“You have to maintain your investment
and focus on your long-term purpose,
but you must focus in on three key
things: being bolder, faster and smarter.” Steve Bolze
President and CEO
GE Power & Water
Limited R&M resources
“Fire-fighting” resulting in costly process downtime
Rapid technological growth with advanced diagnostic tools
Maintaining outdated aging equipment in service alongside newer more modern equipment
Incomplete / inaccurate asset and maintenance data
Identifying the “bad actors”
Inability to predict the types of failures that can occur
Lack of equipment-specific strategies
Collecting and presenting historical reliability and maintenance (RM) data that is accurate and accessible

Free from pretense or deceit
Easily detected or seen through
Readily understood
Characterized by visibility or accessibility of
information especially concerning business
practices

Asset Management Standardization ◦ ISO 55000 released 2014
◦ Asset policies, objectives, and strategies
Reliability Tools ◦ FMEA, FTA, RBD, etc.
◦ Data collection and analysis
Communication ◦ Visual Dashboards
Real-Time (or near Real-Time)
◦ Field instrumentation
◦ Building in diagnostic capabilities

ISO 55000 series of standards released in 2014
Benefits of an Asset Management System ◦ Improved regulatory compliance
◦ Sustainable culture change
◦ Capital project avoidance
◦ Reduced material cost
◦ Reduced labor costs
◦ Increased availability
◦ Reduced injuries
Allows for structured,
traceable continuous
improvement

Consider using streamlined reliability tools during all asset life cycle phases (and as early as possible) to optimize value!

Dashboards can transform data into visually rich charts and
graphs, providing insight to make quick and informed plant-wide
or fleet-wide decisions
Visibility at all Levels
◦ Executives
◦ Managers
◦ Operators
◦ Technicians
Access to data and easily communicated
Dashboards can help users to identify trends, sort out issues,
and measure the impact of their maintenance actions
Real-time analytics and reporting of plant
health can provide management with answers regarding assets
in complex systems

The goal of R&M transparency is to encourage
positive collaboration over an asset’s life cycle
– and to have the best possible roadmap.
Building trust, visibility and transparency in an
R&M organization must be done not only with
stakeholders vertically and horizontally but also
externally.

How is reliability and maintainability considered
early in the design phases within your
organization?
Do you think R&M transparency and visibility is
achievable in your organization? What are
some of the roadblocks?
Others?
