Introduction

Equipment Maintenance is a complex process in any industry regardless of its scope. Shutdowns provide unique opportunities to a maintenance department not normally available during standard operation or even during short shutdown periods. A large work is required to schedule into a relatively short period of time. Very often, the cost of lost production due to unplanned failures far outweighs the shutdown cost.

This course provides the basics and applications required for any successful shutdown maintenance program. Good understanding of shutdown maintenance techniques and relevant decisions will lead to profitable industrial systems.

Methodology

Our courses are highly interactive, typically taking a case study approach that we have found to be an effective method of fostering discussions and transferring knowledge. Participants will learn by active participation during the program through the use of individual exercises, questionnaires, team exercises, training videos and discussions of “real life” issues in their organizations.
The material has been designed to enable delegates to apply all of the material with immediate effect back in the workplace.
