Zusammenfassung:	Computerized method and system for identification and evaluation of a repair likely to prevent a failure of a mobile asset is provided. The method allows collecting data indicative of an incipient malfunction in the mobile asset (e.g., 1006). The method further allows collecting usage data indicative of usage of the mobile asset (e.g., 1002). The usage data is processed relative to historical data collected from a fleet of corresponding mobile assets to generate a usage profile for that asset (e.g., 1004). The data indicative of incipient malfunctions is processed to generate a prediction of a failure in the mobile asset and at least one repair likely to prevent the failure of the mobile asset (e.g., 1010). A repair weight indicative of a probability that the repair will prevent the predicted failure is determined (e.g., 466). The repair weight is adjusted based on the usage profile of the asset (e.g., 1014), and the adjusted repair weight is used to evaluate the repair, for example, to evaluate whether or not the repair should be performed (e.g., 1016).
