Step out of firefighting mode and into a proactive reliability world before your equipment “licks” you.
In this engaging keynote, reliability trainer Nancy Regan from RCM Training Online uses stories, humor, and a live audience experiment to demystify Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) and show you how to get the reliability you actually need from your assets while winning the support of leadership, operators, and maintainers.
You’ll learn how to:
- Shift from a reactive, failure-driven culture to a proactive reliability philosophy
- Write clear equipment functions that define the level of reliability you need
- Identify failure modes at the right level of detail so they lead to effective actions
- Use the P–F curve correctly to set condition-based maintenance (CBM) task intervals
- Understand why CBM intervals are based on the P–F interval and not MTBF, useful life, or criticality
- Run facilitated, cross‑functional RCM analyses that capture your experts’ knowledge
- Gain buy‑in from executives, middle management, operators, and maintainers by “speaking their language”
- Turn comfort and complacency into action so your reliability program actually moves forward
