Continuous Improvement with PM Optimization: Lessons Learned from Kewaunee Nuclear Power Plant
Feeding back the results of PM activities after Reliability Improvement program implementation is necessary to maintain a PM program in optimal condition. It is through the Living Program that PM tasks are continually updated to maintain the best balance between the cost of performing tasks and their effectiveness in preventing or reducing failures that impact equipment reliability and system availability.
Enhance Asset Performance with Effective Labels and Visuals
By: Chris Rutter
Signs and labels can be used to identify preventive maintenance (PM) points and provide basic cleaning, inspection, and lubrication instriations.
Improving Equipment Reliability and Plant Efficiency Through PM Optimization
Using a practical evaluation methodology to develop or optimize a maintenance program will improve equipment reliability and plant performance while realizing a quick return on project investment. This paper presents a review of how the Preventive Maintenance (PM) Optimization program, implemented at Kewaunee Nuclear Power Plant (KNPP), assisted in achieving optimum PM program performance for a fraction of the cost of the more traditional Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) projects.
Reliability Incident Management – Linking Incident Management with your Reliability Assurance Prog
Most organisations try to eliminate defects and investigate reliability incidents. Observations across many industries and companies lead the author to the conclusion, that this process, while very important, is one of the most fragmented and poorly executed of all.
