Training Course: Planning and scheduling maintenance work Comprehensive

Introduction

The maintenance of physical assets can no longer be treated as an 'engineering problem'. The competitive environment in which business operates requires an approach that integrates the operational objectives of the business and the life-cycle objectives of the physical assets.

Leading industrial organizations are evolving away from reactive ("fix-it-when-it-breaks") management into predictive, productive management ("anticipating, planning, and fix-it-before-it-breaks"). This evolution requires well-planned and executed actions on several fronts.

Our highly interactive program is designed to provide the workforce with essential physical asset management skills, gain a clear understanding of their role and work more effectively within a team environment.

"Maintenance is not only part of the production process, but it must also be planned into the production process."

Objectives

Leading industrial organizations are evolving away from reactive ("fix-it-when-it-breaks") management into predictive, productive management ("anticipating, planning, and fix-it-before-it-breaks"). This evolution requires well-planned and executed actions on several fronts.

• Identify planning best practices and key Elements for taking action on them

• Understand how world-class organizations solve common planning problems,

• Evaluate your practices compared to those of others

• Improve the use of your information and communication tools

• Improve productivity through the use of better, more timely information

• Create and preserve lead-time in work management and use it for planning and scheduling resources

• Improve consistency and reliability of asset information

Methodology

Facilitated by an experienced maintenance specialist, our program will be conducted as a highly interactive work session (as opposed to lectures), encouraging participants to share their own experiences and apply the program material to real-life situations. Program size will be limited to 30 delegates in order to stimulate discussion and efficiency of subject coverage. Each delegate will receive an extensive reference manual, as well as case studies, while worked out solutions will be handed out to the delegates on the conclusion of group discussions. Throughout the program, delegates will be encouraged to identify what they can do to enhance Maintenance Planning, Scheduling and Work Control in their organizations
