SUMMARY:Advanced Maintenance Planning and Scheduling
DESCRIPTION:Why Choose this Training Course\nThis maintenance planning course provides a deep dive into maintenance planning and scheduling\, highlighting its crucial role in productivity improvement and asset management control. It begins by dissecting the Six Planning Principles\, emphasizing the distinct separation of ‘planning’ (what to do) from ‘doing’ (how to do it)\, proactive work provision\, and maximizing ‘Wrench Time’ as the primary performance metric. \nParticipants will then master the Six Scheduling Principles\, focusing on accurate job plans\, strict schedule adherence\, and leveraging Schedule Compliance as the key performance indicator. The curriculum establishes foundational maintenance systems\, covering Composing the Asset Register (equipment hierarchy\, parts lists) and Designing the Work Order System (priority system\, flowcharts\, managing subcontractors and permits). \nCore modules cover detailed Basic Planning workflows (scoping\, estimating job hours and costs) and Basic Scheduling techniques (forecasting\, daily coordination with operations\, staging materials). The course further explores system excellence through effective Work Order Processing\, Planning Details (prioritization\, backlog\, and turnaround planning)\, and the selection\, implementation\, and utilization of a Computerised Maintenance Management System (CMMS). Finally\, participants will learn to generate Effective Reports for Benchmarking and Control and review the Qualifications essential for high-performing Planners and Schedulers. \nWe are also a proud member of the Energy Institute of UK. \nWho Should Attend\n\nAll individuals currently employed in Planning & Scheduling\nRelevant persons in Materials Management\nAll maintenance supervisors\n\nKey Learning Objectives\n\nCreate awareness of the importance of Planning & Scheduling and its contribution to productivity in maintenance.\nTo teach proven principles of Planning & Scheduling to participants so that they can perform their jobs more efficiently\nTo improve maintenance effectiveness through better organisation and execution of the work\nTo allow participants to make better use of the existing Computerised Maintenance Software System (SAP R3)\n\nEnquiry Form\n\n\n                 \n \n                        SalutationMr.Ms.Miss.Mrs.Mdm.Dr.Prof.Capt.-Name*\n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    First\n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    Last\n                                                \n                            \n                        Phone*Email*\n                            \n                        Company*Current Location*    \n                    \n                        \n                                        AfghanistanAlbaniaAlgeriaAmerican SamoaAndorraAngolaAnguillaAntarcticaAntigua and BarbudaArgentinaArmeniaArubaAustraliaAustriaAzerbaijanBahamasBahrainBangladeshBarbadosBelarusBelgiumBelizeBeninBermudaBhutanBoliviaBonaire\, Sint Eustatius and SabaBosnia and HerzegovinaBotswanaBouvet IslandBrazilBritish Indian Ocean TerritoryBrunei DarussalamBulgariaBurkina FasoBurundiCambodiaCameroonCanadaCape VerdeCayman IslandsCentral African RepublicChadChileChinaChristmas IslandCocos IslandsColombiaComorosCongoCongo\, Democratic Republic of theCook IslandsCosta RicaCroatiaCubaCuraçaoCyprusCzechiaCôte d'IvoireDenmarkDjiboutiDominicaDominican RepublicEcuadorEgyptEl SalvadorEquatorial GuineaEritreaEstoniaEswatiniEthiopiaFalkland IslandsFaroe IslandsFijiFinlandFranceFrench GuianaFrench PolynesiaFrench Southern TerritoriesGabonGambiaGeorgiaGermanyGhanaGibraltarGreeceGreenlandGrenadaGuadeloupeGuamGuatemalaGuernseyGuineaGuinea-BissauGuyanaHaitiHeard Island and McDonald IslandsHoly SeeHondurasHong KongHungaryIcelandIndiaIndonesiaIranIraqIrelandIsle of ManIsraelItalyJamaicaJapanJerseyJordanKazakhstanKenyaKiribatiKorea\, Democratic People's Republic ofKorea\, Republic ofKuwaitKyrgyzstanLao People's Democratic RepublicLatviaLebanonLesothoLiberiaLibyaLiechtensteinLithuaniaLuxembourgMacaoMadagascarMalawiMalaysiaMaldivesMaliMaltaMarshall IslandsMartiniqueMauritaniaMauritiusMayotteMexicoMicronesiaMoldovaMonacoMongoliaMontenegroMontserratMoroccoMozambiqueMyanmarNamibiaNauruNepalNetherlandsNew CaledoniaNew ZealandNicaraguaNigerNigeriaNiueNorfolk IslandNorth MacedoniaNorthern Mariana IslandsNorwayOmanPakistanPalauPalestine\, State ofPanamaPapua New GuineaParaguayPeruPhilippinesPitcairnPolandPortugalPuerto RicoQatarRomaniaRussian FederationRwandaRéunionSaint BarthélemySaint Helena\, Ascension and Tristan da CunhaSaint Kitts and NevisSaint LuciaSaint MartinSaint Pierre and MiquelonSaint Vincent and the GrenadinesSamoaSan MarinoSao Tome and PrincipeSaudi ArabiaSenegalSerbiaSeychellesSierra LeoneSingaporeSint MaartenSlovakiaSloveniaSolomon IslandsSomaliaSouth AfricaSouth Georgia and the South Sandwich IslandsSouth SudanSpainSri LankaSudanSurinameSvalbard and Jan MayenSwedenSwitzerlandSyria Arab RepublicTaiwanTajikistanTanzania\, the United Republic ofThailandTimor-LesteTogoTokelauTongaTrinidad and TobagoTunisiaTurkmenistanTurks and Caicos IslandsTuvaluTürkiyeUS Minor Outlying IslandsUgandaUkraineUnited Arab EmiratesUnited KingdomUnited StatesUruguayUzbekistanVanuatuVenezuelaViet NamVirgin Islands\, BritishVirgin Islands\, U.S.Wallis and FutunaWestern SaharaYemenZambiaZimbabweÅland Islands\n                                        Country\n                                    \n                    \n                How many people are you looking at?1 - 2 Standard Rates3 - 5 Group Discount>10 In-House Training\, Huge Savings!Undecided\, need more informationThis is just an approximate number.

SUMMARY:Project Scheduling and Cost Control
DESCRIPTION:Why Choose this Training Course\nThis is a 3-day project scheduling training. \nDevelop effective measures for scheduling and controlling projects as you put the tools of project management to work. In this project scheduling training course\, you’ll focus on managing the constraints you face in any project: limits on time\, human resources\, materials\, budget and specifications. Discover proven ways to work within your identified constraints\, without letting predefined limits curtail creativity or innovation. \nFrom the opening morning\, you’ll get hands-on experience\, practicing your skills in building project requirements and the work breakdown structure. You’ll learn a sound\, logical framework for scheduling and controlling project activities. And you’ll master techniques for estimating\, forecasting\, budgeting\, monitoring\, controlling\, analyzing\, and reporting costs and interpreting the meaning of earned-value data. \nIndividual and small-group exercises feature scenarios that help hone these skills\, and a comprehensive toolkit provides practical field guidance.
