2. World Class Maintenance
About WCM
It is the result of achieving benchmarks that others don’t.
It is about the way the entire organization uses all the means to protect its
ability to produce exceptional value for its customers.
It is a journey, not a destination — a process, not a product.

History:
Strategies inMaintenance:
TPM (Total Productive Maintenance):
A paradigm shift that focuses every one in the organisation towards
improved equipment efficiency.
It is not a short term fix.
5 pillars of TPM:
Increase Equipment Effectiveness:
Overall equipment effectiveness can be increased by targeting the major
losses like
• Planned shutdown losses: no production, breaks and/or shift changes;
planned maintenance
• Downtime losses: equipment failure or breakdowns, setups and
changeovers, tooling or part changes, startup and adjustment
• Performance efficiency losses: minor stops or delays, reduced speed or cycle
time
• Quality losses: scrap product/output, defects or rework, yield or process
transition losses
Training:
•Wiremanin his booktitled World-class maintenancemanagement referredto maintenanceplanning as thelast
frontier fororganizations.it is vital formaintenance management tobeintegratedwith corporatestrategy to
ensure equipment availability,quality products, on-timedeliveries, and competitivepricing.
1990
•Norman (1995)defined that an organizationaspiring to achieveworld-classmaintenanceorganizationwill perform
the following activities,focusing in teamwork,implementing CMMS, installing preventive maintenance (PM)
and predictivemaintenance(PdM) etc.
1995
•Labibdescribedthat implementationof computerizedmaintenance managementsystems (CMMS) will
be an effective tool to support decisionmakinginanorganization withthe objective ofachieving
world-class manufacturing status, where the systemwas usedtoanalyze the trends andperformance
levels, basedon whichtechniques were formulatedtoeliminate losses.
1998
•Smith (2000) has emphasizedthat following a reliabilitycenteredmaintenance canlead
theorganizationto achieve the world-class status in maintenance.2000
•Ingalls (2002) definedworld-class maintenance organizations as those that consistentlydemonstrate
industrybest practicesandproduce bottom-line result as well.2002
4. •A training needs analysis should be performed for the different people
working in the plant. •Each pillar, such as planned maintenance, should be
trained on maintenance-related courses, while a focused improvement group
should be well versed on different analytical tools and techniques.
•Likewise, operators should be trained with proper operation and safety on
their equipment. Education and training is a continuous process and should be
provided to all employees
Autonomous Maintenance:
•Operator involvement must be defined in ways that make sense in the work
culture.
•There are tasks that operators can do without using any tools: clean and
inspect equipment. The thing that they get the most return on investment in
the early stages of TPM is operators learning how to inspect their equipment
and pay attention to key things. It doesn’t take any tools or special skills; you
just have to know what to look for. Maintenance people can teach the
operators what to look and listen for.
Early Equipment Management:
•Early equipment management is a system for dealing with problems that
surface during test-running, commissioning, and start-up of new equipment.
•Basically production and maintenance engineering people must correct
problems caused by poor selection of materials at the design stage, errors
occurring during fabrication of the equipment, or installation errors. In an
ideal world, early equipment management should not be very complicated
(particularly if maintenance prevention design is properly applied at the
design stage).
Planned & Preventive Maintenance:
•Planned maintenance is planning and scheduling of maintenance activities,
as opposed to reacting to breakdowns and emergencies.
•A maintenance department that uses TPM effectively generally devotes less
than 10% of its labour hours to such unplanned activities. Without TPM, it is
not unusual for 80%-90% of the labour to be unplanned. Unplanned
maintenance is a strong indicator that prevention and improvement programs
are non-existent or ineffective. In addition, high percentages of unplanned
maintenance create problems.
Challenges faced:
A. Inhibiting Factors
• “Resisting to change” by some employee.
• Non resident consultant.
• Lower education level of Workers.
• Worker’s apprehension that manpower will be reduced.
• Production worker feels extra work load.
• Reluctant to change work practice.
5. • Limited knowledge of world class maintenance.
• Less time for world class maintenance activities.
B. Facilitating Factors
• Massive Mental Preparation prior to kick off.
• Management support and priority.
• Allocate significant Monetary, human resource and time.
• Create understanding about world class maintenance at grass root levels,
in advance.
• Involvement of senior management is must.
• Be Unwavering and Unflinching in support of world class maintenance
Reliability centred maintenance:
Reliability centred maintenance (RCM) is a corporate-level maintenance strategy
that is implemented to optimize the maintenance program of a company or
facility.
The final result of an RCM program is the implementation of a specific
maintenance strategy on each of the assets of the facility.
RCM offers five principal options among the risk management strategies:
Predictive maintenance tasks,
Preventive Restoration or Preventive Replacement maintenance tasks,
Detective maintenance tasks,
Run-to-Failure, and
One-time changes to the "system" (changes to hardware design, to operations,
or to other things)
Challenges faced in RCM:
To deal with each type of failure process in order to fulfill all the expectations of
the owners of the assets, the users of the assets and of society as a whole.
Perform maintenance in the most cost-effective and enduring fashion
Gain active support and co-operation of all the people involved.
6. Effective Asset Management:
Effective Asset Management is a systematic process of deploying, operating,
maintaining, upgrading, and disposing of assets cost-effectively. Managing assets
effectively and maximizing asset effectiveness is the key to:
Achieving production targets
Controlling costs
Meeting corporate and organizational goals
Types of asset management:
Financial asset management
Infrastructure asset management
Enterprise asset management
Public asset management
Steps in EAM:
Create Asset Inventory
Define asset management scope
Prepare your organisation for asset management
Develop the Transportation Asset Management Plan
Use Tools and Techniques to Implement Asset Management
Challenges in EAM:
A looming retiring workforce sometimes referred to as "the Great Crew
Change".
Corporate strategy and operational reality are out of alignment; in other
words, what the corporation plans to happen frequently isn't what really happens.
Organizational alignment issues: for example, maintenance management and
production management goals and targets may not be in sync.
Corporate or organizational backing for technology investments may be
lacking

