Asset Integrity

We specialize in helping companies define their maintenance framework and principles, define process for maintenance management and how to perform continuous improvement.

Optimizing stock requirements by having a clear approach to plant specific spares, common spares, rotable parts, consumables and critical spares can yield significant savings and decreased capital binding. 

We're experts in defining the principles of technical structure & technical parts governance, a key foundation for how to set up your ERP system to make it scalable, end-user efficient and standardized across multiple plants.

Complex technical plants will often require a range of Technical Subject Matter Experts to ensure the preventative maintenance setup is robust, and that any support required from technicians to troubleshoot corrective work can be provided. We have a lot of experience with how to build lean value adding frameworks.

We can professionalize and standardize the process of managing obsolescence, more specifically:
 

Technical obsolescence: Technical obsolescence may occur when a new product or technology supersedes the old one. 

Functional obsolescence: Products items may become functionally obsolete if customer requirements or supporting processes lead to new technologies or features. 

We help in defining the most efficient governance approach to both the Management Strategy and the Technical Strategy for an optimum maintenance program lifecycle. Utilizing different aspects of RCM, CBM, intrusive and non-intrusive approaches following a range of principles derived from:

​

IEC 60300/11 (Dependability Management - Reliability Centred Maintenance)

ISO 17359 (Condition monitoring and diagnostics of machines – General guidelines)

ISO 13306 (Maintenance – Maintenance terminology)

High quality data is required if there is an ambition of using a more advanced approach to CBM and RCM, wherefore having a robust governance around reporting requirements through the Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) of the company is important. We have extensive knowledge into what principles can be applied.

If operating high-value asset heavy plants, it can be beneficial to perform a classification assessment of the functional aspects of the plant to determine criticalities across 4 aspects: Safety, Environment, Production and Cost and combine with statistical knowledge of the probability of failure. Such an approach can significantly support the company materials strategy.

The condition and availability of plant equipment are key factors in delivering safe, reliable, and efficient operations. By understanding the cause of equipment failure, corrective actions can be determined and implemented to prevent the recurrence of the failure and improve the reliability of systems and equipment

We can professionalize and standardize the process of how to manage Technical Bulletins, both those internally issued and those externally received from OEMs or regulatory bodies of industry standard.
