LRCM at Cerrejon
Without an adequate data sample there can be no reliability analysis (RA). Without analysis there can be no systematic, verifiable improvement in reliability nor in operational economy. A sample is a collection of life cycles. A beginning and ending event define a failure mode life cycle. Well known obstacles impede the reliability engineer in his…

How much detail?
How many failure modes should we consider? When should we group failure modes to avoid excessive detail. John Moubray pointed out that this is one of the most difficult questions in RCM. And it comes up repeatedly in day to day history capture (Living RCM) as well… How much detail? on Prezi

Components of continuous improvement
The diagram illustrates that effective physical asset management depends on several categories of information and knowledge. The diagram points out the interaction among the standard components of maintenance management. These include: Knowledge base development (FMECA/RCM, troubleshooting aids, failure code tables, and safety related knowledge/) Work order management Condition and operation monitoring Analytic procedures These four…

RA requires LRCM
The idea behind EXAKT is an appealing one. What can be more desirable than a systematic way to determine the “exact” relationship between condition monitoring data and impending failure? Although I wish that I could say that EXAKT auto-magically generates predictive models, I cannot. EXAKT translates the occurrences of PFs, FFs, and Ss of failure…
