Making Maintenance Work Management Less Work

To effectively transfer the knowledge and skills necessary for organisations to build profitable and sustainable maintenance and reliability programs, we need to understand 'what needs to be done' and 'why it needs to be done.'

  • If it's best practice, then why isn't it our standard practice?
  • How to make good work management happen.
  • Creating a maintenance philosophy.
  • The 10 major work management processes.
  • Getting away from buy-in and getting to work.
  • Measuring for success.

Let Reliability Engineers do Some Reliability Engineering

It is all too common that companies fortunate enough to have Reliability Engineers haven’t engaged them properly. It has become acceptable practice to misuse skills and talent and even labels. Instead, we create high priced part-finders, over-qualified maintenance supervisors, and number crunchers churning out metrics no one really cares about. It is time we start putting reliability back into Reliability Engineer. A Certified Professional Reliability Engineer understands the math involved and can compel organizations to follow a path forward.

In this masterclass, you’ll gain ammunition needed to make a compelling case to finally let Reliability Engineers do some reliability engineering.

  • the science of failures.
  • the appreciation for inherent reliability.
  • the mathematical relationship between Reliability, Availability, & Maintainability.
  • a reliability culture that is hell-bent on making data driven decisions.
  • constructing an effect Asset Reference Plan.
  • compel others to see the vision.
  • the confidence to make a fiscal argument for greater reliability efforts.
