Overview
For long term and sustainable success, it is important to start with the first step of the World Class Maintenance Model. The strength of each step in the model will influence the overall success of process reliability in your organization.
Do not jump any steps. Many organizations attempt Reliability Centred Maintenance
(RCM) and fail - without first having fundamental maintenance management in place.
3) List at least three objectives for your Maintenance Organization: 1) 2) 3) 4) If your Maintenance Organization does not have a Mission Statement or it is unclear, write a good Mission Statement by answering the following: Who are you?

Step 1: Identify
Fe e
db ac
The process by which maintenance work is identified, justified and prioritized. Identified work should have one or more of the following goals: Improved safety Elimination of unnecessary work Increased reliability and productivity Correct equipment operation Continual improvement / eliminate recurring problems
Work can be identified from sources such as: Operator or Technician observations Safety audits and employee concerns Maintenance Tactics Preventive Maintenance (PM), Predictive Maintenance (PdM) Inspection during PM or PdM tasks Regulatory requirements Equipment upgrades
14
The identification and documentation process should be the same for all work. Use a standardized Work Request form. Establish minimum information required. All Work Requests to be reviewed by Operations, Engineering and Maintenance. All Work Requests to be prioritized. Assign priority according to equipment criticality.
Step 2: Plan
Fe e
db ac
The process by which maintenance work is planned determines What needs to be done, including: amount of work, detailed to task-level, including time requirements preparation work by Operations required resources (skills, tools, materials) required safety procedures established or new work procedures
15
Planners assign highest priorities to Health and Safety items. Each job should be planned only once (such as Preventive Maintenance and Predictive Maintenance work) and then saved for future use. A good maintenance plan will be fully documented and will communicate with Scheduling. Unplanned work costs 3 to 4 times more than planned work. Planning must be integrated with Materials Management (e.g., Spare Parts) and Maintenance Tactics.
Step 3: Schedule
Fe e
db ac
The process by which maintenance work is scheduled for execution. Each element of the Maintenance Plan is scheduled in detail. This includes resources, the shutdown and preparation of equipment, and the delivery of tools and materials to the job site. Requires a backlog of planned work, about 2 - 4 weeks per maintenance crew. About 50% of available manpower should be scheduled for Preventive Maintenance (PM) and Predictive Maintenance (PdM) work. Start with a Daily Schedule, but eventual goal should be a Weekly Schedule. Worlds best maintenance organizations are scheduling work 2 weeks in advance!
16
Daily Schedule: Created from Work Orders identified on Weekly Schedule. Created by first-line supervisors. Schedule 100% of available manpower. Daily Schedule Meeting to review status of current days work and work scheduled for next day. 10 minutes long (maximum) and held in afternoon. Solve any problems outside the meeting.
Weekly Schedule: Created from Work Order Backlog. Created by Scheduler with input from Operations, Engineering and Maintenance. Schedule 80% of available manpower. Weekly Meeting to review status of current weeks work and work scheduled for following week.
Step 4: Assign
Fe
ed
ba
ck
17
The process that determines who will execute the scheduled work. Those assigned to a job must match the scheduled work, with consideration of: Experience Training and Skills Availability Personal limitations (physical, phobias, etc.) Possible conflicts with other personnel
Traditionally, the crew supervisor assigns work. Assigned work should be communicated to the technician as far in advance as possible. Once assigned, the completion of the work is the responsibility of the technician.
Step 5: Execute
Fe e
db ac
18
The process by which planned maintenance work is completed in accordance with the schedule. Execution involves three groups of people: The Planner The Crew Leader The Technician
Before the work begins: Planner issues a prioritized schedule and corresponding job plans. Crew leader confirms safety requirements. Technician prepares for the job and confirms safety precautions (e.g., isolations, hot permits, etc.). During the work: Planner will record and report progress and additional work discovered to management. Crew Leader will report progress at Daily and Weekly Schedule Meetings, and will also monitor safety of working environment. Technician will perform work, maintain a safe working environment, report additional work required, and record equipment information.
At completion of the work: Technician documents work performed, cause of failure, parts and tools used, and equipment measurements. Planner reviews Technician work documentation, compares with original plan and makes corrections for future work.
19
Step 6: Analyze
Fe e
db ac
The process by which the Maintenance Work Management process is evaluated and adjusted: To close the gap between actual performance and required performance of equipment and assets To improve the MWM process itself (Identify, Plan, Schedule, Assign, Execute, Analyze) You cant improve what you dont measure.
Input Measures
Process Measures
Output Measures
20
Output Measures Equipment availability, reliability, effectiveness Measurements to be understood by all and communicated on a monthly basis. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are the important measures that should be trended over time and displayed. Each month determine which assets had the top ten costs, the top ten downtime hours, and top ten occurrences of outages. Assets that appear on all three lists need to be addressed immediately!
The best Performance Measures: Track important and relevant information Produce reports regularly and consistently Compare against benchmarks or history Analyze significant trends or changes (good or bad) and determine causes Taking immediate action to correct undesirable trends
Other Considerations
A Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) is NOT necessary for MWM. A properly designed and utilized CMMS, however, can assist MWM a great deal. A good CMMS program will facilitate all Six Steps of MWM. Your MWM process must be working properly before a CMMS program is implemented (otherwise, your problems will multiply!)

