Course Overview
Reactive work on centrifugal pump maintenance costs several times what the same job costs when planned. Where maintenance history on the wider engineering and maintenance work agenda is incomplete, every decision becomes a guess. It treats the engineering and maintenance work capability as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in centrifugal pump maintenance rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. The difficulty is not agreeing that the engineering and maintenance work discipline matters — it is deciding what to stop doing to make room for it. Comparative studies of this aspect of engineering and maintenance work across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for centrifugal pump maintenance. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting the wider engineering and maintenance work agenda, ready to be adapted internally. It closes by agreeing the smallest change to this part of engineering and maintenance work that would make a visible difference.
