About This Book:
This book on World Class Maintenance Management - The 12 Disciplines depicts the life, pressure and struggles of maintenance in seeking better ways and means in improving how they manage and maintain their equipment and assets in their industry. The Author shares his passion and experience about the day to day struggles in the life of a maintenance. Industries are looking for better ways on how to do the correct maintenance on their equipment and assets. I wrote this book because I believe with all my heart and experience that every maintenance from industries should understand that not all they we do on maintenance is right and that we need to change our paradigm in order to achieve a World Class Maintenance Management level. Most industries use the traditional concept of Preventive Maintenance realizing that they end up with more failures and breakdowns on their equipment. This book will tell you why. Some of the main highlights of this book includes:
This book contains real life stories, struggles and actual experiences by the Author in his career in maintenance and currently as a Reliability and Maintenance Consultant. The book is easy to absorb as it is structured into three parts which are the Basics, the Strategies and the Advance Disciplines. The Twelve Disciplines are grouped accordingly into these three parts. Maintenance often time seek for advance ways in dealing with their everyday problems and issues. The message of this book is simple and straightforward, that there is no better way to start by going back to the "Basics" and addressing these very small problems we have in our plant. Big problems, unplanned break-downs and catastrophic failures are just an accumulation of small problems that has always been ignored and mostly neglected in the first place. The Author strongly emphasize the importance operators play in addressing these basic equipment condition and is considered a partner with maintenance on this shared responsibility they have towards their equipment. It is very difficult or impossible for maintenance people to transcend from a reactive to a proactive mode if operators will not be involved along the way. When the Basics had been set and well established, then maintenance can move on with the different maintenance and reliability strategies which are explained in detail on this book. Each Chapter covers a specific maintenance discipline. Chapter 14 of this book covers an implementation stage and the last chapter explains about people.