3) Draw an arrow to match each step of MWM to it's key activities: Schedule Recognized work is recorded, justified and prioritized Tasks, tools, parts and resources to complete a job are detailed and recorded. Planned work is placed in the department timetable for execution. Designating which maintenance technician(s) will carryout scheduled work. Planned work is completed in accordance with the schedule.

MAINTENANCE TACTICS
World Class Maintenance Model
Process Redesign RCM Continuous Improvement
Maintenance Tactics
Maintenance Work Management Management Systems, Policies and Procedures
Definition
Maintenance Tactics are the techniques that guide how maintenance activities are implemented. For new equipment, follow recommendations of the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). Once equipment history and experience is available, use RCM Decision Logic to help select the appropriate maintenance tactic. (RCM Decision Logic will be discussed shortly.)
25
Redundancy Install stand-by equipment The cooling water pump failed. Switch to the standby and enter a Work Request to have the primary pump fixed
Scheduled Component Replacement Replace parts based on time Replace gear-tooth coupling every 18 months
Scheduled Overhaul Rebuild equipment based on time (e.g. annual shutdown) Rebuild compressor every 4 years
Ad Hoc / Opportunity Window Make repairs whenever production or resources allow Operations ran out of feed. Lets fix that bad pump
Preventive Maintenance (PM) Adjustments, lubrication, cleaning, etc. based on time Lubricate motor bearings every 2 weeks
26
Condition-Based / Predictive Maintenance (PdM) Schedule repairs based on performance measurements and observations Vibration analysis indicates bad alignment between the pump and gear box. Plan then schedule a repair for the installation Redesign Alter equipment design when condition cannot be observed or failures are difficult to predict Install an inspection door on the ID Fan duct to allow examination of the brick insulation...
Other Considerations
Maintenance Tactics are selected for each: Equipment class (pumps, motors) Equipment location (P101, M101...) Equipment component (impeller, bearings)
The criticality of the equipment should influence to what level maintenance tactics are applied. Maintenance Tactics heavily influence Materials Management (Spare Parts Optimization), Staffing Levels, Technician Skills and Training.
27
2) To determine Maintenance Tactics for new equipment, you should first consult: a. Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) Recommendations b. Similar equipment at your facility c. The tactics used on your most reliable equipment 3) If your facility does not have comprehensive Maintenance Tactics, the best place to start is by selecting tactics for each equipment. 4) If the equipment is critical to Operations and production, to what level should Maintenance Tactics be applied: F Specific Equipment Location F Equipment Components
5) Your choice of Maintenance Tactics will influence: a. b. c. d. Spare Parts Technician Staffing Technician Skills and Training All of the above
6) Which of the following will influence your choice of Maintenance Tactic? F MTTR F MTBF F Spare Parts Availability F Spare Parts Cost F Production Cost F Cost of Labour

Continuous Improvement
Maintenance Tactics Maintenance Work Management Management Systems, Policies and Procedures
Definition
Continual Improvement is a process by which unwanted failures are identified and eliminated. It is a collaboration between Management, Operations and Maintenance. Continual Improvement will improve maintenance efficiency, equipment performance, production value and profits. Recognizing potential problems before they occur can save as much as 80% of the cost of fixing the problem reactively. Unwanted failures can be eliminated: Reactively (after the failure occurs) Proactively (before the failure occurs)

