Course Overview
Where maintenance history on industrial asset life extension is incomplete, every decision becomes a guess. Equipment involved in life extension rarely fails without warning; the warning is usually in data nobody reviewed. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of the engineering and maintenance work capability rather than to abstract argument. The content is relevant to those who own industrial asset life extension and to those who are held accountable for its results. Progress on this area of engineering and maintenance work is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better life extension is rarely technical. Content is organised around the decisions practitioners actually face in industrial asset life extension, not around theory headings. Participants develop a defensible line of reasoning for the choices they make about life extension. The final module sets out how progress on the wider engineering and maintenance work agenda will be evidenced six months later.
