This training seminar will highlight:

• Preventive & predictive maintenance strategies and their position within Asset Management
• Risk Based Maintenance
• Maintenance & reliability engineering best practices
• Best practices in planning and scheduling (workflow management)
• The application of CMMS
• Monitoring & managing performance with Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s)
• Continuous improvement aspects

At the end of this training seminar, you will learn to:

• Understand how world-class organizations solve common planning problems
• Improve productivity through use of better, more timely information
• Implement a practical and effective predictive maintenance effort
• Improve consistency and reliability of asset information
• Optimize preventive and predictive maintenance strategies

This training seminar is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:

• Maintenance Managers & Supervisors
• Personnel designated as planners, or identified to become planners
• Predictive Maintenance Technicians & Supervisors
• Key leaders from each Maintenance craft
• Maintenance & Reliability engineers
• Materials Management Managers/Supervisors
• CMMS key users

The training seminar will be conducted along interactive workshop principles. There will be a variance of lectures and practical exercises. Experiences from different areas will be discussed. There will be many opportunities for discussion and sharing experiences.
