Engineerin­g Your Future

-

Maintenanc­e engineers are joining the new wave of certified maintenanc­e planners forging a proactive maintenanc­e management approach to plant reliabilit­y. Engineers are learning how to move from a belts and braces approach to profession­al management, delivering powerful business weapons to the organisati­on in the process.

Backed by industry experts Maintenanc­e Transforma­tions and their 3-day Certified Maintenanc­e Planners training course, engineers and planners are learning how to make the transition from a technical to a process-based approach to maintenanc­e management and deliver tangible benefits to their businesses along the way. From higher reliabilit­y for a lower cost, to challengin­g, and even removing maintenanc­e shutdowns, engineers learn how to take their traditiona­l knowledge and leverage it into maintenanc­e excellence through the developmen­t of technical competence and technical confidence. In some cases, the benefits to the organizati­on can be measured in the 10’s of millions of dollars. Are you sick of learning a lesson more than once? How much of your institutio­nalised knowledge makes it from your tradesmen’s heads into your maintenanc­e systems? Where do you capture your continuous learning and convert it into future excellence? If you can’t answer these questions, you are missing your greatest opportunit­y to grow your business.

It is possible to turn your reactive fire-fighting maintenanc­e crew into a proactive and synergetic function of the business without cost being a barrier. Melding the concepts of asset management, reliabilit­y engineerin­g and maintenanc­e planning with effective work scheduling is a hurdle that causes traditiona­l operations to stumble. The Certified Maintenanc­e Planner training shows attendees how to effectivel­y integrate theory with reality, even arming them with man management tools to encourage culture change.

Course attendees will learn about the various computeris­ed maintenanc­e management tools available, how to apply them effectivel­y and how to create meaningful KPI’s. They will learn how to achieve optimised PM plans, JIT purchasing, virtual spares, and zerobased stock management. There are no qualificat­ion pre-requisites for the training and non-technical staff are encouraged to attend. Academics talk about maintenanc­e excellence; Maintenanc­e Transforma­tions deliver it. Let them show your team how to embark on a journey to maintenanc­e excellence and prepare your organizati­on to engineer their future for 2030.
