This presentation covers the basics of failure modes. Failure mode(s) is a term often used in reliability but often it seems to mean different things to different people and often causes confusion. This presentation cuts through that confusion and provides clarity on what it means.
IMC-2015 RAP Talk - 19:35 by Greg Bentley, CEO- Bentley Systems
In today’s operations of industrial facilities and infrastructure assets, operations and maintenance professionals need effective strategies to benefit from an unprecedented volume of “big data”. It is streaming in from the “Internet of Things”, (sensors and meters on equipment, structures and assets), from UAVs able to perform continuous surveys and inspections, and from market sources. The challenge lies in transforming all that data into meaningful information and operational visibility, which can inform decision support and improve asset performance.
Improvement in asset reliability can drive huge financial benefits but the efforts to capture these benefits often fall short. This presentation suggests that long-term planning and coordination are critical success factors and offers an outline of the most important elements of a plan.
The path to Proactive Maintenance is a difficult one, and you may not recognize it, but you are already traveling this road! In truth, the well run maintenance organization will continue to employ some elements of reactive, preventive, and predictive strategies. None of these however, including predictive maintenance (PdM), improves machine reliability. Each one, to a greater or lesser extent, is simply reacting to a machine symptom, ie., vibration, temperature, noise, etc. Proactive maintenance looks beyond the symptom to the cause and through precision maintenance, and a focus on reliability can actually improve machine operation.
In this webinar, we will discuss the principles behind our actions that should dictate our strategies and our daily activities. Adhering to some very simple concepts will go a long way towards achieving consistent and positive results from our efforts.
In this webinar, Terrence O'Hanlon, CEO and Publisher, Reliabilityweb.com and Uptime Magazine and Ramesh Gulati, Author, Maintenance Reliability Best Practices discuss the importance of Reliability Engineering for Maintenance in your organization's overall asset reliability program.
Join Uptime Magazine Publisher and Reliabilityweb.com CEO Terrence O'Hanlon for a lively and interactive learning event to develop a new system for and a new way of thinking about asset reliability.
An hour long presentation by Terry Wireman, Senior VP, Strategic Development, Vesta Partners
First there was PAS-55. Now we have a Draft International Standard (DIS) focusing on asset management (proposed ISO-55000). Why would companies want to be certified under an asset management standard? How will this impact them financially? What will this mean for maintenance and reliability professionals? These and other issues will be explored during the webinar.

Fact: Manufacturing is applying technology and the processes are becoming more complicated. Customers are requiring higher quality and proof of sustainability by adopting global standards and requiring conformance to those standards. This has put a spot light on all Maintenance Activities: Operator PM, Maintenance PM, Cleaning and Inspection Standards, Operating and Set-up Standards, Precision Maintenance, Documentation (CMMS), Problem Solving Process. Maintenance Best Practices are a core foundation to deliver Reliable Capacity® that is achieved by having Reliable Processes, Equipment and People. Maintenance is an integral part of implementing and achieving "Zero Defects". Proper Maintenance will decrease variation in a process and product resulting in higher quality and lower cost production.
Leading companies recognize the importance of maximizing their return on investment in hard assets used to provide their products and services. A key component of any asset's life cycle is the operation and maintenance phase. Proper management of this life cycle phase can lead to top and bottom line improvements. This presentation will show how the Level 1 Maintenance Strategy Master Class can help any company develop a strategy that will enable them to achieve these operational and maintenance improvements.
An hour long presentation by Leslie McHattie, Senior Reliability Practitioner, Ivara Corporation
Why do some reliability implementations succeed and others fail? Leslie McHattie has seen it all --some programs are highly successful, most are "satisfactory" and some fail. Trying something new without a plan to manage and sustain the improvement is what we call a silver bullet approach and tends to be very short lived, eventually becoming the flavor of the month.
If the same tools result in variable outcomes, it is evident that the reason this happens does not reside in the tool itself, but rather in how it is managed and applied.

Taking a silver bullet approach to reliability improvement tends to become very short lived and eventually becomes the flavor of the month. Experience has shown that a strategic and comprehensive approach to physical asset management is the best way to improve equipment reliability. In this 4 part series, we will learn from Leslie McHattie, Senior Reliability Practitioner at Ivara, what it takes to launch, manage and sustain a successful reliability initiative and the top 10 lessons learned.
An hour long presentation by Shon Isenhour, CMRP, Director of Education, GPAllied
Root Cause Analysis (RCA) can be a very powerful tool for eliminating defects and increasing efficiency and profits. After witnessing hundreds of RCA efforts in every different type of organization and industry vertical, Shon has experienced the good, the bad, and the ugly. Of those, all of the failed efforts have common traits that are preventing the practitioners from getting maximum value from their RCA efforts. During this presentation, Shon will share with you his first-hand case studies of RCA implementations and tips on how to avoid the seven causes of ‘root cause failure'.
A forty-five minute long presentation by Jeff Shiver CMRP, CPMM – Managing Principal, People and Processes, Inc.
If you count up the number of protective devices in a typical manufacturing facility, it will surprise you to learn that you have lots and lots of them. Now what is scary is that for roughly 33% of these protective devices, you probably were not aware they even existed in the factory. Even scarier is the fact that only approximately 30-40% of all protective devices that we know about are maintained. That said, upwards of 20% are already in the failed state.
With your maintenance strategy, have you covered all the bases? Does your strategy include all of your protective devices and processes to either find them in the act of failing or even once failed to prevent a multiple failure? How do you treat standby or redundant equipment from a strategy perspective? Is the maintenance strategy the same for the duty and redundant equipment?
Join Jeff Shiver for an insightful 45 minute webinar as he uncovers the concepts from the RCM2 world around hidden failures, protective devices, and the associated maintenance strategies necessary for preventing or reducing those failure consequences.
An hour long presentation by Reid Jenner, Managing Director, The Asset Performance Group (APG)
In this webinar, we will outline best practices for determining the root cause and mitigating consequences arising from an asset failure or out-of-tolerance condition within the framework of the PAS 55 specification. This will include discussion on the process steps, critical questions, key involvement and recommended discipline to efficiently and effectively identify the root cause of a defect to correct or improve the condition of failing and failed assets.

Implementing the findings and sustaining the reliability improvements recommended from an RCM analysis is challenging due to many factors including company culture, employee buy-in, skill level and training as well as the shear amount of data to monitor and manage. Many RCM projects result in overly complex processes and poorly integrated systems resulting in increased likelihood of errors as well as inefficiencies. Some projects result in thick binders sitting on shelves for long periods following the analyses or stagnant databases full of reliability program content that are never implemented.
