Course Introduction
Modern Maintenance Technologies provides all the delegates with great opportunities to optimise the performance of their systems and equipment to achieve maximum return on investment (ROI). By reducing costs and downtime, while achieving high levels of safety and quality. However, with the rapid pace of change in maintenance and the emergence of many new concepts, methods, and technologies, it is often difficult for managers with maintenance responsibilities to judge which of these new technologies are most appropriate to their specific needs and which will provide them with the greatest benefits in practice.
Basic maintenance philosophy
The very basic maintenance philosophy one cannot deny: clean, tight, and lubricated, and how to implement these correctly in almost all industries (an old maintenance approach to even ultra-modern assets).
Good maintenance is a simple maintenance, an old-fashioned maintenance view, even in the modern maintenance approach. This seminar provides an overview of a number of Modern Maintenance Technologies associated with equipment, systems, people, and management. It describes both the background to each technology and its practical application to achieve the best bottom-line results. The seminar looks at which areas of the maintenance manager’s responsibilities will benefit from individual technologies. It also shows how they can be integrated to support each other, how to choose an appropriate selection of technologies, and how to develop an action plan for their implementation.
Course objective
- Apply the appropriate Modern Maintenance Technologies, as each of these Technologies contributes to Maintenance Efficiency and Performance.
- Develop an action plan to utilize these technologies in their own areas of responsibility, fitting them into the overall maintenance strategy, and measuring benefits
- Identify the Maintenance Optimization Best Practice Techniques and identify the equipment failures and their implications to the operational organization.
- Design a Maintenance Plan for the upkeep and Maintenance Inspections of Static and Rotating Plant.
- Develop an action Plan to utilize these Technologies in their own areas of responsibility, fitting them into the overall Maintenance Strategy, and Measuring Benefits.
- Identify the world-class maintenance standards and how to apply them, and describe the importance of the maintenance strategy for plant maintenance activities.
- Develop and implement KPI’s and benefits tracking tools, and develop Organizational Competency related to Maintenance.
