Introduction
Lower revenues due to lower commodity prices have placed equipment life-cycle costs under the management spotlight like never before. Maintainers are faced with the challenge to deliver the same levels of equipment safety, reliability and availability with smaller budgets. This Maintenance Engineering workshop on Maintenance & Reliability Best Practices introduces the practical tools and practices that organizations need to adopt to drive down their equipment life-cycle costs in practical ways.
This Maintenance Engineering workshop emphasizes the most effective strategies, policies, tactics and practices that are needed to ensure the reliability, integrity and durability of the physical assets through their life-cycle.
This workshop will highlight:
- Financial Concepts of Costs, Capital, Profit and Return On Investment
- The Model for Asset Healthcare
- Cost Impact of Equipment Failure and Degradation
- Proactive Practices and Tools to Reduce Maintenance Costs
- Failure Analysis to Focus Cost Reduction Efforts
- Work Management to Improve Resource Efficiency
Objectives
- Understand the concepts of costs, capital, profit and ROI
- Understand the cost impact of unanticipated failure
- Apply proactive policies to reduce future maintenance costs
- Structure and analyses failure data to reduce repetitive failures
- Identify root causes of unanticipated failure costs
- Reduce resource costs through efficient work management practices
At the end of this workshop you will learn to:
Training Methodology
This is an interactive course. There will be open question and answer sessions, regular group exercises and activities, videos, case studies and presentations on best practice. Participants will have the opportunity to share with the facilitator and other participants on what works well and not so well for them, as well as work on issues from their own organizations.
