Course Overview
Maintenance budgets are cut on water treatment operation and maintenance in good years and paid for in bad ones. This programme builds operation and maintenance from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. Each session closes with a decision the participant must justify about this area of engineering and maintenance work in their own setting. Mature organisations treat water treatment operation and maintenance as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. They acquire practical criteria for judging when this strand of engineering and maintenance work is working and when it is only appearing to. It suits anyone whose decisions touch operation and maintenance, in large organisations and small ones alike. A common pattern is strong design of water treatment operation and maintenance paired with weak follow-through. Participants leave with a plan for operation and maintenance sized to what their organisation can realistically absorb.
Expected Learning Outcomes
Test the organisation's response to operation and maintenance under conditions that are less than ideal.
Set acceptance criteria for water treatment operation and maintenance before work begins rather than after.
Structure records of operation and maintenance so that they answer the questions an auditor will actually ask.
Select the maintenance strategy for water treatment operation and maintenance — run to failure, preventive, or condition-based — on evidence.
Investigate repeat failures on operation and maintenance to root cause.
Measure maintenance performance on water treatment operation and maintenance with indicators that drive behaviour.
Who Should Attend

Reliability engineers analysing failures in operation and maintenance.
Maintenance managers and planners responsible for water treatment operation and maintenance.
Engineering supervisors allocating work on operation and maintenance.
Inspection and integrity engineers assessing water treatment operation and maintenance.
Department heads accountable for the results of operation and maintenance.

Water treatment operation and maintenance: history, documentation and competence
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1What condition data on water treatment operation and maintenance is telling you early
- Identify single points of dependency in water treatment operation and maintenance and reduce them.
- Collect evidence on the present handling of operation and maintenance before proposing changes.
- Define acceptance criteria for completed work on water treatment operation and maintenance.
- Confirm isolation and permit requirements before any work on operation and maintenance.
Session 2Getting other functions to support operation and maintenance
- Establish what evidence demonstrates water treatment operation and maintenance is under control.
- Verify contractor competence and method statements for operation and maintenance.
- Estimate the resource water treatment operation and maintenance requires to run as designed.
- Review whether operation and maintenance is aligned with the objectives of the asset base.
Operation and maintenance: failure modes, consequence and criticality
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1How operation and maintenance actually fails, and how much warning you get
- Identify the data already collected that bears on water treatment operation and maintenance.
- Prepare the summary of operation and maintenance that senior management will read.
- Arrange the handover of water treatment operation and maintenance so capability survives staff changes.
- Record the rationale for each significant choice made about operation and maintenance.
Session 2Planning work on operation and maintenance so it does not become reactive
- Set out how exceptions to water treatment operation and maintenance are requested and approved.
- Build the competence framework that supports operation and maintenance.
- Set maintenance indicators for water treatment operation and maintenance that reward planning rather than heroics.
- Draft the minimum viable maintenance procedure for operation and maintenance.
Operation and maintenance: inspection, testing and acceptance criteria
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Maintenance indicators for operation and maintenance that change behaviour
- Assign a criticality rating to water treatment operation and maintenance that drives work order priority.
- Close out actions on operation and maintenance rather than leaving them open indefinitely.
- Reduce the variation in how water treatment operation and maintenance is carried out between teams.
- Define the trigger that would require operation and maintenance to be redesigned.
Session 2Comparing water treatment operation and maintenance with recognised practice
- Write down the assumptions underpinning the approach to water treatment operation and maintenance.
- Prepare the response for the most likely failure in operation and maintenance.
- Choose the maintenance strategy for water treatment operation and maintenance based on failure pattern, not tradition.
- Compare the cost of operation and maintenance with the cost of its absence.
Operation and maintenance: choosing the right maintenance strategy
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Reviewing operation and maintenance when nothing has gone wrong
- Set the review interval for water treatment operation and maintenance and who attends.
- Agree the indicators that will show whether operation and maintenance is improving.
- List the credible failure modes of water treatment operation and maintenance and the consequence of each.
- Check that operation and maintenance still works when volumes rise unexpectedly.
Session 2Investigating the failure on operation and maintenance that keeps returning
- Remove steps in water treatment operation and maintenance that add effort without adding assurance.
- Investigate repeat failures on operation and maintenance to root cause, not to component.
- Establish who is informed, consulted and accountable in water treatment operation and maintenance.
- Decide what will be stopped to create capacity for operation and maintenance.
