About this Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) Preventive and Predictive maintenance are not new concepts. Both have been used across industry all over the world and when done properly, can yield impressive results (cost reductions of 20% or greater and a leap forward in equipment reliability and performance are very achievable). However, for every company using these concepts effectively, there are many others who are not. This 8 half-day Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) course has been derived from the Plant Performance Improvement Road Map developed by practitioners that guarantee the reliability of your operations. The VILT training focuses on how to improve profitability of any business by identifying the right maintenance strategy for any equipment. The aim of the VILT training is to help practitioners run programmes that will deliver real benefits as fast as possible with minimum zero wasted effort. The VILT training will also cover the core principles of Reliability Centred Maintenance, Total Productive Maintenance and Six Sigma and the increasingly important role of operations in achieving optimised asset performance. This is a certified course with the option of sitting for a short exam on the final day of the course to give participants the opportunity to gain a Certificate from petroEDGE and the Carcharodon Maintenance Academy.
