INTRODUCTION
Achieving excellence in maintenance and reliability is the aim of every organisation that depends on its physical assets to achieve business objectives. Lower profit margins have made reducing maintenance costs imperative to the survival of many organisations.
This training seminar starts with the key aspects that lay the foundations and cornerstones of an effective maintenance function. It introduces reliability strategies such as FMECA, TPM, RCM and RCFA to highlight their costs and benefits. The training seminar will then demonstrate how these strategies are used to derive the different maintenance tactics of predictive, preventive, detective and repair-after-failure maintenance tactics.
An in depth analysis of risk-based processes such as Reliability Centered Maintenance, the principles of Risked Based Maintenance and Totally Productive Maintenance; as well as a unique, practical application of the methodologies to demonstrate how they can be applied in the real world; are integral components of this training seminar.
Participants will develop the following competencies:
- Asset functional analysis
- Failure forecasting risk assessment
- Maintenance strategy and tactics development
- Root cause of failure analysis
- Reliability improvement project facilitation
BENEFITS
Delegates should represent members of the organisation that play a leadership, management and supervisory role in the operation and maintenance of the company’s physical assets, including:
- Reliability engineers
- Maintenance planners
- Maintenance supervisors
- Maintenance engineers
- Operations and process team leaders
SEMINAR OBJECTIVES
By the end of this seminar, delegates will be able to:
- Compare their current maintenance strategies to industry best practice
- Understand the benefits and costs of alternative maintenance strategies
- Define maintenance strategies for a specific system using a decision support process and tools
- Analyse failures and determine the root causes using the tools and templates provided
- Implement reliability improvement methodologies correctly
- Prepare maintenance schedules and procedures for implementation
TRAINING METHODOLOGY
This seminar is a combination of instructor lead topic areas and class discussions. Interactive discussions broaden perspectives and clarify areas of uncertainty. Practical exercises are used extensively to build confidence and the ability to apply what has been learned at the workplace. Questions and active participation in the sessions is encouraged to eliminate reduce any uncertainty.
SEMINAR SUMMARY
This seminar delivers all the methodologies that are essential for progressing an organisation’s maintenance and reliability management to the excellence level. Although the methodologies are sound and have been around for many years, it is the application and implementation that usually goes wrong. This is an opportunity to learn from an expert how to implement the methodologies correctly and avoid the high cost of pitfalls and recriminations that that follow from poorly conceived attempts.
