]]> Why Attend

The military initially pioneered preventive maintenance as a means to increase the reliability of their naval vessels. By simply expending the necessary resources to conduct maintenance activities intended by the equipment designer, equipment life is extended and its reliability is increased. In addition to an increase in reliability, more money is saved in comparison to the cost of a program just using reactive maintenance. Studies indicate that these savings can amount to as much as 12% to 18% on average. Depending on a facility’s current maintenance practices, present equipment reliability, and facility downtime, there is little doubt that many facilities are purely reliant on reactive maintenance. By implementing a proper preventative maintenance program, they could save much more than 18%.

​This course will give participants an in-depth understanding of preventive and predictive maintenance practices; it will also cover a number of best practice techniques such as Total Productive Maintenance, Reliability Centered Maintenance, Condition Based Monitoring, Failure Modes and Effects Analysis, and Root Cause Failure Analysis.

Course Methodology

The course is interactive and is comprised of lectures, case studies, technical process learning and supplemental discussions related to various industries and the challenges of implementation.

Course Objectives

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

  • Develop, implement and supervise the preventive and predictive maintenance program
  • Implement the latest techniques and management styles of leading facilities and maintenance management practices
  • Optimize the effectiveness of maintenance, by using sophisticated techniques and methods, to economize time, money and resources
  • Prevent and limit equipment failures, and rework to improve the equipment’s overall effectiveness and reliability
  • Decrease downtime and increase profit for their organization

Target Audience

This course is designed for all Maintenance Managers/Engineers, Supervisors and Planning Engineers. It is also suitable for those who are in operations, engineering and purchasing/materials divisions and who would like to acquire an understanding of how the quality of the maintenance function affects their department, and their organization’s bottom-line.

Target Competencies

  • Develop Maintenance Programs
  • Implement Maintenance Programs
  • Optimize Maintenance Resources
  • Implement Best Practice Maintenance Techniques

]]> Why Attend

To survive in today’s world of ‘lean and mean’ operations, we cannot wait for breakdowns. As a matter of fact, we should make responding to breakdowns the exception in our daily workload, not the norm. A successful and effective maintenance operation has to break away from the ‘fix it when it breaks’ mentality. The ultimate goal of the maintenance department should be to ‘stop’ things from breaking, increase assets availability and reliability and do so with the lowest possible cost.

This has certainly put immense pressure on the maintenance department management team. In this course, various best practices will be presented that deliver the above objectives.

Course Methodology

The course uses a mix of interactive and hands-on techniques. Besides the brief presentations by the consultant and the participants, there will be many individual and group exercises. The course also includes a maintenance department audit checklist which the participants will individually complete during the course to evaluate the effectiveness of their respective departments.

Course Objectives

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

  • Demonstrate the latest concepts and techniques required for managing or supervising a maintenance unit
  • Examine the organizational and managerial considerations for effective maintenance work
  • Apply techniques to measure Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE)
  • Distinguish and optimize the special characteristics of maintenance activities
  • Debunk safety myths safety and identify unsafe acts and conditions
  • Identify common maintenance Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and develop the maintenance department scorecard

Target Audience

Those involved in the supervision or management of maintenance activities; also anyone interested in learning more about the critical role of maintenance in a company.

Target Competencies

  • Maintenance theory and practice
  • Maintenance work processes
  • Influence and communication skills
  • Financial evaluation
  • Safety theories and principles
  • Performance management
