Reliability Baselining Services
Compare the current state of your maintenance program and processes to available benchmarks and best practices. Predictive Service’s Baselining quantifies and validates performance gaps so improvement initiatives can be scoped and a business case developed.
Quantitative Exercises to Inform Your Strategy
A tremendous amount of effort has been dedicated, with good intention, to improving maintenance and reliability operations worldwide. The problem is that these efforts are often not scientifically driven—maintenance and reliability projects are chosen as a reaction to perceived urgency and pressure from members of an organization based on what they feel are the problems. Careful data-driven analysis may never enter the equation, and thus organizations struggle to realize substantive change.
Eliminate emotional-based initiatives once and for all, and accomplish the true quantifiable step-change you desire with the metrics you need from Predictive Service’s Maintenance and Reliability Baselining.
Predictive Service`s vast experience in continuous improvement follows a basic philosophy: No improvement effort shall be made without knowing exactly how the current system operates. We walk you through proven exercises that accurately quantify and validate your progress in each area of your maintenance and reliability program, measuring change along the journey to precisely compute savings. These exercises yield greater operational awareness, challenging what has traditionally been considered “normal” at a given site and replacing it with a justified understanding.
Predictive Service’s toolkit of Maintenance and Reliability Baselining activities provide a complete picture of current efforts, and can be focused on specific areas of need:PM optimization, workflow optimization (planning and scheduling), total productive maintenance, overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) optimization and cultural readiness.
Baselining exercises provide clear answers to the following difficult questions, helping to inform your strategy:
- What is your maintenance productivity today?
- What is constraining your maintenance process?
- How effective are your planning and scheduling efforts?
- What is the real cost of our un-optimized predictive maintenance (PM)?
- What is the average cycle time for each step in your workflow?
- What percentage of your reactive maintenance was preventable?
- What is the difference between PM compliance and PM effectiveness?
- What are your true downtime and OEE improvement opportunities?
- What is the value of one percentage of improvement?
