Why is Planning and Scheduling vital to your success?

Effective planning and scheduling are more than just maintenance tasks—they’re key drivers of workforce efficiency, reliability, and organizational performance. Learn how structured work execution improves response time, minimizes downtime, and directly impacts the bottom line. Discover how integrating planning and scheduling into your reliability strategy can transform maintenance from reactive to proactive.

Myths and Pitfalls of Reliability

This discussion will provide a cautionary tale, and suggest some additional work that must be done to assure a reliable operation.

Reliability Engineering for Maintenance

How to Eat the Reliability Elephant…Three Ways to Fail (and One Way to Succeed) (Part 2)

Improving reliability can be daunting, especially if your plant is still in reactive maintenance mode. You need to improve everything from the way equipment is designed and purchased through to the way it is operated. Work practices have to be improved. The maintenance strategy has to change. And then you have to deal with the greatest barrier; culture change. So how do you do it? Where do you start? What works (and what doesn't)? Why do so many programs fail. In this webinar we will present a strategy that will work, and describe common alternative approaches that often fail.

This is the second half of a two-part webinar. While it is essential that you develop the reliability culture, most people also face a challenge trying to implement all of the elements, such as RCM, condition monitoring, planning and scheduling, etc. This video addresses how you can overcome those challenges.

A Strong Shop Floor: Successful Planning & Scheduling Secret Ingredient

An hour long presentation by Ken Arthur, Performance Consultant, GPAllied

Our production personnel can be the eyes and ears of the maintenance group if they are trained to know how equipment fails, what to look for, and how to report abnormalities. Operators are critical to helping an organization achieve early identification of problems, which then allows more time to plan, schedule, coordinate and execute work to prevent costly failures. Early identification of problems is one of the keys to planning & scheduling success, and a strong "Shop Floor" is oftentimes the missing ingredient.

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?

There’s no ‘I’ in planner: building a team approach to planning & scheduling

A one hour recorded webinar on demand by Shon Isenhour, ABB Reliability Services.

Planning & Scheduling can't be as effective when it's a one-person show. Instead, a team-oriented planning and scheduling unit, which includes members from both maintenance and operations, can be used more successfully to improve overall plant reliability. This webinar will teach you how to build a training program that focuses on retention and communication techniques, and certifies key positions within your planning & scheduling organization are being filled by individuals with the highest level of skill.

Participate to learn:

1) Learn how to build a team to improve plant reliability

2) Understand the crucial elements for training retention

3) Realize the importance of Business Process Re-engineering (BPR)
