Course Overview
Deferred maintenance and deferred decisions on critical spare parts management both accrue interest. The energy transition has not removed the need for rigour in parts management; it has added to it. The method assumes participants will be challenged on their handling of this aspect of energy and hydrocarbon operations and prepares them for it. It concentrates on the parts of critical spare parts management that determine outcomes and treats the rest proportionately. Moving the practice within energy and hydrocarbon operations from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. Participants gain a realistic view of what parts management costs and what it returns. Practitioner evidence points the same way: critical spare parts management improves fastest where responsibility for it is named and owned. Participants who influence parts management without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. Participants finish with a short, specific brief on this part of energy and hydrocarbon operations ready to put in front of a decision maker.
