RELIABILITY CENTERED MAINTENANCE

OVERVIEW

Reliability Centred Maintenance (RCM) is commonly used to help establish safe minimum levels of maintenance, determine changes to operating procedures and help establish maintenance regimes and plans. Successful implementation can result in cost savings, machine uptime and improved risk management. But the devil’s in the detail – how can you achieve these benefits and successfully implement RCM in your organisation? This programme will help you do just that.

 OBJECTIVES

To provide a better understanding of RCM, particularly:

• What, why, how and who?
• Opportunities and benefits
• Risks
• Cost effectiveness

PARTICIPANTS

• Facilities and maintenance managers, their teams and their suppliers.
• This workshop uses a mixture of formal tutor inputs, practical exercises, case studies,  and tutor-facilitated discussion.
• The programme  gives more scope to (a) tailor the content to reflect client’s specific requirements and (b) reinforce the learning through more practical exercises and case studies.
