Optimized Planning and Scheduling

Originally presented at Reliability 2.0

by Dave Koelzer – VP, Process Improvement, Dimension Technology Solutions, Inc.

For asset-intensive operations, maximizing the use of maintenance dollars is critical. Put simply, planned and scheduled maintenance costs less than unscheduled and reactive maintenance. How much does it cost your organization for unplanned reactive work? How much for emergency work? We’ll explore how a small reduction in unplanned and emergency work can lead to significant cost reductions and improvement in real-world resource availability and productivity.

Considerations for Planning and Scheduling

Introduction

Planning and scheduling tasks tend to be based upon fixed times in both the internal and contracted maintenance arena. This can lead to inefficient or ineffective use of resources and the decline of the maintenance department towards reactive maintenance, further reducing the efficiency of the program. There are a number of ways to not only ensure proper completion of maintenance tasks, both scheduled and reactive, but also to improve wrench time.

Know who has a lot of irons in the fire? Industrial production managers. They are responsible for mistakes, accidents, injuries, theft, security and asset management. This is the person who will have answers to questions like, “Where’s the pallet jack?”

The industrial production manager is in charge of day-to-day team performance, making sure it all works together as quickly and cost-effectively as possible, all while turning out a quality product.

Measuring the Central Hub – Planning and Scheduling Metrics

An hour long presentation by Jeff Shiver CMRP, CPMM - Managing Principal

We constantly hear about metrics like OEE, PM Compliance, and Schedule Compliance that help measure productivity, availability, and the maintenance work management process as examples. In the end, these metrics are used to drive behaviors within the organization. I'm reminded of a statement that a Plant Manager in a large food and beverage manufacturer once told me. He said, "Jeff, We measure what we treasure!" If so, what is it in the Maintenance organization that we treasure?
