Course Overview
Maintenance budgets are cut on repair versus replace decisions in good years and paid for in bad ones. The programme takes participants through replace decisions end to end, from framing the problem to closing it out. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about the engineering and maintenance work capability under scrutiny. Ambition around repair versus replace decisions outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. The programme works equally well for those formalising the practice within engineering and maintenance work for the first time and those improving an existing approach. The most reliable predictor of sound replace decisions is whether anyone reviews it when nothing has gone wrong. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of repair versus replace decisions rather than to abstract argument. Participants finish with a short, specific brief on replace decisions ready to put in front of a decision maker.
