Reliability Centered Maintenance

Purpose:
The purpose of this course is to give technical and supervisory personnel the knowledge to decide when to use RCM instead of other methods to develop preventive maintenance tasking. The course includes a hands-on exercise performing RCM analysis on a common system.

Objectives:
At the completion of this course you will:

  • Have conducted an FMECA of a simple system
  • Have developed a planned maintenance regime for that system using RCM principals
  • Have gained the knowledge to apply these techniques to individual pieces of equipment in your organization.

Description:
This is a four day course. It involves extensive hands on work by the student. Actual application of the principals discussed will be done to a simple system of the students choosing during the class. The course can be modified to place more emphasis on either FMECA or RCM as desired