4. Maintenance Tactics 5. Continual Improvement 6. Reliability Centered Maintenance Appendices (Assets / Equipment Lists, RCM Worksheets, Organization Charts, References, etc)
Each section of the Maintenance Manual must have: An Owner A Revision Record An Audit Record
The Master Maintenance Manual should be kept by the Maintenance Manager and should contain a Distribution Record. Maintenance Engineers and Maintenance Planners should keep copies of the Manual. Copies of the Manual should also be available to Operations and Maintenance Technicians. Complete Exercise #7 on Following Page
50
Part A:
Gather into groups 4 to 5 people and complete the following exercise. Write an action plan to start developing world-class maintenance at your organization. The action plan should include some or all of the levels of the World Class Maintenance Model as major tasks. This will depend on the current status of maintenance at your organization. The action plan should describe the following: A description of the action to be taken The estimated start date, duration and end date of the task Resources to complete the task (leaders and support roles) Potential problems, risks or hurdles for each task A contingency plan or corrective action for each potential problem
Remember that achieving World Class Maintenance is a long-term initiative and may take several years to develop! When completed, make a brief presentation of your draft action plan to the rest of the class.
51
Part B:
Complete the following exercise on your own. Review the Mission Statement from Exercise #1. Would you make any changes? How would you change the Mission Statement? Share any changes with the rest of the class.
52
SUMMARY
Improve process reliability and maintainability by following the Maintenance Excellence Model. Reliability Centered Maintenance strategy can be integrated into your Continual Improvement Program. You should now have a framework to start developing a world-class maintenance program for your own organization. Refer to the Action Plan you developed in Exercise #7 and improve upon it over time.

