4 Ways To Achieve MRO Reliability
A Customized CMMS
A computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) can connect the
benefits of MDL and asset reliability into usable data to support maintenance
reliability programs. A CMMS must be more than processing work orders,
controlling budgets, etc. It must be capable of "connecting the dots" of all principles
of preventive maintenance procedures to optimize MTTR.
Going from an existing process to a reliable MRO storeroom requires change, which
in turn requires management support. To gain this support, the potential benefits,
both financial and non-financial, must be calculated and documented. These
benefits can accrue to all plant disciplines, including procurement, finance,
engineering and maintenance.
In conclusion, the MRO supply chain is replete with duplicated tasks and
unnecessary costs. In addition, the strategy used to manage the MRO storeroom is
often not in sync with the asset management approach employed by plant
maintenance. By employing the four functions outlined above, you can achieve
MRO coordination with asset reliability as well as optimize the total cost of
ownership.
