Course Overview

Maintenance budgets are cut on real-time condition sensing in good years and paid for in bad ones. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for this strand of engineering and maintenance work. Ambition around this area of engineering and maintenance work outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. Participants finish able to explain real-time condition sensing to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. Where this strand of engineering and maintenance work is measured, it improves; where it is only discussed, it drifts. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a maintenance procedure for this aspect of engineering and maintenance work as they go. The course covers real-time condition sensing at the level of detail needed to act, and stops there. Participants leave with a first-ninety-days plan for the practice within engineering and maintenance work rather than a set of notes.

Session 2What condition data on real-time condition sensing is telling you early

  • Verify six months later that changes to real-time condition sensing have held.
  • Investigate repeat failures on real-time condition sensing to root cause, not to component.
  • Prepare the response for the most likely failure in real-time condition sensing.

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Choosing a maintenance strategy for real-time condition sensing on evidence

  • Arrange the handover of real-time condition sensing so capability survives staff changes.

Session 2Investigating the failure on real-time condition sensing that keeps returning

  • Define acceptance criteria for completed work on real-time condition sensing.
  • Build the competence framework that supports real-time condition sensing.
  • Set maintenance indicators for real-time condition sensing that reward planning rather than heroics.

03

Real-time condition sensing: failure modes, consequence and criticality

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Who answers for real-time condition sensing, and to whom

  • Check that real-time condition sensing still works when volumes rise unexpectedly.
  • Identify the data already collected that bears on real-time condition sensing.
  • Benchmark the organisation's real-time condition sensing against comparable operations.
  • Rehearse the briefing on real-time condition sensing that would follow an incident.

Session 2How real-time condition sensing actually fails, and how much warning you get

  • Distinguish symptoms from causes when real-time condition sensing underperforms.
  • Set out the decisions in real-time condition sensing that require sign-off and by whom.
  • Set out how exceptions to real-time condition sensing are requested and approved.
  • Identify single points of dependency in real-time condition sensing and reduce them.
04

Real-time condition sensing: choosing the right maintenance strategy

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Building lasting competence in real-time condition sensing

  • Confirm that reporting on real-time condition sensing reaches the people who can act.
  • Identify where judgement in real-time condition sensing is legitimate and where it is not.
  • List the credible failure modes of real-time condition sensing and the consequence of each.

Session 2Planning work on real-time condition sensing so it does not become reactive

  • Establish who is informed, consulted and accountable in real-time condition sensing.
  • Agree the indicators that will show whether real-time condition sensing is improving.
  • Verify contractor competence and method statements for real-time condition sensing.
  • Choose the maintenance strategy for real-time condition sensing based on failure pattern, not tradition.
