  White Paper - Turning Enterprise Asset Management into Real Earnings Per Share

Over the past decade, many corporate performance improvement programs have been initiated: Business processes re-engineered, enterprise resource planning systems implemented, shared services organizations formed, etc. During that time, it was not uncommon for Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) programs (both formal and informal programs) to remain in the hands of a “technical” executive, such as the Senior Vice President of Operations. However, with “The Street” continuing to demand ever improving performance and the marketplace as competitive as ever, CEOs are putting continuous pressure on the CFO/CAOs (Chief Financial Officer and Chief Administrative Officer) to find new ways to cut costs and improve bottom line performance. We all know that cutting costs alone will not allow for sustainable performance improvement. However, with a well constructed EAM program, there is a path to improved earnings. Not by using cost cutting as the primary driver to achieve, but by increasing asset efficiency which leads to reduced cost.

Reliability Tip:

Maintenance Task – Failure Mode

When identifying maintenance tasks, don’t forget the most basic element. Every maintenance task must address a failure mode. If you cannot identify the failure mode, perhaps you do not need the maintenance task. This applies equally to condition monitoring (PdM) tasks or scheduled preventive tasks. All must address a failure mode.

Emerson Helps Companies Reach Top Quartile Performance

Top Quartile Reliability A Key Driver

Reliability, Top quartile performers in operational reliability see maintenance costs that are 3.5x less than those operating in the lowest quartile. Equipment failure, the most frequent cause of unplanned downtime, can result in excessive maintenance, repair, and equipment replacement. Top Quartile companies enjoy more than 13% greater production availability of their assets over fourth quartile performers. Additionally, outdated maintenance procedures and technology may expose staff to greater safety risk.
