This intensive 3-day masterclass equips maintenance professionals with the tools, techniques, and best practices needed to optimize maintenance planning, scheduling, and cost management. Attendees will learn how to protect and enhance the value of plant machinery, integrate reliability-centered maintenance, and leverage Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS) and ERP software for efficient operations. Practical strategies are provided to reduce downtime, eliminate maintenance risks, and increase overall productivity and profitability.
WHY YOU CAN’T MISS THIS EVENT?
-
Maintenance departments are under increasing pressure in competitive industries (Manufacturing, Mining, Power & Utilities, Oil & Gas) to maximize asset uptime while reducing breakdowns and costs.
-
Many maintenance teams struggle with limited resources, with work orders piling up and not being completed efficiently.
-
According to SMRP, average “wrench time” for maintenance personnel is only 35%—meaning only ~3½ hours per day are spent on actual maintenance work, while the rest is consumed by non-productive activities like gathering parts, traveling, meetings, and breaks.
-
Lack of proper planning and scheduling leads to uncoordinated, costly, and ineffective maintenance, causing delays and operational frustrations.
-
Poor maintenance execution increases costs, reduces plant integrity, and strains relationships with Operations teams, who may become reluctant to release equipment for maintenance.
-
Amidst an aging workforce and global skill shortages, effective planning and scheduling are critical to maintaining high operational uptime with fewer resources.
-
Participants gain practical knowledge on best practices in maintenance planning and scheduling, ready to implement immediately upon returning to work.
