Course Objectives

 

The objectives of the RCM Facilitation skills course are to consolidate RCM theory in the minds of the delegates and teach them how to successfully negotiate the implementation of RCM on site to a particular application.

 

What does the course cover?

  • The RCM feasibility statement
  • Establishing a platform for success
  • Process Mapping
  • Criticality – Establishing levels and applying
  • The use of generic failure modes
  • The RCM facilitation process
  • RCM Facilitation practice and feedback
  • Effective recording and processing of analysis
  • Maintenance cost feasibility
  • MTBF – gathering, estimating & working with data
  • The application of failure finding techniques
  • Auditing the outputs
  • Review and improvement of the outputs

 

 

Benefits for delegates

Delegates can expect a thorough understanding of RCM theory and a strong insight into how to successfully implement RCM at their place of work. They will understand the do’s and don’t’s of facilitation and how to keep an RCM study team focused on delivering the objectives.

 

Who should attend?

These courses are intended for delegates with some previous experience of RCM in practice. This may be through attendance of EMS Introduction to RCM course, or as a participant in an on-site study such as EMS RCM MasterClass programme. Successful RCM facilitators can be engineers, maintenance technicians, engineering managers, production managers, senior operators and trainers.

 

RCM, developed by two engineers; Stanley Nowlan and Howard Heap of United Airlines in 1980, radically changed the way aircraft were maintained and resulted in unprecedented reliability and aircraft safety levels. The technique is used today to make air travel the safest form of transport.

 

RCM is less than 30 years old making it significantly more modern than TPM, Total Quality or Lean Manufacturing. In fact, it works hand-in hand with these strategies providing an empowered workforce with the autonomous maintenance solutions they require and equipment maintainers with the most cost effective maintenance strategy possible.

 

  • Improved operating performance
  • High equipment reliability
  • Reduced maintenance costs
  • 60-80% of tasks can be done on the run
  • RCM is a Production-Maintenance Partnership
  • Team ownership underpins sustainable results
