Course Overview

The reliability of self-diagnosing maintenance systems is decided at design and procurement, long before the first breakdown. Where maintenance history on this part of engineering and maintenance work is incomplete, every decision becomes a guess. Participants develop a defensible line of reasoning for the choices they make about this area of engineering and maintenance work. The programme uses small-group work so that each participant's treatment of self-diagnosing maintenance systems is examined, not just described. It treats the engineering and maintenance work capability as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. Teams frequently over-invest in documenting this strand of engineering and maintenance work and under-invest in testing it. Applied research in engineering and maintenance work consistently shows that early structure around self-diagnosing maintenance systems reduces downstream rework. The level assumes working familiarity with the asset base but no prior formal training in this part of engineering and maintenance work. The final module sets out how progress on the wider engineering and maintenance work agenda will be evidenced six months later.

Expected Learning Outcomes

Maintain drawings and documentation for self-diagnosing maintenance systems after modification.

02

Set acceptance criteria for self-diagnosing maintenance systems before work begins rather than after.

03

Plan and schedule work on self-diagnosing maintenance systems to reduce unplanned downtime.

04

Build the inspection and test plan covering self-diagnosing maintenance systems.

05

Design a training and briefing approach that sustains competence in self-diagnosing maintenance systems.

06

Plan the turnaround scope covering self-diagnosing maintenance systems realistically.

07

Plan the handover of self-diagnosing maintenance systems so that capability is not lost when key staff move on.

04

Self-diagnosing maintenance systems: choosing the right maintenance strategy

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Keeping self-diagnosing maintenance systems alive after the initial push

  • Assign a criticality rating to self-diagnosing maintenance systems that drives work order priority.
  • Confirm lubrication, alignment and balance standards applied to self-diagnosing maintenance systems.
  • Define the turnaround scope for self-diagnosing maintenance systems and freeze it before mobilisation.
  • Write down the assumptions underpinning the approach to self-diagnosing maintenance systems.

Session 2Planning work on self-diagnosing maintenance systems so it does not become reactive

  • Choose the maintenance strategy for self-diagnosing maintenance systems based on failure pattern, not tradition.
  • Confirm that contractual obligations around self-diagnosing maintenance systems are understood.
  • Investigate repeat failures on self-diagnosing maintenance systems to root cause, not to component.
  • Review whether self-diagnosing maintenance systems is aligned with the objectives of the asset base.
