Key aspects of this position include.
Working with various plant teams and areas to identify, evaluate, and implement reliability improvement opportunities through changes to operating and maintenance procedures, and equipment upgrades.
Analyzing equipment history to identify reliability improvement opportunities.
Deploying root cause analysis methods and tools on problems or failures that have resulted in consequential impacts related to machine downtime and / or maintenance expense.
Participating in new equipment selection and deployment processes to ensure reliability and maintainability principles are included in the design and implementation activities.
Supporting the Autonomous Maintenance process by contributing to the design and selection of operator inspections and tasks to sustain equipment condition and performance.
Promoting the following reliability strategies:
Planned corrective maintenance is more effective than reactive maintenance.
Time based preventive maintenance is more effective than plan corrective maintenance.
Condition based (predictive) maintenance is more effective than time based preventive maintenance.
Prevention of maintenance is the best comprehensive maintenance strategy.
Participating in audits to measure and validate progression and performance in the reliability journey.
Utilizing reliability centered maintenance (RCM) principles to optimize the equipment maintenance strategy.
Serving as a subject matter expert of the computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) and assist in end user training efforts to ensure master and transactional data integrity and accuracy.
