INTRODUCTION: 

Effectively planned Preventive & Predictive Maintenance which is integrated with the workflow is critical for a successful company and an integral part of maintenance management strategies such as RCM, RBM, TPM, and even 6-Sigma. This comprehensive 5-day Target Maintenance Engineering online training course on Implementing Effective Preventive & Predictive Maintenance Programmes has been designed to benefit both qualified new professionals as well as experienced professionals who may be involved in the rollout of a comprehensive Maintenance & Asset Management process or auditing an existing process. 

It covers all the steps required in developing a successful Preventive & Predictive Maintenance Program from failure behavior and finding the right preventive maintenance task until a well-managed preventive & predictive maintenance program, fully integrated with the workflow and the CMMS.

Leading industrial organizations are evolving away from reactive ("fix-it-when-it-breaks") management into preventive and predictive management ("anticipating, planning, and fix-it-before-it-breaks"). This evolution requires well-planned and executed actions on several fronts. 

This online training course will highlight: 

• Preventive & predictive maintenance strategies and their position within Asset Management
• Risk Based Maintenance
• Maintenance & reliability engineering best practices
• Best practices in planning and scheduling (workflow management)
• The application of CMMS
• Monitoring & managing performance with Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s)
• Continuous improvement aspects 

Course objectives: 

• Understand how world-class organizations solve common planning problems
• Improve productivity through use of better, more timely information
• Implement a practical and effective predictive maintenance effort
• Improve consistency and reliability of asset information
• Optimize preventive and predictive maintenance strategies
