Workshop #15: Your PM Needs A Tuneup
It can be hard to develop a comprehensive approach to Preventive Maintenance (PM). You may have tried different documentation methods. Your management and execution may vary between areas. Different groups and software sometimes manage portions of your existing PM systems. This workshop will walk you through the steps needed to do PM the right way from who to what KPIs you need to measure the success.

Building your PM Tasks Doesn’t Have to be a Time and Resource Killer
Developing the right list of Preventive Maintenance tasks for your equipment is often time and resource-consuming. To do it right many plants and mills would need to dedicate a Subject Matter Expert at the corporate level, full-time, for over a year to form teams and create all these tasks. They must rely on everyone’s experience and may have a hard time reaching consensus But is there another way that would allow plants to generate a list of PMs, starting with only a database of assets?

The Real Reasons Your Reliability Improvements May Fail – It’s All About Support
The two most common reasons that companies fail to sustain R&M practices and achieve improved business results are the following: 1. Lack of a strong and fully engaged Leadership Team that understands and takes responsibility for the business objectives, basic process workflows, and the organizational roles in support of the process. 2. Leadership and supervision’s lack of understanding and ability to manage people – with both sincere recognition and performance management, when appropriate. It is said “Leadership is about taking responsibility, not making excuses”, so the question is “How do you engage plant leadership in your improvements?”

Workshop #25: Why Root Cause Analysis Just Isn’t Enough To Really Solve Your Problems
You may have been through Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA) training at some point in your career. If not, you probably are aware of the basic concept and that there are many Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA) classes and books available. But the inherent problem of RCFA is that its scope is narrow – analysis of the problem without really getting to a practical and implementable solution.
