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. Training Objectives Master the critical skills by acquiring the following: An understanding of how maintenance can add profit The ability to develop improvement programmes that deliver maximum benefit in the shortest time A fundamental understanding of the principles of Preventive, Predictive and other maintenance types A practical understanding of the latest methods of solving problems at root cause level An appreciation of maintenance methodologies such as Reliability Centred Maintenance Strategies for ensuring your company gets value for money from your Contractors How to use the Maintenance Model of Excellence and Plant Performance Improvement Road Map Target Audience This VILT course has been designed for maintenance managers and engineers, reliability professionals, planners, project engineers, operations team members, and functional specialists. Training Methods The VILT course will be delivered online in 8 half-day sessions comprising 4 hours per day, with 2 breaks of 10 minutes per day. Course Duration: 8 half-day sessions, 4 hours per session (32 hours in total). Trainer Your expert course leader is an award-winning consultant and trainer with 30 years' experience in maintenance and reliability improvement. He has worked across five continents, in a wide variety of environments from the world's largest oil refinery to a small drinks production line. He has 10 years of maintenance management experience in the process industry, so he brings a very practical approach to training. He moved into consulting with ABB Eutech as their global maintenance specialist where he led maintenance and reliability best practice panels, delivered a wide range of maintenance improvement projects and trained other consultants. He is a fully qualified CMRP professional, an approved SMRP* Proctor, authorised to conduct CMRP exams and a globally respected maintenance consultant and best practice trainer. He founded his consultancy and training business in 2002 to focus on maintenance and reliability improvement. As part of this, he developed a range of maintenance 'models of excellence' with inputs from authors, international lecturers and some of the world's leading consultants and operators. His work has been recognised as being at the leading edge of industry best practice, winning independent awards such as the UK Chemical Industries Association 'Excellence in Engineering' award. He remains close to the industry as a respected specialist helping operating companies to achieve changes in performance. This ongoing field work enables him to continue to refine and extend best practice and the learning from this is continually fed into his training. His unique experience of facilitating two major turnarounds when the Coronavirus escalated into lockdown have given him a unique insight into how events of this type can disrupt maintenance.
