CM/PM Ratio
RM Registered Member
Registered Member I think your plant needs to get a detailed RCM done by some experts in the field. After following OEM recommendations, you are obviously having more failures, indicated by your high CM figures. You need to go back to the drawing board and look at this from a RCM point of view. Another route of action might be to identify all the bad actors and then carry our Root Cause analysis to identify and fix problems. 70% Corrective Maintenance is too high. Finally, if PTT GC would be able to spend a... [ more ]
Registered Member Josh, I know that our culture still in reactive mode while basic PM (OEM recommend) are in place. I do not count manhour spent during shutdown/outage period, only count during routinve maintenance and not sure how propoer frequency to calculate this KPI. [ more ]
Registered Member Josh, I know that my plant still in reactive culture and try to improve while all basic PM that OEM recommend are in place. Our plant running 16 yrs ago but why manhour spend only corrective work. In practicle, I'm not sure how frequency calcuate CM/PM M-H ratio? I do that a month and data sources from routine maintenance only not count work during shutdown or outage. I don't know how to start and motivate in my team??? [ more ]

Preventive vs Repair Maintenance
RM Registered Member
Registered Member Anton, you should be tracking this by time (hours). If you have a slow worker on a PM, eventually he will also do a corrective maintenance and it will eventually even out. The idea is that we need to know how many hours we spend on each type of maintenance, not just the number of occurrences so that we know where our labor is being applied the most and get to an 80% planned (minimum) threshold. Once we are devoting 20% or lees of our time to unscheduled and breakdown maintenance, we will... [ more ]
Registered Member I think there are some things you can do in this case. For example, of improving the quality of the planning and scheduling documents you already have. Where this document hopes would be a living document that will be reviewed every year. Starting from an existing job plan, if it is appropriate and optimal, or even overlapping. Do maintenace task was appropriate and so forth. Due to the continuous improvement that is the one way to maximize the planning and scheduling is good, so that the... [ more ]
Registered Member For simplicity, you can divide the types of maintenance works into preventive maintenance (which proactive) versus corrective maintenance (which is reactive). Preventive is planned eg maintenance plan in OEM manuals. Corrective is not planned, including breakdown and run to failure on purpose. Now, you can quantify these preventive versus corrective by 3 measures which are: 1) by number of jobs 2) by labour or manhours spent on each job 3) by total cost of doing the job. Pls note nos. 2...

Unplanned downtime
RM Registered Member
Registered Member When i received the AMP newsletter in my in-box the subject heading was "[AMP] How Do You Accurately Track Down Time?" and featured your discussion here. I was going to reply, use our trademarked " True Downtime Cost " (TDC), see http://downtimecentral.com/tdc.shtml . Imagine my surprise when I got here and found out the "how to" was not your question, but in was what is considered world class percentage?

Maintenance Backlog Crew Weeks
RM Registered Member
Registered Member The formula for calculating backlog is as follows Backlog = identified work in hours ÷ craft availability per week (in hrs ) For example, a backlog for mechanical discipline contains 2,000 hrs of work. The current workforce has ten technicians who each work 40 hours per week. Then, Backlog = 2,000 ÷ 400 Backlog = 5 Weeks An optimum backlog is considered to be between two and four weeks of work [ more ]

Emergent Work KPI
RM Registered Member
Registered Member The backlog status can be broken down into unplanned, planned, awaiting materials, awaiting external service, scheduled or in progress until completed. [ more ]
Registered Member Well, first I thought the work type eg emergent work as you call it cannot change with time. It seems the better work type is breakdown as you said so. Do you mean the repair for the breakdown will be started in 30 days or the time to start and complete the repair is 30 days? Anyway, within the 30 days, the emergent job can be considered a backlog after it has been planned and scheduled to be ready for execution. [ more ]

Quotes relating to Maintenance KPIs
RM Registered Member
Registered Member KPI's? Back up to basic philosophy for projects. Consider the "Service Triangle". I first saw in OMNI magazine in 1992 going to field service assignment. (as newly minted 'visiting expert' with full factory support. Hey--we all started somewhere) Draw a triangle and label the sides. * Cheap * Fast * Good You may choose 2. Your customer WANTS all three ... but that's not the way the world works. At your service -- Arthur [ more ]

Registered Member Your typical maintenance KPIs would be categorised into maintenance efficiency measures and maintenance effectiveness measures. As an example: Maintenance efficiency - labour productivity, MTTR, spares turnover, labour availability, etc. i.e. how well the maintenance organisation is performing . Maintenance effectiveness - machine reliability, OEE,MTBF, equipment availability, etc. i.e. how well maintenance procedures/processes are performing . The essence of KPIs is that they indicate to...

what is a good KPI for effectiveness of CMMS/EAM?
RM Registered Member
Registered Member I see this is a very old thread. no worries. The question was ..identify good KPIs for use of CMMS/EAM.

Registered Member Several years ago I set up a series of indicators which feed a KPI called "Work Order Content Evaluation". This was origionally developed to aid in insuring that failure codes were being added to all demand maintenace work orders (Emergancy -ER & Corrective - CM). It checked for four criteria. These were Labor Hours, Failure Class Code, System Code, and Asset# &/or Location. Our implementation of MAXIMO 6.0 processes 30,000 plus work orders per month and we initially attempted to...

Registered Member I want to add one thing here these are only tools. If a tools not used properly It will not function or functions improperly. If a tool is not properly prepaired it will not work properly. If the person using the tool doesnt know how why etc it wont work properly. If the tool is not cared for and checked and repaired constantly it will not work properly. Summing this up short, expect less from it then you put in, it has its own degree of quality. Also be warned! If it was a perfect 100%... [ more ]

KPI's for Predictive Maintenance / Vibration
RM Registered Member
Registered Member Harold Consider adding a. % of correct predictions to sample size b. % of incorrect predictions to sample size c. % of corrections completed by due date [ more ]
Registered Member Harold, I would recommend indicating the Vibration status in colors with Green, Amber and Red for OK, Alert and Emergency, since using Visual traffic light indicators are more eye catching and visible. Visibility improvement is part of Reliability improvement. I would also recommend to include list of corrective work orders raised by Predictive team during the month and their status in the KPI report. [ more ]
