My understanding of an obsolete part is one that is no longer being manufactured by the OEM, either due to newer models or even the OEM simply not supporting that component.

FAA AC 120 17B good reference. Did you have a maintenance program then how do you monitor its effectivity?

It is difficult, and probably unfair to make the following comment in isolation of watching one video, but here goes. Most maintenance organizations I have worked in are undermanned as I believe most companies still operate under the misunderstanding that maintenance is a necessary evil, a budget drain and expense they would prefer to avoid. I always start with a questionnaire split between the maintenance planning and execution, and let the maintenance personnel answer it. You get a radar diagram that gives you a very easy, visual picture of your strengths and weaknesses. And that allows you to focus on those parts of the work process where you need to apply attention. Now you can agree a place to start, set a SMART goal to do so, assign ownership, and draw up a plan to implement. Easier said than done at times, as the undermanned organization must still perform its core activities and keep the plant operating I also believe that all plant and equipment should have a criticality measure applied and visible in the CMMS as that helps drive the day-to-day prioritization of execution. I think if you get these things right you have a do-able game-plan, but you need your management's support to achieve success.

Those 3 characteristics of a good KPI are useful to remember: Encourage the right behaviour, difficult to manipulate, and not difficult to measure.

Hi

I am interested

Awesome information as usual, now and back then. Thank you!

Thank you and your team for sharing your knowledge, Sir. You are truly appreciated.

Great information applicable to real life scenarios. Thank you Sir!! Any suggestion for someone like me who's coming back to manufacturing after 18 years (I'm a woman who stayed home to raise a family)? I've learning computer software and I'm enrolled to learn CMMS because my job position will be maintenance planner/scheduler.

I’ve been in operations management and supervising manufacturing operations for decades now and I have found a lot of engineers just goof off all day long and more or less a glorified quality inspector. I would end up having to figure out the issues and root cause along with supervisors and maintenance and team leaders who work out on the floor. A lot of the engineers I’ve worked with absolutely know nothing of the manufacturing processes. Good video on explaining what one should know and. E accomplishing daily.

Never cut expenses on repair and maintenance for your machines and transportation….. you could cost more in damages and accidents when your vehicles, machinery, facilities, and operation centers fail….. it is better to invest in repairs and safety checks ups or you could see lawsuits and danger when your machinery and transportation burns out…. Safety first….. let’s get rid of luxuries and avoid future problems to balance out the budget

Thanks for sharing

Good job!

Thank you so much sir, I'm new to your channel and yet so informative. Watching from Philippines.

Kitting can seem "daunting" for many organizations. Pick an area and pilot the kitting and staging process, identify opportunities for improvement. Once the process has been improved, move into another area. Have to start somewhere!

Thank You.

Very helpful. BTW In post soviet countries they didn't even have a term for Scheduling. It all was called planning.

You are incredible.

wow excellent explanation

Can't wait to see the new pack of tips!

Good overview, operations involvement is key. Like the way you phrased it as "first line of defence".

Very true, the right image can often get the point across more quickly and more clearly. Good reminders!

Great overview of the reasons why the hierarchy info is important and the process to implement and improve it. Well worth digging into this more to get the benefits.

Very important think you

As a recently appointed head of planning and scheduling this has been one of my most difficult tasks, to separate planners from several day to day affairs so they focus on planning. The problem is that someone has to do every of those "not a planners job"..

Exactly... they do everything but actually planning

Very good material. Thank you for your time.

Good video. Short and to the point.

Great videoa nd thank you for the information I truly appreciate it Sir.👍

Very good presentation Leslie

I really liked this presentation

good point

Very relatable! "Degrees from the goal" happens and we don't even realize it.

Hourly trades can assist in the development of the Standard Job Plans (SJPs) - great way to get their buy-in and feedback for continuous improvement.

well... gone shopping now 🙃

I will make plans to attend, it has been 23 years since the last maintenance roundtable. So many things have changed in that period.

How much percent of maintenance rely on human is the goal..because in theory 99% of all automatic is done by machine possible and 24 hr on is easy if use triangle rotation operation so machine always had off time just like human and layers of short or long order are separate but all is boil down to finance

Respected sir I want to do good work in Reliability, how can i join you.... With Regards

Detailed step by step process for updating BOMs for any organization - knowing where to start is often the hardest part! Thanks, John!

Good info. TY

Great video Thanks

Make it loud

Planner's are often hindered by the absence or out of date BOMs. Good idea to identify the role(s) for the refinement of BOMs within an organization. Great video John!

Nice summary John. BOMs are critical to reliability success. One other reminder to folks is to make it part of your new equipment; that is for any new equipment the supplier must supply a complete digital-format BOM. This can then be loaded into the CMMS with little effort.

Great info.

Great video... nice change.. keep going Greg..

I was actually hoping to see such kind of content long ago

Nicely edited.

Keep it going

Keep it simple! It is human nature to over complicate or overthink.
