Session 1: Managing Maintenance & Reliability Performance through Metrics & KPI's
July 7, 11:00AM - 11:45AM EDT
Organizations must measure and analyze its performance to make the improvements necessary for staying in business in a competitive market place. One way is by understanding equipment performance through the use of key maintenance metrics. They are essential as they can mean the difference between achieving the overall business goals and having unexpected breakdowns which cause another production delay.
In this webinar, you will gain insights on:
- 1. Why you should measure
- 2. What to measure
- 3. Understanding lagging & leading indicators
- 4. Best practice industry targets

Session 3: Defect Elimination & Bad Actor Management
August 6, 11:00AM - 11:45AM EDT
Do you experience any of the following with your facility?
1. Breakdowns?
2. Overtime Heroes?
3. Responding to failures?
If so, chances are that you belong to a firefighting organization. You should be avoiding failures, having no surprises, and becoming a maintaining, promoting and innovating organization. We know from experience that 80 - 90% of failures that occur in a plant are due to bad actors/repetitive failures. This is where defect elimination can help.
In this webinar, you will gain insights on:
- 1. Structure and analyze failure data
- 2. Effective use of different RCA techniques
- 3. Defect elimination process & programs

August 18, 1:00PM - 1:45PM EDT
Choosing the right technologies and processes to maximize asset efficiency requires knowledge and experience. We will discuss how to better identify and pursue the highest value strategies for your unique situation.
In this webinar, you will gain insights on:
- 1. Understanding the different maintenance types/strategies
- 2. Maintenance strategy development
- 3. Determining the frequency of a PdM Task
- 4. Maximizing the P-F interval through condition-based maintenance

Session 6: Why is Item/Spares Classification Important and How Does it Benefit Organizations?
September 16, 11:00AM - 11:30AM EDT
CMMS users add new item descriptions differently. Gradually over time, items with the same part numbers are added multiple times, resulting in duplicate and interchangeable parts in material master. We have seen such numbers varying from 8-15% depending on the industry and maturity of an organization.
In this webinar, you will gain insights on:
- 1. Understanding the importance of using attribute templates to reduce duplicates and improve interchangeability
- 2. Importance of sequencing attributes for easy search-ability in CMMS
