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. The overall cost of asset ownership is closely tied to the outcomes of reliability, durability and longevity of physical assets. This EuroMaTech training course is about developing and implementing the strategy and tactics that deliver the outcomes we need.

This Excellence in Maintenance and Reliability Management training course 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 Excellence in Maintenance and Reliability Management training course 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 EuroMaTech training course.

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
