Most organisations that carry out equipment maintenance have a planning and scheduling process in place, ranging from a basic systems to CMMS.
Experience tells us that, in practice, there are several barriers that inhibit the success of implementation of Root Cause Analysis (RCA) practices.
A growing number of root cause analysis processes are being supported by software. We need to be careful not to oversell the benefits of software in effective RCA.
There is a school of thought, particularly among more highly qualified engineering personnel, that problem solving and root cause analysis is best performed by “experts” in their fields.
We assessed compliance with the Asset Management Accountability Framework, a framework aligned to ISO 55001 that is catered towards Victorians.
Let's discuss some of the practical issues surrounding root cause analysis implementation within organisations, and how to obtain success from these processes.
In February 2016, the Department of Treasury and Finance introduced the AMAF, which is aligned to ISO 55001 and catered towards the Victorian public sector.
Let's consider how to obtain value in maintenance and reliability improvement projects, and approaches that we can take to estimate value from the improvement.
The AMAF details mandatory asset management requirements and guidance for government organisations, and how to support service delivery objectives.
In this article, we continue our exploration by considering how developments such as big data and predictive analytics are contributing to reliability improvement.
The NAMAF provides a methodology for assessing the maturity of a local government asset management and financial planning processes.
Let's discuss some of the key tools and techniques that can be used to contribute to sound equipment reliability, and where these may be applicable.
Being at the tail end of the operational chain, supply can often bear the brunt of poor decisions made by asset designers, or during operations and maintenance.

In this short video we give 4 practical tips that can help you to improve the productivity of your maintenance function.
This video introduces the PF Interval: one of the core principles that underpins reliability centred maintenance and preventive maintenance program development.
Most organisations have some sort of investigation process, ranging from a basic incident report form through to a mature root cause analysis (RCA) process.
Let's compare reliability centered maintenance (RCM) and preventive maintenance optimisation (PMO), and determine which approach is best for you.
The Perth Assetivity Team enjoyed a fun day out at the WA Archery Centre last Friday in Whiteman Park.
In preventive maintenance optimisation, the key objective is to review the current PM program, starting by assembling all of the tasks that it consists of.
Reliability centered maintenance (RCM) is a powerful methodology which can drive significant improvements in equipment reliability and plant performance.
This video provides an introduction to best practice frameworks for planning, scheduling and delivering safe, efficient and effective maintenance.
Following an ISO 55001 gap assessment, Hydro Tasmania wished to increase their competency of ISO 55000 and asset management among key stakeholders.
If you can't measure something, then you can't improve it. If that is the case, then how can we measure the productivity of our maintenance managers?
