Strategies for Excellence in Maintenance Management
What we gain by maintaining our physical assets diligently is Uptime – the capacity to product and provide goods and services. The higher the quality and service we can deliver for a given cost and response time, the more value the customer perceives.
UPTIME refers to a model for excellence in Maintenance Management from the book of the same name. It applies to any organization managing maintenance and physical assets crucial to delivery of product or services. You depend on those assets for productivity and revenue generation. You want to maintain them at the lowest cost to sustain their performance. These courses describe the concepts of efficiency and effectiveness as they pertain to your physical assets, the UPTIME model, the benefits it delivers to your business and important considerations that are essential to implementing it successfully. Our short course is aimed at executives and decisions makers. The longer versions enable us to go into more detail and entertain far more discussion as we get close to the ranks of those who must make the changes happen.