Service Factor = (Time Period - Forced Maintenance Hours) / Time Period MTBF = Time Period / # Forced Outages
Overall Equipment Effectiveness OEE = Operating Factor x Product Quality x Process Efficiency Reliability Failure Probability Reliability Cost = e-t / MTBF, where t = duration of forecast (hours) (Weibull Distribution, Beta = 1.0) = 1 - Reliability = Failure Probability x Average Outage Cost
The characteristics and importance of each of these Machine Factors will be illustrated by way of the following example data set:
55
Example Data Set Consider the following raw data of a centrifugal barrel compressor over a 5-Year period: Time Period: Total Failures: Total Forced Maintenance Hours: Total Planned Maintenance Hours: Total Hours Down but Available: Total Hours Down: Product Quality: Process Efficiency: Production Rate: Production Capacity: Unit Revenue: 5 Years 5 Failures 306.5 Hours 300.0 Hours 1105.8 Hours 1712.3 Hours 95% On-Spec 90% Efficiency 103% Design Capacity 77 Tonnes / Hour $33.61 / Tonne
Characteristics & Sample Calculations Operating Factor provides an overall indication of an assets chronological use. A machine that runs all year at half capacity will have a 100% Operating Factor, but the overall effectiveness of the asset would be much less. Operating Factor = (Total Time - Total Down Time) / Total Time = (5 x 8760 - 1712.3) / (5 x 8760) = 96.1% Availability Factor indicates the effectiveness of the Maintenance Function (or program, department, division, etc.). The quality of Maintenance Work Management (Identify, Plan, Schedule, Assign, Execute, Analyze) - which includes repairs, PM and PdM tasks - will determine to what degree the asset is available to Operations. Availability Factor = (Total Time - Total Unavailable Hours) / Total Time = (5 x 8760 - 300.0 - 306.5) / (5 x 8760) = 98.6%
56
Utilization Factor indicates the effectiveness of the Operations Function (or program, department, division, etc.). This factor is improved by increasing the operation time of an asset in proportion to the time it is available to produce. Utilization Factor = Operating Factor / Availability Factor = 96.1% / 98.6% = 97.4% Or Utilization Factor = Operating Hours / Available Hours = (5 x 8760 - 1712.3) / (5 x 8760 - 300.0 - 306.5) = 97.4% Service Factor indicates the overall quality of how an asset is maintained and operated, as well as the quality of the asset itself. As the quality of these elements decline, the probability of an unplanned forced outage will increase. Service Factor Service Factor = (Total Hours - Forced Maintenance Hours) / Total Hours = (5 x 8760 - 306.5) / (5 x 8760) = 99.3%
MTBF is the Mean Time Between Failure and is commonly expressed in hours. Asset behavior is better represented as the amount of historical data increases, because MTBF is a key parameter in reliability calculations. MTBF = Total Operating Hours / # Failures = (5 x 8760) / 5 = 8760 Hours MTBF is often used as a simple measure or Reliability. MTTR is the Mean Time to Repair, representing the average duration of a forced maintenance outage. MTTR is sometimes referred to as the Maintainability measure of an asset. MTTR = Total Forced Maintenance Hours / # Failures = 306.5 / 5 = 61.3 Hours
57
OEE is the Overall Equipment Effectiveness, and accounts for not only Operating Factor, but also Product Quality and Process Efficiency. Many people claim that OEE is the best single measure of a production facility. OEE = Operating Factor x Product Quality x Process Efficiency = 99.3 % x 95% x 90% = 84.9% Note: Sometimes Production Rate is substituted for Process Efficiency, depending on the nature of the facility, the process or the product. For example OEE = Operating Factor x Product Quality x Production Rate = 99.3% x 95% x 103% = 97.2% Either measure is acceptable, so long as the chosen method is consistently used. Reliability is a prediction of the chance that an asset will operate without failure for a specified time period. Consider two machines: Machine A fails one time in a given year and is down for 48 hours, while Machine B fails four times in the same year and is down for a total time of also 48 hours. Which machine is more reliable? By using the Weibull Distribution, the number of failures can be accounted for by way each machine's MTBF. The Reliability (i.e., chance that Machine A would run another year without failure) is 36.8%, while for Machine B the Reliability would only be 1.8%. Put another way, Machine B would have a 98.2% chance of failing at least one time the following year.
Reliability (t = 1 Year)
Failure Probability is the chance that an asset will fail in a specified time period and is based on the predicted reliability of the asset for that time period. Failure Probability (t = 1 Year) = 1 - Reliability (t = 1 Year) = 1 - 0.3679 = 0.6321 or 63.2%
58
Reliability Cost is a prediction of the net loss in production revenue due to the failure of a particular asset. This cost is based on the likelihood of failure multiplied by the historical average of lost production (e.g., tonnes) multiplied by the forecasted unit revenue of the product. In other words, Reliability Cost is a good predictor of future lost revenue based on the historical performance of the asset. This number can serve as the starting point for different economic analyses. For example, when deciding to make an investment that will improve asset reliability, Reliability Cost can be used as the likely penalty of the Do Nothing scenario. Or, supposing that an investment will reduce the average outage time for an asset, the consequent reduction in Reliability Cost can be justified depending on the calculated rate of return. There are methods to combine failure probabilities for components, equipment and production processes. If historical results are not available, the different parameters can be estimated from industry data or benchmarking studies. By applying the net reliability data and costs against various strategies to address root causes, the optimal management strategy for each asset may be determined
What is the predicted loss of production revenue if the compressor were fail once within the next year? Reliability Cost = Failure Probability x Cost of Lost Product = Failure Probability x (Average Forced Down Hours x Production Rate x Unit Revenue) = 63.2 % x (61.3 Hours x 77 Tonnes/Hour x $33.61/Tonne) = 63.2 % x $158,643
Reliability Cost
= $100,262
This methodology can also be extended to predict reliability costs in future years. For instance, by estimating the future reliability cost of a group or plant of assets, one may determine the optimum point in time to conduct a Plant Maintenance Shutdown for equipment repairs, overhauls, upgrades or replacements.

