Course Overview
Maintenance budgets are cut on precision shaft alignment in good years and paid for in bad ones. The difficulty is not agreeing that this strand of engineering and maintenance work matters — it is deciding what to stop doing to make room for it. The outcome is a practitioner who can hold a position on this aspect of engineering and maintenance work and revise it on evidence. The most reliable predictor of sound precision shaft alignment is whether anyone reviews it when nothing has gone wrong. Participants test their assumptions about the practice within engineering and maintenance work against scenarios designed to break weak ones. It is designed for mixed groups, so that this aspect of engineering and maintenance work is examined from more than one functional angle. It treats precision shaft alignment as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. It ends with a prioritised list of changes to the practice within engineering and maintenance work that the participant is prepared to defend internally.

Precision shaft alignment: safe isolation and permit control
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1How precision shaft alignment actually fails, and how much warning you get
- Verify contractor competence and method statements for precision shaft alignment.
- Identify where judgement in precision shaft alignment is legitimate and where it is not.
- Assign responsibility for keeping documentation of precision shaft alignment current.
- Distinguish symptoms from causes when precision shaft alignment underperforms.
Session 2Keeping precision shaft alignment alive after the initial push
- Confirm that reporting on precision shaft alignment reaches the people who can act.
- Investigate repeat failures on precision shaft alignment to root cause, not to component.
- Assign a criticality rating to precision shaft alignment that drives work order priority.

Precision shaft alignment: inspection, testing and acceptance criteria
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Choosing a maintenance strategy for precision shaft alignment on evidence
- Agree the smallest change to precision shaft alignment that would be visibly useful.
- Define the trigger that would require precision shaft alignment to be redesigned.
- Remove steps in precision shaft alignment that add effort without adding assurance.
- Define acceptance criteria for precision shaft alignment in advance.
Session 2Isolating precision shaft alignment safely before work begins
- Identify single points of dependency in precision shaft alignment and reduce them.

- Set maintenance indicators for precision shaft alignment that reward planning rather than heroics.
- Write down the assumptions underpinning the approach to precision shaft alignment.
- List the credible failure modes of precision shaft alignment and the consequence of each.
Session 2Planning work on precision shaft alignment so it does not become reactive

- Establish the boundary of precision shaft alignment and record what sits outside it.
- Rehearse the briefing on precision shaft alignment that would follow an incident.
- Confirm isolation and permit requirements before any work on precision shaft alignment.
