Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) for Drainage Networks Operation & Maintenance

June 18—June 22 \ 2023 : Dubai

 

Introduction

      RCM is one of the most powerful Maintenance and Reliability improvement processes out there. The name Reliability Centered Maintenance lends itself to a process that’s used to develop an optimized proactive maintenance program – and it is. But RCM can be used to formulate scores of solutions that reach far beyond maintenance.

When organizations take full advantage of RCM’s powerful principles, non-maintenance solutions can be identified including (but certainly not limited to) things like: Equipment redesigns, new or modifications to operating procedures, updates or additions to technical publications, new or modifications to training programs, supply changes, troubleshooting procedures, and so much more.

 

Objectives 

At the end of this course the participants will be able to:

Þ Basics of Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM)

Þ The importance of Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM)

Þ Steps of a successful RCM process

Þ Learn how to use RCM to improve Asset and Equipment Reliability

Þ Cause and Effect Analysis

Þ Principles of FMEA and Failure Modes, Effects, & Criticality Analysis (FMECA)

Þ Condition Based Maintenance (CBM)

Þ Preventive Maintenance

Þ Maintenance optimization

Þ RCM Decision Diagram

Þ Failure Management Strategies

Þ Reliability-Centered and Other Maintenance Management Best Practices

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

Þ This course is designed for acquisition professionals, Logistic engineers and managers, system engineers, analysts, plant engineers, facilities engineers, maintenance and operation professionals, capital project managers, asset owners and employees with little or no Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) experience. The course is also useful for those who have experience with RCM but have never had any formal training on the standard.

 

Course Methodology

The course uses self-assessments and a wide mix of business cases that promote healthy discussions around the importance of managing multiple tasks, deadlines and priorities. Participants will benefit from role plays covering workplace challenges related to handling tasks, deadlines and priorities. They will learn how to deal with conflicts that may arise as a result. Interactive team exercises are also used with each team presenting their findings and comments.  

Each module covers different aspects of using Game-Based Learning and Gamification in education. Coursework will incorporate your existing knowledge and experience and provide helpful learning environment with a good mix of theoretical and practical knowledge. On all outlines will apply Skills for Game-Based Learning and Gamification and practiced in hands-on, collaborative way within an international group setting.

 

This interactive training course includes the following training methodologies as a percentage of the total tuition hours:

  • 30% Lectures, Concepts, Role Play
  • 30% Workshops & Work Presentations, Techniques
  • 20% Based on Case Studies & Practical Exercises
  • 20% Videos, Software & General Discussions
