Industry 5.0 introduces a new paradigm where digital technologies support sustainable and human-centric industrial development. Within this context, resilience-based maintenance (RBM) emerges as a forward-looking maintenance strategy focused on system adaptability, fault tolerance, and recovery capacity under uncertainty. This article presents a systematic literature review (SLR) on RBM in the context of Maintenance 5.0. The review follows the PRISMA methodology and incorporates bibliometric and content-based analyses of selected publications. Key findings highlight the integration of AI methods, such as machine learning and digital twins, in enhancing system resilience. The results demonstrate how RBM aligns with the pillars of Industry 5.0, sustainability, and human-centricity, by reducing resource consumption and improving human–machine interaction. Research gaps are identified in AI explainability, sector-specific implementation, and ergonomic integration. The article concludes by outlining directions for developing Maintenance 5.0 as a strategic concept for resilient, intelligent, and inclusive industrial systems.

Many authors have highlighted the importance of physical assets maintenance management in relation to resilience engineering, especially for systems operating under significant uncertainty. Thus, the authors presented a new approach to system maintenance based on resilience concept implementation. They introduced Maintenance Support Potentials (MSP) as a measure of an organization's maintenance support capacity. Moreover, based on the MSP definition, they developed a fuzzy-based organization's maintenance support potential level assessment method. The proposed approach takes into account two main MSP parameters – potential readiness level and process regency. It followed four main steps, including organization's MSP identification/evaluation, MSP weights assessment, Maintenance Support Capacity assessment, and final reasoning. A case study of a global manufacturer from the automotive industry is presented to illustrate the method's applicability. The authors also indicated further research directions to optimize the maintenance strategy based on Resilience-Based Maintenance concept.

The main purpose of this article is to develop a method that allows for an objective quality assessment of imperfect knowledge, which is necessary for decision-making in logistics. The methodology aimed at achieving this goal is established on the system analysis of the entire process employed for obtaining, processing and using data and information as well as the knowledge generated on this basis. The result of this work is a general framework that can be used for managerial decision-making in smart systems that are part of Industry 4.0, and, in particular, Logistics 4.0. A key theoretical contribution of this framework is the concept for quantitative assessment of the maturity of imperfect knowledge acquired from Big Data. The practical implication of this concept is the possibility to use the framework for the assessment of the acceptable risk associated with a managerial decision. For this purpose, the article presents a brief example of how to use this methodology in the risk-taking decision-making process. Finally, the summary and discussion of the results are offered.
