Preventive maintenance is one of the first steps most companies start with to develop their reliability program(s). Most companies start out with equipment manufacturers recommendations and schedules. This is a good starting point for most, however most companies do not apply continuous improvements to their PM program. PM’s should be optimized to identify the most potential causes to identify failures and eliminate equipment downtime and unnecessary cost. Optimization should be applied to things like equipment environment, hours run, manufacturing environment, existing failure data once equipment begins to build history. GCC Solutions helps to identify ways to optimize your PM program and increase Equipment Reliability and lower your overall maintenance cost. PM Optimization is tied closely to our SRCM process.
