Course Overview

Reactive work on legacy control system upgrade costs several times what the same job costs when planned. Equipment involved in system upgrade rarely fails without warning; the warning is usually in data nobody reviewed. The course gives participants a defensible structure for this aspect of engineering and maintenance work and the judgement to adapt it. The most reliable predictor of sound legacy control system upgrade is whether anyone reviews it when nothing has gone wrong. It suits anyone whose decisions touch this part of engineering and maintenance work, in large organisations and small ones alike. Buying a tool rarely fixes system upgrade; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a maintenance procedure for legacy control system upgrade as they go. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what system upgrade has actually achieved. The final session converts the week's work on this aspect of engineering and maintenance work into commitments with owners and dates.

03

System upgrade: history, documentation and competence

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1What condition data on system upgrade is telling you early

  • Close out actions on legacy control system upgrade rather than leaving them open indefinitely.
  • Check that records of system upgrade answer the questions likely to be asked.
