Objective

Maintenance and its planning are an important part of the operations of a modern production plant.

In this course you will learn to identify the development targets and starting points for preventive maintenance. You will learn to recognize what RCM (Reliability Centered Maintenance) means and what are the steps of RCM. You also will learn to know the basics of the other methods of preventive maintenance. You will learn to use KPIs. You will also learn to take advantage of maintenance research information.

The development of your skills starts with understanding the goals and objectives of maintenance in different locations (production plants). You will learn to identify areas for development by knowing the special requirements of each area. You will learn how to do maintenance planning in practice using the RCM -method and other preventive maintenance methods.

After completing this course, you will understand the importance of modern production plant maintenance. You have learned to identify maintenance development areas and apply maintenance development methods in various production plants.