Publishers. This chart was originally developed by Kyoumars Bahrami in "A Maintenance Improvement Program
Benchmarking" presented at MARCON (University of Tennessee College of Engineering). Permission to use this form was

8. MAINTENANCE INFORMATION SYSTEM:
A modern approach to the maintenance problem requires an efficient support
operated by the information system. There are a lot of articulated data to be
taken into consideration. A system that collects and organizes this information is
a prerequisite for any further elaboration. Nowadays, information technology
provides to maintenance engineers and practitioners an automatic software
platform called a “computerized maintenance management system,” with some
advantages but also some omissions. Often engineers and practitioners cannot
wait for the implementation of the computerized maintenance management
system; their policies require robust information since from the phase-in of the
equipment or plant. They may wish to get reliability results more quickly than in
the case of data coming from products operating under normal conditions. This
situation is usually faced using the experience of the maintenance personnel but
several lacks of robustness of data occur. Alternative, more accurate approaches
are accelerated testing and failure data prediction using an existing database.
Information systems (IS) have been known to aid organizational management in
providing quality services to their customers. However, if the IS used in
organizations are not
properly maintained, the quality of the services provided may be regarded as
poor. In
contemplating how IS quality connects with IS maintenance, Dekleva (1992)
observed that the
amount of time invested in IS emergency error rectifications and system
malfunctions is most
9. likely to interfere with the application of contemporary systems. Proponents of
IS management
have also stressed the importance of considering IS strategy as an
organizational outlook on
operation and management
IS maintenance can be conducted through systems control, reliability, user
participation,
and training (CRUT). These elements are selected because they are
hypothetically and
practically significant in maintaining the IS quality used in organizations.
