RELIABILITY ENGINEERING

A good reliability engineering capability supports an organization’s ability to reduce the number of equipment breakdowns and downtime, and reduce the overall maintenance spend when in general reactive maintenance is more expensive than preventative maintenance. By incorporating sound reliability engineering practices, companies can proactively identify and address potential equipment failures, optimize equipment-specific asset management strategies, and enhance overall facility operational performance. This approach leads to improved equipment reliability, reduced operational risks, and ultimately increased profitability.

GOS consulting encounters extensive business cases and workshops to implement Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) strategies for maintenance organizations to optimize operational efficiency and asset reliability. By implementing RCM, companies proactively identify and prioritize maintenance tasks based on criticality and risk assessments and balance the level of proactive action taken to optimize to the appropriate spend. This approach helps organizations enhance equipment reliability, extend asset lifespan, improve safety, and reduce maintenance costs in the long run. With RCM, companies can shift from reactive maintenance practices to a proactive and data-driven maintenance strategy, ultimately leading to increased operational performance and profitability.
