Preventive and Predictive Maintenance Management

Many plants either over-maintain equipment on fixed calendars or wait for breakdowns, and both waste money and availability. This programme gives maintenance and reliability professionals a practical method to choose the right strategy for each asset, build effective preventive and predictive programmes, use condition monitoring data well and measure the results.

Preventive maintenance programmes often grow by habit. Tasks are copied from manuals or older plants, intervals are never reviewed, and technicians spend time on work that does not prevent failures while critical assets fail between inspections. Condition monitoring equipment is bought, but data is not analysed, alarms are ignored and findings do not become work orders. Without clear criticality, failure mode analysis and performance measures, maintenance cost rises while reliability stays flat.

This programme builds a maintenance strategy from the asset up. It starts with maintenance objectives, asset criticality and failure behaviour, moves to designing preventive maintenance based on failure modes, then to predictive maintenance and condition monitoring technologies, planning and executing the work through the maintenance management system, and finally to measuring performance and improving the programme.

Built on recognised practice. The programme references widely used standards and methods, including the ISO 55000 series on asset management, ISO 17359 on condition monitoring and diagnostics of machines, ISO 14224 on reliability and maintenance data, IEC 60812 on failure modes and effects analysis, SAE JA1011 criteria for reliability-centred maintenance processes, EN 13306 maintenance terminology and EN 15341 maintenance key performance indicators. They are applied to practical examples rather than studied in the abstract.

Decisions this programme improves. Which assets deserve preventive, predictive or run-to-failure strategies; which tasks to add, change or remove; how to set inspection intervals using the P-F interval; which condition monitoring technologies justify their cost; how to prioritise and schedule work; and which indicators show whether the maintenance programme is working.

How it is delivered. Twenty hours across five sessions, built around one running case: a pumping and compression station with frequent unplanned failures and an overloaded preventive maintenance schedule. Participants rank asset criticality, perform a failure mode analysis, rationalise preventive tasks, design a condition monitoring plan and build a KPI dashboard.

In-house option. For organisations, the programme can be tailored to your own asset register, maintenance management system data and failure history, and can include a review of an actual preventive maintenance programme.
