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.
