Well-connected management teams effectively drive their Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM) programs by utilizing key performance indicators (KPIs) and aligning them with broader business-level metrics. These teams understand that the success of a CBM program depends not only on technical execution but also on how well the performance data is communicated to stakeholders.
In this webinar, we will delve into the essential inputs required to develop meaningful and actionable metrics that can accurately reflect the health and efficiency of your assets. We will also explore strategies for delivering these insights to stakeholders across your enterprise, ensuring that they support decision-making at all levels. By the end of the session, you will have a clear roadmap for integrating these metrics into your CBM program for measurable improvements in performance and reliability.

Since the late 90s, maintenance team leaders have struggled to make their teams more efficient and âWorld Class.â Root Cause Analysis is essential to understand when and why these inefficiencies began. Leaders need to change their mindset about where to find future maintenance associates, focusing on the MT (Maintenance Team) Factors:
MT Factor #1: The Generational Shift
Shift in mindset about future careers.Decline in blue-collar workers with hands-on skills.Generational shift from outdoor activities to indoor, tech-focused activities.MT Factor #2: The Demographic Shift
Overall focus on careers in IT, law, medicine, and engineering.Discontinuation of high school shop classes has created a skills gap.Geographic location affects the availability of maintenance-oriented individuals.Family unit changes and educational system failures have impacted skill development.Speaker:

Maintaining assets in a cost-effective manner is essential to a company's profitability. To effectively and efficiently execute an Asset Management (Maintenance & Reliability - M&R) Strategy, an organization should have an effective Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS). The CMMS is the system of record that provides well organized and accurate data for continuous improvement. Effective utilization and execution of the three main elements of an Asset Management Strategy (Work Management, Asset Strategies, and Defect Elimination) requires accurate data and history in the CMMS.
To do this, an organization must make the investment of effort to collect necessary data to create and possess an accurate Equipment Register. This investment provides an organization with agreed-to and standardized definitions, designs, processes, and guidelines for building the sub-elements of the Equipment Register which include a Master Equipment List (MEL), Equipment or Asset Hierarchy, and Master Data. Master Data is the foundation of Asset Management. It is a starting point for continuous improvement.
This presentation will highlight the reasons for effective data collection and the do's and don't's associated with capturing good data in your CMMS in to allow for effective Asset Management.

Most CMMS systems by nature are neither intuitive nor simple to understand. Here is where the adoption of a âbest practiceâ CMMS Implementation methodology can be worth its weight in gold by ensuring the fundamental 3 Câs (consensus with clarity and certainty) are instrumental in the decisions you are making. This is definitely a great place to say the old adage, âyou donât know what you donât knowâ. This is also a great place to be sure you are aligned with your organizations adopted maintenance Best Practices.

Discussing the real return on investment of properly aligning rotating equipment. As there is a renewed focus on reliability and vibration monitoring, I focus on a root cause. An often-quoted comment is â...why align a machine when it is fitted with a flexible coupling designed to accommodate misalignment?â I will talk about why this one often overlooked step in machinery maintenance is so important. The real payoff is often larger than you can imagine. Todays Laser alignment systems offer precision that is easy to learn and use giving the younger workforce the ability to replace old methods that are lost with an aging workforce.

Reliability and Operations teams have always struggled with a repeatable process for defining criticality for maintenance spare parts. It is often too easy to make everything critical and often entails a binary method of "yes/no" or "true/false." Most criticality review processes are static (one and done) and are not revisited nor adjusted with changing business climates. Untrusted, outdated criticality reviews, if any, lead to treating everything as critical which leads to surplus which ultimately becomes obsolete... aka wasted capital.

In my experience, there are three major influences on culture:
Individual team members â Do they work together? Do they feel their voice is heard? Do they enjoy going to work every day?Supervision / management â Do they have an open door policy? Do they listen to employees? Are they willing to take acceptable risks with new ideas?Corporate â Are they driven by only the bottom line? Do they provide too much oversight?Easy efforts to improve the culture positively include ensuring that corporate, plant, department goals are clear, posted and understood, that communication occurs frequently at all levels, and that appropriate personnel are involved at the right level for decision making.

Ever asked yourself why you keep replacing the same bearings and seals? Often teams get stuck causing the symptom and fail to stop and find the root cause of the problem.
50% of rotating machine damage is directly related to imbalance, most teams just replace bearings and seals because alignment/balance takes too much time. It's important to fix the root cause of the issue instead of continually fixing the symptom.
In this webinar you'll leave with a better understanding of:
How to identify imbalance using vibration analysisHow to precision balance your machinesHow this will greatly improve the reliability/safety/energy efficiency of your machinesHow balancing machines is the first step on your path to improved reliabilitySpeaker:
