WHAT IS RELIABILITY CENTERED MAINTENANCE (RCM)?
Forward-thinking data and analytics teams know that outputs from AI technologies will only be as good as the data that feeds them.
CAMPing in a numb position towards aircraft maintenance does not give power to maintenance management but rather the OEM. Not Maintenance Management because it won’t be getting the full potential out of the aircraft’s data. If you don’t take control of your data, you cannot do cost control.
Where maintenance systems are predominantly reactive, up to fifty percent, and occasionally even more, of maintenance spending can be eliminated.
How?
Simply redesign your reactive maintenance system into one that results in proactive results. The reactive maintenance thought process and behavior drive up the true cost of maintenance.
Eliminate fifty percent of my maintenance costs? Can that possibly be true?
The truth of this statement can be verified if you’ll begin by examining a recent, major failure that you experienced. What was the cost of the repair? What was the value of the product not produced, the value of lost business opportunity while repairs were made, the value of customer dissatisfaction when the order was short or late?
Reliability, just like safety, is everyone’s responsibility.
Any deficiencies in reactive processes create defects that result in excessive downtime, rate losses, and unnecessary work.
With the advent of reliable and affordable predictive, performance and condition monitoring techniques, the need for strictly time-based replacement and/or rebuild planned maintenance routines is significantly reduced. Moreover, most of these condition-monitoring techniques are performed while the equipment is running. When employ successfully, these technologies and techniques significantly reduce the true cost of maintenance.
The Seven Days Structured Data Plan
SDSDP helps set relevant metrics, to understand an aircraft’s behavior, the relevant assets behavior, why things happen from one pilot to the other, how to deal with such human behaviors, what triggers costs. These, among others, are metrics relevant to every aircraft data analysis and must be implemented as per its own history. The proper attitude towards Reliability Centered Maintenance.
No bird flies the same, even those of the same family.
Reliability engineering is a specialized field within the engineering discipline that focuses on ensuring systems, products, and processes function as intended with minimal problems, and costs. Professionals in this field utilize a wide range of methodologies to analyze potential failures and then determine how to best eliminate or mitigate any factors that may cause failure or performance degradation.
How does COLIBRY bring RCM into play?
Freedom with simplicity. Based on our ATAEZY © dealing with the AMM tasks and accesses and related costs, you have unlimited capacity towards analysis for functional failures, functional modes, functional effects and functional consequences.
This intuitive functionality generates a proactive maintenance attitude instead of a reactive one.
The strategies you define by involving every single stakeholder through MessengAIR © also keep you away from costly inspection recommendations.
Applying this simple principle to every costly asset allows you to control maintenance costs.
One size fit all is a fake. It’s a bottomless pit for creating chaos thus generating cash. You won’t find reliability there.
Direct maintenance costs, indirect maintenance costs, steps to measure maintenance costs, identifying maintenance activities, automatically calculating the cost of each activity, strategies to reduce maintenance costs, implementation of condition based monitoring, optimization of scheduling, prioritization of component reliability, ensuring effective collaboration: These are all part of what Colibry can generate in a simple way, towards a Reliability Centered Maintenance approach, thus getting rid of all the noise.
Colibry is anything but complicated and mind boggling. It’s simple and that’s what makes it so much more powerful.
