Course Overview
Reactive work on rotating equipment maintenance costs several times what the same job costs when planned. Maintenance budgets are cut on the engineering and maintenance work capability 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. Mature organisations treat rotating equipment maintenance as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. A common pattern is strong design of this aspect of engineering and maintenance work paired with weak follow-through. It is designed for mixed groups, so that the engineering and maintenance work discipline is examined from more than one functional angle. The method assumes participants will be challenged on their handling of rotating equipment maintenance and prepares them for it. The programme builds the judgement to know which parts of this strand of engineering and maintenance work to standardise and which to leave flexible. The closing exercise tests whether the participant's plan for the engineering and maintenance work capability survives a hostile question.

Rotating equipment maintenance: turnarounds, contractors and scope control
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1How rotating equipment maintenance actually fails, and how much warning you get
- Set maintenance indicators for rotating equipment maintenance that reward planning rather than heroics.
- Assess energy loss attributable to the condition of rotating equipment maintenance.
- Compare the cost of rotating equipment maintenance with the cost of its absence.
- Build the competence framework that supports rotating equipment maintenance.
Session 2Moving rotating equipment maintenance from approval to execution
- Collect evidence on the present handling of rotating equipment maintenance before proposing changes.
- Establish the boundary of rotating equipment maintenance and record what sits outside it.
- Agree what will be standardised in rotating equipment maintenance and what will not.
- Confirm that reporting on rotating equipment maintenance reaches the people who can act.
Rotating equipment maintenance: choosing the right maintenance strategy
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Inspection intervals for rotating equipment maintenance that are not just habit
- Confirm lubrication, alignment and balance standards applied to rotating equipment maintenance.
- Establish who is informed, consulted and accountable in rotating equipment maintenance.
- Arrange the handover of rotating equipment maintenance so capability survives staff changes.
- Investigate repeat failures on rotating equipment maintenance to root cause, not to component.
Session 2Escalation and decision rights in rotating equipment maintenance
- Confirm isolation and permit requirements before any work on rotating equipment maintenance.
- Identify single points of dependency in rotating equipment maintenance and reduce them.
- Check that rotating equipment maintenance still works when volumes rise unexpectedly.
- Choose the maintenance strategy for rotating equipment maintenance based on failure pattern, not tradition.
Rotating equipment maintenance: history, documentation and competence
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Choosing a maintenance strategy for rotating equipment maintenance on evidence
- Assign a criticality rating to rotating equipment maintenance that drives work order priority.
- Benchmark the organisation's rotating equipment maintenance against comparable operations.
- Define acceptance criteria for completed work on rotating equipment maintenance.
- Rank the weaknesses in rotating equipment maintenance by consequence rather than by ease of fixing.
Session 2Investigating the failure on rotating equipment maintenance that keeps returning
- Build the life cycle cost model supporting repair or replace on rotating equipment maintenance.
- Record who is competent to work on rotating equipment maintenance and when requalification is due.
- Prepare the response for the most likely failure in rotating equipment maintenance.
- Calculate the ratio of planned to reactive work on rotating equipment maintenance.
Rotating equipment maintenance: safe isolation and permit control
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Isolating rotating equipment maintenance safely before work begins
- Review the last twelve months of maintenance history for rotating equipment maintenance.
- Estimate the resource rotating equipment maintenance requires to run as designed.
- Identify critical spares for rotating equipment maintenance and confirm lead times against consequence.
- List the credible failure modes of rotating equipment maintenance and the consequence of each.
Session 2Making rotating equipment maintenance work when resources are constrained
- Specify condition monitoring on rotating equipment maintenance that gives usable warning time.
- Define the trigger that would require rotating equipment maintenance to be redesigned.
- Remove steps in rotating equipment maintenance that add effort without adding assurance.
- Estimate the true cost of one hour of unplanned downtime on rotating equipment maintenance.
