Companies must make productive use of all their resources - labor, material, capital - through best maintenance practices. Planning, Management and Work Control has the greatest profit potential of any maintenance function — a “reliable” way to quickly improve maintenance performance and service.

The program is intended to introduce participants to a deep and advanced knowledge of maintenance objectives, problems associated with poor maintenance program. A focuses are directed on maintenance documentation, maintenance strategies, reliability-centered maintenance, total productive maintenance, failure profile of plant machinery, acceptance standard and maintenance key performance evaluation and indicators. Computer applications on maintenance planning, maintenance scheduling, management and work control will be addressed too. Emphasis on various aspects of optimum maintenance sequencing, associated costs, replacement decision, task assignment & allocation, managing maintenance spare parts and problem solving process. In addition, trainees will learn how to sell management teams on the importance of these roles and how to gain the cooperation and understanding of purchasing, operations and engineering. This program is designed to be a hands-on, stimulating experience.

The program is highly interactive with much discussion and computer application practice sessions. During the course, attendees will have the opportunity to review an “Interactive computer decision making and optimization applications”. Laptop computers will be available to join in a practical session.
