Maintenance Planning and Scheduling (MPS)
Dates: Sept.17-21, 2012
Planning and scheduling is one of the fastest and most effective investments an organization can make to improve productivity and availability.
The processes participants learn in this class will allow for planning and control of maintenance resources. Equipment reliability is increased. Costs and availability of maintenance stores are improved. Waiting times, unnecessary parts and inaccurate information are eliminated. Budgeting is easier and more accurate. Maintenance tasks are as much as 50% more efficient in terms of costs and time.
This five-day course teaches proven processes that are fundamental to effective planning and scheduling and successful CMMS/EAMS deployment. Participants engage in hands-on activities that build systems-independent process knowledge and skills they will be able to apply immediately.

Which approach is more reliable: a doctor that routinely uses a thermometer and prescribes aspirin to a patient with repeat fevers, or a doctor that uses a combination of diagnostic techniques to uncover the true cause of a patient’s fever?
Like a clinical diagnosis, effective root cause failure analysis requires correct application of the right tools to make accurate conclusions.
In this three-day class, you will practice selecting and applying the best of seven different root cause analysis (RCA) tools. During the class, you will begin developing an RCA process to fit your environment. You will leave equipped to look beyond failure symptoms and find ways to avoid future problems.
