SUMMARY:Life Cycle Asset And Maintenance Management
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nThe total cost of ownership of an asset is often far greater than the initial capital outlay cost and can vary significantly between the different alternative solutions to an operational need. Consideration of the costs over the whole life of an asset provides a sound basis for decision-making. With this information\, it is possible to:- \n\nAssess future resource requirements\nUncover potential costs of potential acquisitions\nDecide between sources of supply\nAccount for resources used now or in the past\nImprove system design\nOptimise operational and maintenance support\, through more detailed understanding of input requirements over the expected life cycle\nAssess when assets reach the end of their economic life and if renewal is required\n\nThe life cycle costing process can be simple as a table of expected annual costs or it can be a complex model that allows for the creation of scenarios based on assumptions about future cost drivers. The scope and complexity of the life cycle cost analysis should generally reflect the complexity of the assets under investigation\, the ability to predict future costs and the significance of the future costs to the decision being made by the organisation. \nA life cycle cost analysis involves the analysis of the cost of a system or a component over its entire life span. Typical costs for a system may include: \n\n Acquisition costs\nOperating costs\nCost of failure\nCost of repair\nCost of spares\nDowntime costs\nLoss of production\nMaintenance costs\nCost of corrective maintenance\nCost of preventative maintenance\nCost of predictive maintenance\nDisposal costs\n\nThis course take delegates through the six steps of LCC which are “Problem Definition”\, “Cost Elements definition”\, “System Modelling”\, “Data Collection”\, Cost Profile Development” and “Evaluation”. \n  \nWho Should Attend\n• All plant Engineers engaged in maintenance\, turnarounds and minor projects\n• All project personnel involved in the project design and management\n• Plant financial personnel\n• Contractor personnel involved in plant maintenance and projects \n\nKey Learning Points Include:\n• To make plant personnel aware of theimportance of overall equipment availability atthe least cost\n• To share financial principles to enable engineers to arrive at the least cost options in solving technical problems\n• To enable project managers/engineers to justify higher initial cost where lower overall life cycle cost and higher reliability result\n• To make all participants aware of the time value of money and the Cost of Non Conformance (PONC) \n  \nEndorsed by: \n   \n  \n  \n \nOur definitive portal\, The Power Times provides information and news on power generation\, transmission and distribution entities.

SUMMARY:Plant Maintenance Planning & Project Management
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nUnderstanding the Maintenance process\nThe effective maintenance management within chemical plants is a critical feature of plant operation\, both in establishing the conditions for safe ongoing operation of the plant after commissioning\, and in supporting the commercial success of the business.  Many companies focus on the cost of the maintenance organisation\, rather than on the benefits that they can provide\, and in so doing the real potential for maintenance organisations to make significant contributions to business success are often lost. Ultimately\, the contribution of a maintenance organisation can most effectively be measured in terms of its ability to generate sustained improvements with time in the total (fixed and variable) cost per unit volume of production. \nThere are a number of drivers which tend to increase the cost of production; certain types of equipment become unreliable with time\, obsolescence is often an issue\, environmental and safety standards are continuing to tighten\, and so on.  There are many tools and techniques that are available to help.  Techniques such as Risk Based Inspection\, Reliability Centred Maintenance\, and Total Productive Maintenance can all add value if they are used appropriately\, but it is important to remember that the long term aim of plant maintenance is to deliver sustained and continuous reduction in the cost per unit of production\, a point often lost in the mounds of paperwork that can be generated by some of the tools that are provided to help the maintenance engineer in his decision making! \nUnderstanding the Project Process\nOver the last ten years\, the top quartile of major process industry companies have improved their project cost performance by 18% and their project cycle times by 36%.  The leading companies have achieved this by applying good project practices consistently across their organisations. \nA key foundation stone to this process is a high level Project Process that has active support and ownership from senior management\, business managers\, project managers and project execution staff. This high level process incorporates and requires the application of good project practices\, with key deliverables and activities which would be expected at various stages and ensures that the project proceeds at an appropriate speed\, pre sanction expenditure is properly targeted and minimised and that the project only arrive at sanction with the right level of definition and supported by a valid business case. \nFormat for Effective Learning\nUsing a combination of lectures\, visual aids\, class discussions and case studies the course presents a logical and practical “hands on” approach to the planning \,execution of plant maintenance and project.  Case studies that require active participation demonstrate the lessons learned from past experience. \n​Benefits of Attending\n\nUnderstand the role of planning & scheduling in Maintenance and Projects\nLearn comprehensively the six principles of maintenance planning and scheduling\nOptimise your knowledge of maintenance methodologies\nExamine how you can monitor engineering maintenance performance\nReview key activities and deliverables in the project process\nMonitor and benchmark project performance\nEnsure accurate\, reliable and real time data for preparation and execution auditing\n\nWho should attend\nThis course takes delegates through the planning and management phase of both  maintenance and project management\, based on best practice. The course is especially useful for Engineering and Project managers\, engineers\, planners\, schedulers\, supervisors\, cost engineers\, Safety/Quality engineers and Operations personnel. \n  \nEndorsed by: \n    \nFor further information of this course\, please email to info@opuskinetic.com
