The complete Strategic Maintenance Management Body of Knowledge is a six-book set, including Reliabilityweb.com's Strategic Maintenance Management Series. The Business of Maintenance Management: Far too much effort has been spent reacting to failures and maintaining our way to reliability. To truly maintain assets, we need stability. We need to stop creating defects that are unplannable. Business value can only be attained in a stable environment. The Business of Maintenance Management provides the strategies to stabilize organizations and deliver true business value. The Processes of Maintenance Management: Process-dependent organizations are sustainable. People dependency is a risk. The Processes of Maintenance Management starts with the base of preventative maintenance (PM) program development. PM programs are the foundation of maintenance best practices. The next section moves into the actual workflow and processes of maintenance. Both the PM programs and the process are managed with the CMMS, the final section of the book. The Enablers of Maintenance Management: There are various functions that enable maintenance. If they are not implemented and supported, optimized maintenance is unattainable. The most obvious enabler is MRO inventory and purchasing where both stock and critical spares must be optimized. The enabler of sustained quality, training, is covered, along with operator-driven reliability.The 10 Rights of Asset Management: This book covers all aspects of asset lifecycle management, thus ensuring true asset value attainment over lifecycle. A Practical Guide to Organizational Engineering: This book describes how to define a best-in-class organization and how to develop the necessary skills within your team. Discover how to develop meaningful meetings and KPIs, in support of the business process, and how to use these to engineer an efficient and effective organization that is sustainable and evolves with your needs and level of maturity.Failure Codes to Failure Modes: Without actionable data, there is no way to identify worst offenders in Pareto format. Failure Modes to Failure Codes explains exactly how to start capturing a true failure mode in support of reliability-centered maintenance (RCM). All that's required is the knowledge to configure the CMMS product.

Strategic Maintenance Planning deals with the concepts, principles and techniques of preventive maintenance, and shows how the complexity of maintenance strategic planning can be resolved by a systematic ‘Top-Down-Bottom-Up’ approach. It explains how to establish objectives for physical assets and maintenance resources, and how to formulate an appropriate life plan for plant. It then shows how to use the life plans to formulate a preventive maintenance schedule for the plant as a whole, along with a maintenance organization and a budget to ensure that maintenance work can be resourced. This is one of three stand-alone volumes designed to provide maintenance professionals in any sector with a better understanding of maintenance management, enabling the identification of problems and the delivery of effective solutions. * The first of three stand-alone companion books, focusing on the formulation of strategy and the planning aspects of maintenance management * Learn how to establish objectives - for physical assets and maintenance resources; Formulate a life plan for each unit and a preventive maintenance schedule for the plant as a whole; Design a maintenance organization and budget to ensure that the maintenance work can be resourced * With numerous review questions, exercises and case studies - selected to ensure coverage across a wide range of industries including processing, mining, food, power generation and transmission

The Strategic Maintenance Management Series was produced to support Reliabilityweb.com's maintenance management course and the related certification. The Business of Maintenance Management is new and original content for the primary modules of the course.

Uptime describes the combination of activities that deliver fewer breakdowns, improved productive capacity, lower costs, and better environmental performance. The bestselling second edition of Uptime has been used as a textbook on maintenance management in several postsecondary institutions and by many companies as the model framework for their mai

This book depicts the life and struggle of maintenance in seeking better ways and means to improve the reliability of the equipment and assets. The author shares his experience on how to achieve such feat. Transitioning from a reactive to a proactive maintenance stage is not an easy tasks but it is not also an impossible tasks. What the author believes is that the key to everything is educating the maintenance people on what maintenance is all about. Training is where we acquire knowledge to develop the skills required to do our job right. This book contains real life stories, struggles and actual experiences by the author in his career in maintenance and currently as a Reliability and Maintenance Consultant. Every industry must change their paradigm and realize that maintenance are not repair people. The meaning of the word maintain is simply to preserve our equipment and assets. And we can only preserve our assets if maintenance are equipped with the right knowledge on how to perform their jobs right the first time around. I have written this book in order to reach out to industries in search of discovering ways to improve not only their equipment and assets but as well as their maintenance human resources. Remember that maintenance is not a department, it is not a function or any organization but rather maintenance are humble and down to earth human being, hence let us provide them with the respect that they truly deserve because that is all they ask for. The message of this book is simple and straightforward. There is no better way to start the journey to reliability other than to go back to the basics and addressing these very small problems we have in our plant. Big problems, unplanned breakdowns and catastrophic failures are just an accumulation of small problems that has always been ignored in the first place. Maintenance is always a shared responsibility for operators and maintenance working together in complete harmony. It will be difficult for maintenance to transition from a reactive to a proactive mode if operators will not be involved in doing maintenance since maintenance is always a shared responsibility for operators and maintenance This book explains in detail on how to proceed with the 4 Phases of Planned Maintenance and how to integrate RCM into the TPM process. It also covers the importance of doing Autonomous Maintenance as well as Spare Parts Management which is believed to be the missing link theory on any reliability and maintenance strategy. Chapter 11 is a classic case study on what maintenance can achieve if there is a clear roadmap to follow. The last chapter states that maintenance are just human like you and me. What is important is not to blame them for every single failure that occur in the plant but for both operations and maintenance to work together on the problem. Many industries are looking for a structured and detailed approach on how they can improve their maintenance asset and resources. This book provide that level of information. Each chapter begins with a quote on wisdom of maintenance and at the end of each chapter will be a quiz for you to answer.
