Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM) is a maintenance strategy that is a key component of a world-class asset management program. Organizations implement RCM to increase equipment reliability and safety while reducing maintenance costs by performing planned and scheduled maintenance tasks based on equipment criteria. While implementing RCM may sound simple in theory, in reality, an RCM program is only as good as data used to drive the program. Furthermore, the quality of your data is highly dependent on the computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) and underlying work order management processes. This session will describe the necessary foundational elements of an RCM program and strategies for getting a program started. Participants will hear from the presenters on how a project to replace an outdated CMMS led to the revamping of an organizations’ work order management processes to pave the way for RCM implementation.
