This 3 day training workshop sets out how to apply Lean thinking to the maintenance activity. The course content includes a review of current practices against Lean Maintenance benchmarks to support the development of Lean Maintenance plans that build on current practices to improve maintenance workflow, skill profiles, data analysis, process optimisation and engineering project added value.
- Learn how current maintenance practices compare with best in class maintenance standards
- Understand where there are gaps and how that impacts on maintenance value
- Know how to resolve those gaps and justify actions to do so
- Be able to develop a forward programme to deliver the gains from adopting a Lean Maintenance approach.
In addition to improving workflow and extending component life, Lean Maintenance releases Maintainer value adding potential to reduce quality defects and resource usage whilst increasing capacity and flexibility to shifts in demand.
Overview
Learn how apply the Lean Maintenance Road Map to build on existing good practices and improve:
- Maintenance execution through standard work that:
- Removes the causes of accelerated wear and human error.
- Improves working methods, speeds up skill development and simplifies spares management.
- Process optimisation using Lean Workflow Management, Data Analysis and Problem Prevention tools to
- Stabilise and extend component life
- Improve resilience to shifts in demand
- Project management of shutdowns or the introduction of new equipment, systems, products and services.
The content includes lessons from well known and award winning organisations to explain how engaging Maintenance within a Lean programme can deliver as much as 50% more in terms of year on year gains.
Through the workshop delegates will:
- Learn how current maintenance practices compare with best in class maintenance standards
- Understand where there are gaps and how that impacts on maintenance value
- Know how to resolve those gaps and justify actions to do so
- Be able to develop a forward programme to deliver the gains from adopting a Lean Maintenance approach.
Delegates will take away a comprehensive workbook containing briefing notes and supporting templates so that they can carry out the review process back at the workplace.
Who Should Attend?
Engineering and Maintenance leaders, Lean champions, Facilitators and First Line Managers and key maintenance personnel with an interest in increasing their understanding of how to release the full potential of the maintenance function.
