COURSE OVERVIEW:

The Asset Integrity and Reliability Management System course is an advanced program that bridges the gap between mechanical soundness and operational performance. This curriculum provides a holistic view of how to manage industrial assets throughout their entire lifecycle, ensuring they remain safe to operate and capable of fulfilling their intended function. By integrating integrity (the hardware) with reliability (the system performance), organizations can achieve a state of "Operational Excellence" that minimizes risk and maximizes profitability.

The scope of this training covers the international standards for asset management, including ISO 55001, and how they apply to capital-intensive industries. Participants will explore the development of strategic asset management plans that align with corporate objectives. The course emphasizes the use of advanced tools such as Reliability Centered Maintenance, Failure Modes and Effects Analysis, and Root Cause Analysis to drive continuous improvement in asset health.

Coverage includes the human and organizational factors that influence integrity and reliability, such as leadership, culture, and competency. The course provides a detailed framework for managing equipment data, tracking performance through sophisticated KPIs, and making data-driven decisions regarding maintenance and replacement. By the end of this program, attendees will be equipped to implement an integrated management system that ensures assets are resilient, reliable, and compliant with all safety and environmental regulations.

COURSE OBJECTIVES:

After completion of this course, the participants will be able to:

1. Explain the synergy between asset integrity and reliability management.
2. Apply the principles of ISO 55001 to an industrial organization.
3. Develop a Strategic Asset Management Plan (SAMP) for a facility.
4. Conduct Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) studies on critical systems.
5. Perform Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) to identify risks.
6. Utilize Root Cause Analysis (RCA) to eliminate repetitive failures.
7. Implement an Asset Integrity Management System (AIMS) framework.
8. Establish a hierarchy for asset data and performance tracking.
9. Define and monitor leading and lagging indicators for reliability.
10. Manage the lifecycle cost of assets from cradle to grave.
11. Integrate risk-based inspection results into maintenance schedules.
12. Lead cross-functional teams in asset performance improvement projects.
13. Foster a culture of reliability and technical discipline within the workforce.

TARGET AUDIENCE:

This course is designed for plant managers, reliability engineers, integrity leaders, maintenance department heads, and operational excellence specialists responsible for high-value asset performance.

TRAINING COURSE METHODOLOGY:

A highly interactive combination of lectures, discussion sessions, and case studies will be employed to maximise the transfer of information, knowledge, and experience. The course will be intensive, practical, and highly interactive. The sessions will start by raising the most relevant questions and motivating everybody to find the right answers. The attendants will also be encouraged to raise more of their questions and to share in developing the right answers using their analysis and experience. There will also be some indoor experiential activities to enhance the learning experience. Course material will be provided in PowerPoint, with necessary animations, learning videos, and general discussions.

The course participants shall be evaluated before, during, and at the end of the course.

COURSE CERTIFICATE:

The National Consultant Centre for Training LLC (NCC) will issue an Attendance Certificate to all participants who complete a minimum of 80% of the total attendance time requirement.