Maintenance Best Practices The following is a listing of recognized best practices by companies that are striving towards World Class Maintenance.
Identify
All site personnel can request maintenance work. All employees and contractors are expected to identify and report potential failures. All work requested is documented by the same process. All work orders are prioritized. The priority system for all work is linked to equipment criticality. Minimum of 45% of available personnel are scheduled for planned and proactive maintenance (PM and PdM) activities. Selection of PM tasks is based on failure mode (condition vs. time). Compliance with PM schedule is 95% or better. Rapid follow-up of problems detected during predictive or preventive maintenance activities with corrective maintenance. More than 90% of all work is managed through work orders.
60
Plan
All maintenance work requested is addressed within the Maintenance Work Planning function. Within priority groupings, Planners assign the highest priority to Health and Safety items when establishing estimates, building work plans and scheduling activities at the site. All work is planned with a work package that includes Scope List of required materials Work force requirements Required permits and safety procedures Equipment preparation by Operations Equipment needs and service Necessary schedules Any other pertinent information as appropriate
All resources required for the effective completion of work are included in work plans. All requested work is estimated with an accuracy level of + / - 10%. Planners consider asset reliability throughout the planning process. Unplanned Work is less than 15%. Planning is carried out at least 24 hours prior to being scheduled for execution (except emergencies). Planners provide: Technical assistance Work planning Materials / services procurement Support for the daily and weekly scheduling process
61
Work plans are used as a reference for similar work in the future. Planners involve Maintenance, Operations and Engineering as required throughout the planning process.
Schedule
There is a well-defined, comprehensive schedule of maintenance activities for all areas of the facility. There are excellent communications throughout the planning process. Planned work backlog averages between 2 and 4 weeks per crew. Priority is given to proactive work activities, such as preventive and predictive (PM and PdM) maintenance tasks. Minimum of 45% of available personnel are scheduled for planned proactive maintenance activities, such as preventive and predictive (PM and PdM) maintenance tasks. Manpower is assigned to work that has the highest priority and criticality. 80% of available manpower is scheduled on a weekly basis. Weekly meetings are held to create upcoming week's work schedule. 100% of available manpower is scheduled on a daily basis. Daily schedule review meetings are held to confirm upcoming day's work. Plant area representatives for Maintenance, Operations and Engineering departments attend all scheduling meetings. Overall schedule compliance is greater than 90%. Compliance to PM schedule is greater than 95%. Monthly meetings are held to review any major / minor plant shutdown work. Good organizations are scheduling planned activities one week in advance.
62
Excellent organizations are looking at what work will be done two weeks in advance.
Assign
100% of available manpower is scheduled to specific activities on a daily basis. Individual job assignments are based on technicians competence, experience, skills and training. Individual training and development requirements are considerations in the assignment of work activities. Individual job assignments are communicated to the crafts personnel as far in advance as possible.
Execute
All work is executed in accordance with good maintenance practices to: Enhance reliability Eliminate rework
Greater than 90% of all work is managed through work orders. The Storeroom provides "kitting" of parts and materials for scheduled work orders. A process for the delivery of parts to the work site is in place and appropriately utilized. A process for the return of unused parts to stock is in place and consistently utilized. Work history is documented for all work including emergency work. A data collection process is in place to allow tracking of breakdowns and repairs.

At the completion of the job, talk to the people who did the work to identify improvements to the job plan.
Analyze
Conduct formal review of job plans issued versus actual work executed. A process is in place to collect information and track measures (costs, %PM compliance, etc.). Data is collected for breakdowns and repairs to allow fine-tuning of PM's / PdM's (frequency and the activities carried out). Maintenance history is used to identify inadequacies in: Asset design Maintenance procedures Operating procedures
Continual use of measures (costs, materials, performance) for data analysis and trending. Measurements are well communicated and well understood throughout the plant.
Materials Management
Inventory is controlled using a computerized system that is fully integrated with the maintenance management and work planning system. Parts and materials are restocked automatically before the inventory on-hand runs out and without prompting by the maintenance crews. Order points and quantities are based on lead-time, safety stock and economic order quantities. Distributed (satellite) stores are used throughout the plant for commonly used items (e.g. fasteners, fittings and common electrical parts). Repairable spares are managed as an inventoried item.

Stock-outs represent less than 3% of orders; parts are readily available when needed. Purchasing / Stores is able to source and acquire rush emergency parts, that are not stocked, quickly and with sufficient time to avoid plant downtime. Inventory is reviewed on a regular basis to identify and delete very infrequently used or obsolete items. An ABC Analysis of the inventory is performed monthly. Annual stock rotation exceeds 1.5 times inventory value. A central tool crib is used to store and manage special tools, with tools being repaired and/or replaced as required. The Storeroom provides "kitting" of parts and materials for scheduled work orders. A process for the delivery of parts (or "kits") to the work site is in place and appropriately utilized. A process for the return of unused parts to stock is in place and consistently utilized. The number of vendors utilized is managed to take advantage of volume discounts and reduce overall cost wherever possible.

Site Planners use the maintenance management system to plan jobs and are able to select and reserve required spare parts and materials. Parts information is linked to equipment records. Finding parts for specific
equipment is easy to do and the stock records are usually accurate. There is extensive and effective use of various information technology tools such as vibration analysis technology, project management software, etc. Automated programs for data analysis and forecasting are used to support the conditioned-based maintenance techniques (PdM tools) that are utilized at the site. The maintenance department personnel, especially supervisors and trades, have been adequately trained on the appropriate functionality of all the systems they need to use. Maintenance history (failure type, failure cause, labour, parts and other materials, etc.) is recorded for all jobs and is used regularly to identify opportunities for improvement in equipment operation and reliability. Scheduling for major shutdowns is done using a project management system that determines critical path and required levels of resources.
