An Intensive 5-day Training Course

Maintenance Audit and Site Inspection

Availability, Reliability and Compliance

INTRODUCTION TO THE COURSE

Asset & Maintenance Management can deliver a major contribution to the return on investment and output of a company by realising the best balance between realised performance (availability, reliability), risk (safety, image, compliance) and cost. We can only do that by making sure that our maintenance process is as effective and efficient as possible. But how to do that in daily hectic practice?

Therefore, it is essential that asset & maintenance managers strive toward the implementation of maintenance best practices. And have insight in the possible performance gaps and how risky they are.

Maintenance Audits & Site Inspections are key enablers to identify performance gaps and hidden improvement potential with which you are able to realize higher performance against lower cost. Acquiring strong audit and assessment techniques are essential for every successful asset & maintenance manager.

This highly-interactive Maintenance Audit and Site Inspection training course enables you to develop a powerful vision for asset & maintenance management improvement and improve your abilities to successfully promote and adapt changes in the work place. You will learn how to apply several audit & assessment techniques to assess the asset & maintenance management maturity and identify performance gaps. You will learn how to relate the assessment results to external benchmarks like PAS 55 and ISO 55000. You will understand how to transfer the assessment results into an action plan that improves the business continuity of the organization.
