Maintenance Strategy Development


Overview

Course Description

In this 2-3 day course, discover how to analyze failure data by going further than just MTBF. Linking the Weibull distribution to the logical Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) approach, this class will provide a justified outcome to maintenance strategies that can be implemented through to preventative maintenance documentation. By utilizing software to logically follow the step-by-step pathway to optimized maintenance strategy development, the course will drive excellent asset performance at low cost and risk.


Benefits - Enables engineers to develop justified, optimized maintenance strategies following an RCM approach.  (RCM201)

Program Outline
Day 1
  • Analysing failure data. Utilizing MTBF & MTTR and explaining the flaws. 
  • Introducing the Weibull distribution and its benefits for Reliability data analysis. The importance of analysis at a failure mode level and applying the corresponding Weibull shape. 
  • Practical exercises analysing failure and suspensions data with Weibull. How to analyse with limited failure data. How to be more efficient with failure analysis. 
  • Introducing the RCM methodology approach for maintenance optimization. 
  • How to justify maintenance by linking through Business Goals & Asset Strategies.  
  • Identifying system boundaries, functional analysis & failure mode definitions. 
  • Applying failure consequences for cost & risk, and failure frequencies. Analysing the Run-To-Failure strategy. 
  • Inspections, predictive maintenance & preventative choices. Understanding P-F intervals. 
Day 2
  • Learning by doing exercises; understanding the complexities of calculating maintenance justification without computers. 
  • Building an RCM model from scratch. Performing task optimization as a group, identifying the optimal strategy & intervals, and justifying the reasons. 
  • Grouping of tasks to create maintenance plans. 
  • Preparing for implementation; load sheet into CMMS creation and preventative maintenance instruction documents.
Day 3 (Optional)
  • Further learning by doing exercises, add complexity. Building an RCM model from scratch. Performing task optimization as a group, identifying the optimal strategy & intervals, and justifying the reasons. Showing the comparison of cost & risk. 
  • Importing failure data, creating Weibull sets, linking to the RCM model.
