Operator Rounds and Field Inspection Routines
Operator rounds are the cheapest condition monitoring an operation has and are usually reduced to a signature on a sheet. This course covers rounds that actually find developing faults.
Course outline
What this programme covers, module by module.
- 01The cheapest condition monitoring, reduced to a signature
- 02Deciding what to check, and dropping what tells you nothing
- 03Routes, frequencies and building them around real risk
- 04Teaching operators to notice, describe and escalate a change
- 05Capturing a finding so it turns into a work order
- 06Verification: proving a round happened rather than assuming
- 07Measuring the catch rate and adjusting what is checked
What you will gain
- Decide what a round should check and why
- Design routes and frequencies around real risk

Planned Preventive Maintenance
Reactive maintenance is the most expensive way to keep plant running. This course covers the design and running of a preventive maintenance programme: what to maintain, how often, and how to prove the programme is working.
Reliability Centred Maintenance
Reliability centred maintenance asks what each asset must do and what happens when it cannot, then selects maintenance accordingly. This course teaches the analysis method and how to apply it without drowning in paperwork.
Root Cause Failure Analysis
Equipment that fails repeatedly is usually being repaired rather than fixed. This course builds the investigative discipline to trace a failure to its physical, human and system roots and to implement corrections that hold.
