Narrative literature review of facilitators and barriers to implementing computerized maintenance management systems in low-middle-income countries

ConclusionThe importance of proper HTM in resource-limited hospital settings cannot be overlooked. The absence of proper HTM can be, in part, attributed to the shortage of skilled engineers. This emphasizes the need for access to continued biomedical engineering education to continue to advance and develop HTM in low resource settings. Although the implementation of CMMS in LMICs presents a multitude of challenges, our review found that it is by no means unfeasible, especially when adequate standardization and local context are taken into consideration.
