White Paper - RCM & DMAIC Improvement Process
Inherent problems in plant and equipment performance can result in frustration for many engineering managers, especially when it is causing the business significant costs to production. One tool for managers is to build a strong business case for a capital replacement or an improvement project, to eradicate the problem and move on to the next issue. This may be the right thing to do if every other option has been exhausted, but a costly option if the problem has not been fully understood.
The following is an example where the solution being sought was a business case to replace a problematic finishing process which had significant reliability issues, including a perceived over-complicated design and also some parts sourcing issues.

Reliability Tip:
What Is the Expected Life of This Overhaul
Make sure your maintenance crew knows how long the equipment they are working on is expected to operate before the next major work. Most organizations set and track goals around Mean Time Between Failure, but frequently the repair crew cannot answer the question: “What is the expected life of this overhaul?” In the power industry, steam turbine overhaul management and crews have a defined goal for the next overhaul, whether it is 7-10 years or more. All decisions are made based upon that goal; the crew fully understands the goal. For “regular” work, we often forget to ensure that everyone understands the goal. Ensure your crews understand the expected life of the asset they are working on, and they may be able to help you achieve that goal.
