Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) Facilitator Foundation Course

Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) Facilitator Foundation Course
Summary

The RCM Facilitator Foundation Course covers the basic principles of RCM, its history, and its role in asset management. Participants will learn how to develop a maintenance program using RCM principles, including how to identify critical assets and develop maintenance tasks that are tailored to the specific needs of those assets. They will also learn how to analyze data to identify trends and patterns that can inform maintenance decisions.

The training typically includes a combination of theoretical and practical sessions. Participants will be introduced to various RCM tools and techniques, such as Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA), fault tree analysis, and criticality analysis. They will also learn how to facilitate RCM workshops and manage the RCM process from start to finish.

Upon completion of the RCM Facilitator Foundation Training, participants will have the skills and knowledge to facilitate the RCM process within their organizations. They will be able to work with cross-functional teams to identify critical assets, develop maintenance tasks, and continuously improve the maintenance program using RCM principles. Additionally, they will be able to effectively communicate the benefits of RCM to stakeholders and obtain buy-in for the implementation of RCM strategies.

  • BK Management Team believe that learning is not only about acquiring technical skills, it is also about learning behaviors & Competencies that are desirable for work in plant operation & maintenance critical dimensions. Our holistic teaching develops our delegates' personal effectiveness to function both as an individual and as a team player. The course delivery & modes of instruction will incorporate theory , practical skills and Q&A sessions. 
  • To enhance learning outcomes, theory sessions will comprise classroom based lecture that will intersperse with interactive discussions, scenario-based, case-study, group exercises, video clips, power point slides, learners' Guide and the application of various tools which will be provided to help in the delegates and participants of the learning’s objectives. With successful implementation of the learnt skills they are bound to enhance Individual & Organizational growth.
  • For online / Interactive Virtual sessions, Delegate should have a stable & good Internet connection on his Laptop.

A BK’s Certificate of Attendance will be issued to attendees after completing 80% attendance.
