Most maintenance, reliability, and production/operations people understand the value of reliable assets. And countless organizations have attempted to utilize condition monitoring and reliability improvement techniques to achieve reliable, dependable assets. But what percentage of those programs achieve the benefits they set out to achieve? How many of those programs are still active five years after their establishment? Sadly, the answer is precious few… Unfortunately, too many organizations either take a piecemeal approach, with a smattering of the “obvious elements” that are discussed at most conferences (CBM, RCM, PMO, RCA, etc.), or they have no real plan, or they fail to achieve any improvement in the “culture of reliability” – or all of the above. In this presentation, Jason will briefly recap why so many programs fail to achieve the desired benefits and then outline a step-by-step strategy for implementing the program. Every stage, step, and milestone has defined goals – skip them at your peril! In this 45-minute session, it will not be possible to explain every step (and very few of the milestones), but it will, at the very least, provide an opportunity to reflect on why your program may not be achieving its stated goals, and it will certainly provide a roadmap for those just getting started with a new reliability-improvement initiative.
