RELIABILITY CENTERED MAINTENANCE

The goal is to reduce life-cycle costs while continuing to allow the system to function as intended with required reliability and availability

Monte Carlo Simulation performs risk analysis by generating possible results by substituting a range of values—a probability distribution—for any factor that has inherent uncertainty.

SUMMARY

14

RCM approach offers a high potential for smart O&M

Life cycle analysis of the system - input to verify reliability and optimize maintainance

Uncertainty and risk assessment is the basic step in RCM strategies selection

RCM plays significant role in conflict between product costs saving and maintaining reliability of the product in the field
