COURSE OVERVIEW:

In the era of data-driven asset management, the ability to accurately measure and analyze equipment performance is vital for operational excellence. This course provides a technical deep dive into the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) used to track the health and efficiency of rotating equipment, specifically focusing on Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF), Mean Time To Repair (MTTR), and Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE). Participants will learn how to transform raw maintenance data into actionable insights that drive strategic decision-making.

The scope of this training extends from the mathematical formulas used to calculate these metrics to the practical challenges of data quality and consistency in a plant environment. We will examine how MTBF serves as a proxy for reliability, how MTTR measures maintenance efficiency, and how OEE provides a holistic view of asset productivity by combining availability, performance, and quality. The course emphasizes the importance of benchmarking and trend analysis to identify systemic issues in pumps, compressors, and motors.

Coverage includes the integration of KPIs into dashboarding systems and the use of these metrics to justify capital expenditures and maintenance budget allocations. Attendees will learn how to utilize KPIs to support Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA) and Reliability Centred Maintenance (RCM) initiatives. By mastering the application of these metrics, participants will be equipped to provide a clear, quantifiable picture of asset performance to senior leadership and lead their teams toward continuous reliability improvement.

COURSE OBJECTIVES:

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

• Define and calculate the core reliability metrics: MTBF, MTTR, and MTTF.
• Interpret Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) for rotating machinery.
• Distinguish between availability and reliability in a technical context.
• Utilize KPIs to identify "bad actor" equipment in a fleet.
• Analyze the relationship between maintenance spend and reliability KPIs.
• Calculate the financial impact of OEE improvements on plant profitability.
• Set realistic and achievable KPI targets for rotating equipment teams.
• Clean and validate CMMS data for accurate metric reporting.
• Create effective reliability dashboards and visualizations.
• Use MTBF trends to evaluate the success of maintenance strategy changes.
• Benchmark equipment performance against industry standards (e.g., ISO 14224).
• Identify the "Six Big Losses" and their impact on OEE.
• Communicate technical reliability data effectively to non-technical stakeholders.
• Develop a roadmap for a data-driven reliability improvement program.

TARGET AUDIENCE:

Maintenance Managers, Reliability Engineers, Plant Controllers, Data Analysts, Production Supervisors, and Maintenance Planners.

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:

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