A three day introductory course walks participants through the RCM2 process. RCM2 is a logical discipline for the development of effi cient scheduled (preventive) maintenance programs for complex assets, and the ongoing management of such programs to achieve the inherent safety and reliability capabilities of assets at a minimum cost. This course teaches you the fundamentals of modern physical asset performance management and highlights the business case for reliability. Today more than ever there is a burning need to increase asset performance while reducing costs. This is not a new concept as a typical asset undergoes between 30 and 50 reliability, maintenance and production optimization initiatives per year. A key to ensuring success is to shift from the conventional repair and modifi cation approaches to a focus on failure consequence mitigation – the core principle of RCM2. RCM2 is used to defi ne your maintenance strategy.
