2B and B2C as well as products and
services.
Regarding the data base (Research Question 3) it
can be derived, that for the majority of the evaluated
methods, heterogeneous data that was generated
automatically, represents the data base. Nevertheless,
some methods already merge data which is generated
by humans, e.g. medical reports (see method 5) and
thus, involve subjective aspects. Three approaches
already use Social Media data for their predictions.
This data includes information about relations, posts,
tweets, comments, discussions, statuses and
reactions. Only one approach (see method 7) uses
data from social networks and combine it with data
from other sources.
One of the major challenges (Research Question
4) refers to legal aspects. It is important that the
companies inform the customers about their data
collection and make clear what kind of data is
collected and in which way. As in Europe the users
are quite skeptical about data collection (TNS
Infratest, 2016), this challenge is an important success
factor of a Predictive method (see method 4, 5 and 6).
Moreover, user's personal data highly contributes to
the quality and accuracy of the predictions. In
general, the more data is available and used,
especially personal information, the more accurate
the predictions are. Thus, the right quantity and
quality of data is highly critical for the success of
Prediction methods. For reaching this, the matching
data source for the specific prediction problem has to
be chosen and accurate filtering with inclusions and
exclusions as well as redundancy filters has to be
applied (see method 3, 7, 8, 9 and 11).
The analysis revealed (Research Question 5) that
not every Predictive Maintenance approach would
have a significant advantage by the use of Social
Media data (see method 1 and 3). Especially
approaches and methods with focus on B2B are most
likely the ones which will not benefit from Social
Media data. This is caused by the fact, that individuals
usually do not speak about highly technical B2B
products and services in Social Media and thus, in
most cases no or very little information is available.
This is confirmed by the analysis of this paper, as only
approaches with focus on B2C are currently using
Social Media data (see method 6, 7 and 11).
These methods offer new ways to identify
additional data, potential defects, and risks from a
social view, e.g. using social profile data for gaining
demographic information (see method 6), enhancing
taxi services by considering social relations (see
method 7), and improving train services through
considering customer insights and opinions about the
company (method 11). On the one hand companies
will create a closer relation to their customers
particularly in the B2C sector when considering
Social Media data. On the other hand, customers
profit from a better service, receive more information
and guidance for using a product or service in the best
way.
5 CONCLUSIONS AND FUTURE
RESEARCH
In conclusion, there are a few Predictive methods in
different industries (B2B and B2C) with focus on
service-oriented topics. For most of the existing
Predictive methods in the B2B sector, the enrichment
with Social Media data is difficult. Thus, especially
the B2C sector can profit a lot of Social Media data,
as there is much more information available which is
highly user specific and can be linked to specific
products and services.
However, only very little approaches with focus
on B2C currently link purely machine-generated data
with human-made data from social networks.
With this, a major gap in existing research is
identified, as so far there is no universal Predictive
Maintenance solution available, that helps B2C
organizations to predict and enhance their customer
services by using the full potential that can be realized
through integrating Social Media data and combine it
with other data sources.
Thus, future research should aim in answering the
following research questions:
Which tools and keywords should be used to
gather Social Media data with focus on
products and services in the B2C sector?
How has this data to be processed for its
further use in Predictive Maintenance
solutions? How can non-related and redundant
data be excluded by using inclusion and
exclusion parameters?
Can algorithms of existing Predictive methods
be extended by Social Media data? How
should Social Media data be applied to?
Further research has the aim of gaining an added
value for companies and customers in the B2C sector,
by increasing the accuracy of predictions in a service
context through the consideration of Social Media
data.
