Course Description
This course provides the fundamentals of Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM). The course is not process specific but gives the participant fundamental tools and knowledge required to participate in any RCM analysis process. The course will use life-cycle cost analysis and an understanding of equipment failure characteristics to achieve an optimal maintenance program that meets specified safety, environmental, and economic goals. The course focuses on preserving equipment functions by identifying appropriate preventive maintenance (PM) tasks, predictive maintenance (PdM) tasks, failure finding tasks, and other actions that protect against failure or mitigate the consequences of failure.
