Course Overview
Maintenance budgets are cut on lightning protection maintenance in good years and paid for in bad ones. Progress on this part of engineering and maintenance work is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. The method assumes participants will be challenged on their handling of the engineering and maintenance work discipline and prepares them for it. It establishes a shared vocabulary for lightning protection maintenance so that teams can disagree productively about it. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what this part of engineering and maintenance work has actually achieved. It is designed for mixed groups, so that the engineering and maintenance work discipline is examined from more than one functional angle. Organisations that document lightning protection maintenance properly resolve disputes about it far more quickly. The final module sets out how progress on this part of engineering and maintenance work will be evidenced six months later.
Expected Learning Outcomes

Select indicators that show whether lightning protection maintenance is improving, and reject those that only look useful.
Specify acceptance criteria for work performed on lightning protection maintenance.
Document decisions about lightning protection maintenance in a form that remains useful after the people change.

- Verify six months later that changes to lightning protection maintenance have held.
- Distinguish symptoms from causes when lightning protection maintenance underperforms.
