4º maintenance planning principle for Success in planning & scheduling. Use planner judgment for time estimates: Planners should use their experience and skills in addition to file information to determine time estimates for work orders. Time estimates should be reasonable with what a technician might require to complete a job without any issues. This means planners should have technical, communication and organizational data skills to make a reasonable estimate. This principle requires planners to be chosen from the organization's best technicians, possibly ones with the most seniority. For example, someone with 15 years of technician experience who accepted a planner position might notice in a previous work order file that a pump alignment took eight hours. He knows from experience that, when done by a competent mechanic, this task should only take around five hours, so he uses the five-hour estimate when creating the job plan for this task.

What the maintenance planning department have to do when the concerned person submits a work request? After a person writes a work order for the maintenance department, maintenance planning takes action. A maintenance planning group helps coordinate many of the specialized activities of maintenance. A maintenance planner takes the work order and does preparatory planning for the crew supervisor and craftpersons who will ultimately execute the work. 1- The planner considers the proper scope of work for the job. The work requester may have identified a noisy valve. 2- The planner judges whether the valve should be patched or replaced. 3- The planner also identifies appropriate materials for the specified job and whether they are available or must be specially ordered. 4- Th planner specifies the appropriate craft skills for the job. Having these determination made before the crew supervisor assigns a job for avoid problems such as delays stemming from assigning a person with insufficient craft skills or from not having required materials or tools available. Having time estimates also allows crew supervisors to judge how much work to assign. #planning #scheduling #maintenance #terminal #port #assetmanagement #asset #engineering #mechanicalengineering #spareparts #parts #workorder #planningdepartment

How do you prioritize work requests as a maintenance planner? According to IDCON INC: The priority of the work is based on the consequence of not doing the job and the condition of the component as measured during a component inspection. In a good organization, up to 90% of all maintenance work is a result of condition monitoring, including basic inspection routes and interviews with operators. With real priorities, more work can be planned, and after that it can be scheduled and executed in an efficient way.

Proper maintenance planning and scheduling, when done right, can greatly increase productivity. Maintenance planning can be defined as an end-to-end process that identifies and addresses any possible issues ahead of time. This involves identifying the parts and tools necessary for jobs and making sure they're available and laid out in the appropriate areas, having a planner write out instructions on how to complete a job, and even determining and gathering the necessary parts and/or tools before a job is assigned. Maintenance planning should define the "what," "why" and "how." This means specifying: 1. What work needs to be done with what materials, tools and equipment. 2. Why a particular action was chosen (why a valve is being replaced instead of a seat). 3. How the work should be completed. Maintenance scheduling refers to the timing of planned work, it offers details of "when" and "who." 1. When the work should be done. 2. Who should perform it. Scheduling is meant to: 1. Schedule the maximum amount of work with the available resources. 2. Schedule according to the highest priority work orders. 3. Schedule the maximum number of preventive maintenance jobs when necessary. 4. Minimize the use of contract and outside resources by effectively using internal labor. #maintenance #planning #scheduling #engineering #preventive

Cost avoidance.  What does a Site Reliability Engineer do?  We work with our Maintenance Mechanics, Maintenance Planner and Maintenance Supervisor to mitigate risk and to avoid extra costs associated with running the business.  The costs we help to avoid include emergency loss, performance loss, quality issues, secondary damage to other components.  One example would be a potential failure of a large high-speed blower bearing.  If defects are found and corrected early, the planned downtime could be about 6 hours.  The cost would be 2-3 mechanics labor and a new bearing.  If left unchecked the blower could incur secondary damage to the shroud, fan, shaft and other components.  This more extensive damage would require days of unplanned downtime and may require components not stocked in inventory.  The repairs would be more extensive having to take apart the entire asset and may require outside contractors to assist the Mechanics.  It's not always apparent the money Site Reliability and Maintenance saved the organization, because we try to catch defects early and maintain an acceptable level of risk.  It's a delicate balancing act and allows Operations to have better information to forecast and to make decisions based on the health of the assets. #reliabilityengineering #manufacturing #reliability

Are you a Facilities Professional responsible for Preventive Maintenance (PM) at your facility, campus or organization? Are you a company that provides these services? How do you gauge the effectiveness of your PM program? How can you tell if your staff is really engaged in the PM activities, or if they are just going through the motions? Do you need to build a PM program from scratch? Can you do too much PM? Do you know the cost of repairs done during PM versus unplanned maintenance? I've spent 30+ years in the industry. I'm a Millwright/Industrial Mechanic by trade. I've spent over 15 years in Facilities Management. I've worked in manufacturing, food plants, electrical engineering, higher ed, municipalities and more. I can help start or improve your PM program! #pm #maintenance #PdM #preventivemaintenance #equipment #buildings #facilities #manufacturing #failures #facman #fm #facilitiesmanager #maintain #breakdown #unplanned #uptime #downtime #critical #uel

What is Shutdown/Shutdown Activities for Oil and Gas Plants? --Close down-- A shutdown project's implementation phase typically lasts 5 to 14 days. Initially, after the zero date has passed, all operations are halted, manholes are opened, and the equipment is centrally cleaned. Preliminary infrastructure is examined both internally and externally, and afterward, some adjustments are done. Supervisory personnel in charge of facility maintenance are in charge of carrying out shutdown operations. To finish the task within the allotted time, we combine the shutdown scheduler with shutdown planner job packets. Close down operations 1. A toolbox Discuss work ranges, hazards, and safety officer and supervisory controls. 2. Acquiring licenses, Equipment for entry into the workplace, fire and hole watches, and equipment for neutralization and decontamination 3. Blind installation, Manway open, Get a certificate of gas testing and install air movers for ventilation. Cooling down apparatus 4. A confined space to monitor the time of arrival and departure. Putting on temporary lighting 5. A metal box should be placed over all of the bottom nozzles to prevent the entry of foreign objects. 6. Conduct a preliminary examination for QC and obtain guidance. 7. Set up scaffolding inside. 8. Finish all the tasks based on the scope and QC advice. Hydrostatic, X-ray, and other tests 9. Make a proposal for the last examination and internal scaffolding removal. 10. Get a box-up certificate from the maintenance, operation, process, and quality control departments. 11. QC and maintenance torque witness 12. Housekeeping and general cleanup Depending on the requirements of the scope of the task, you can add more. Note: In order to make the work materials conveniently available during the S-D , they are isolated prior to S-D .
