Course Overview

Maintenance budgets are cut on lubricating oil selection in good years and paid for in bad ones. The course sets out a working method for the engineering and maintenance work discipline that participants can apply the week they return. Comparative studies of this aspect of engineering and maintenance work across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. They acquire practical criteria for judging when lubricating oil selection is working and when it is only appearing to. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a maintenance procedure for the wider engineering and maintenance work agenda as they go. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for this area of engineering and maintenance work, not for observers of it. Progress on lubricating oil selection is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. It closes by agreeing the smallest change to this part of engineering and maintenance work that would make a visible difference.

Expected Learning Outcomes

01

Structure records of lubricating oil selection so that they answer the questions an auditor will actually ask.

02

Select the maintenance strategy for lubricating oil selection — run to failure, preventive, or condition-based — on evidence.

03

Build the internal capability for lubricating oil selection rather than depending on external support indefinitely.

04

Apply safe isolation, permit and lockout controls to work on lubricating oil selection.

05

Test the organisation's response to lubricating oil selection under conditions that are less than ideal.

06

Measure maintenance performance on lubricating oil selection with indicators that drive behaviour.

07

Determine the failure modes of lubricating oil selection and the consequence of each.

Lubricating oil selection: inspection, testing and acceptance criteria

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1The cost of lubricating oil selection and how to present it

  • Investigate repeat failures on lubricating oil selection to root cause, not to component.
  • Record what was learned when lubricating oil selection did not go as planned.
  • Decide what will be stopped to create capacity for lubricating oil selection.
  • Define acceptance criteria for lubricating oil selection in advance.

Session 2Isolating lubricating oil selection safely before work begins

  • Agree the indicators that will show whether lubricating oil selection is improving.
  • Confirm that reporting on lubricating oil selection reaches the people who can act.
  • Prepare the summary of lubricating oil selection that senior management will read.
  • Establish the boundary of lubricating oil selection and record what sits outside it.
02

Lubricating oil selection: choosing the right maintenance strategy

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1What condition data on lubricating oil selection is telling you early

  • Benchmark the organisation's lubricating oil selection against comparable operations.
  • Map the handovers in lubricating oil selection between functions and secure them.
  • Build the competence framework that supports lubricating oil selection.
  • Establish what evidence demonstrates lubricating oil selection is under control.

Session 2Building the method for lubricating oil selection step by step

  • Close out actions on lubricating oil selection rather than leaving them open indefinitely.
  • Anticipate the objections lubricating oil selection will raise and prepare the answers.
  • Verify contractor competence and method statements for lubricating oil selection.
  • Draft the minimum viable maintenance procedure for lubricating oil selection.
03

Lubricating oil selection: safe isolation and permit control

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1How lubricating oil selection actually fails, and how much warning you get

  • Assign a criticality rating to lubricating oil selection that drives work order priority.
  • Confirm isolation and permit requirements before any work on lubricating oil selection.
  • Review whether lubricating oil selection is aligned with the objectives of the asset base.
  • Choose the maintenance strategy for lubricating oil selection based on failure pattern, not tradition.

Session 2Choosing a maintenance strategy for lubricating oil selection on evidence

  • Distinguish symptoms from causes when lubricating oil selection underperforms.
  • List the credible failure modes of lubricating oil selection and the consequence of each.
  • Record the rationale for each significant choice made about lubricating oil selection.
  • Set out how exceptions to lubricating oil selection are requested and approved.
04

Lubricating oil selection: history, documentation and competence

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Making lubricating oil selection work when resources are constrained

  • Agree the smallest change to lubricating oil selection that would be visibly useful.
  • Set maintenance indicators for lubricating oil selection that reward planning rather than heroics.
  • Set out the decisions in lubricating oil selection that require sign-off and by whom.
  • Compare the cost of lubricating oil selection with the cost of its absence.

Session 2Planning work on lubricating oil selection so it does not become reactive

  • Establish who is informed, consulted and accountable in lubricating oil selection.
  • Reduce the variation in how lubricating oil selection is carried out between teams.
  • Collect evidence on the present handling of lubricating oil selection before proposing changes.
  • Define acceptance criteria for completed work on lubricating oil selection.
