Reliability and Maintenance: Better Together or Better Off Apart?

IMC Presentation 42:48 Minutes

by Sarah Beddor, ARMS Reliability

There’s no question that reliability and maintenance are separate functions. The question is whether organizations are separating them too much. In the last ten years or more, there has been a movement to separate reliability from maintenance to the point that the functions have different reporting lines, and reliability engineers become completely disconnected from execution.

This presentation will explore:

  • How to create alignment between reliability and maintenance
  • How teams should be structured How to maximize performance and improve service levels
  • What the best strategy or process is to support this
