1. Five Essential Elements of a Reliability Initiative

Building a reliability improvement initiative is not rocket science, but there are five key elements that are required to ensure the program will achieve the greatest benefit and be sustainable. Can you just focus on maintenance? No. Can you pass the buck to consultants? We don’t think so.
In this Webinar we will reveal the five elements, justify why they are so important, and explain why (in our experience) the best programs are driven from within.

2. Reliability Improvement: Precision Lubrication & Contamination Control

The presentation is one module of the Toolbox Talks (TT) series within the iLearnReliability training collection. It explains how important lubrication is, and highlights critical it is that the lubricant is in a fit state with the correct viscosity and other properties and free of contaminants. The focus is rolling element bearing lubrication, and the 3D animations make it clear that contaminants damage the bearing surface and too much or too little lubrication will greatly reduce the life of the bearing.

3. Reliability Improvement: Manager Briefing - the Roadmap to Reliability

The presentation is one module of the Manager Briefings (MB) series within the iLearnReliability training collection. A discussion for plant managers, it presents how to implement Plant Empowered Reliability Improvement (PERI); explaining the elements of transforming your plant from reactive to reliable.

4. The Roadmap to Reliability

Plant Empowered Reliability Improvement (PERI) is achievable and sustainable without the need to hire expensive consultants who benefit by your program's dependence on them. Jason Tranter describes the Roadmap to Reliability Improvement that can be realized without outside help.

5. Reliability Improvement: Improve Your Plant Reliability

Everyone contributes to unreliability, therefore everyone must be trained to improve your plant's reliability. This overview presentation describes how you can take meaningful steps toward sustainable reliability improvement by subscribing to iLearnReliability. Plant-wide training for everyone at your plant from top management, reliability and condition monitoring program managers, skills training for the craftsmen and plant-wide awareness for everyone on the plant floor.

6. Plant Reliability: Pockets of Knowledge

How do make sure that everyone is on the same page - all pulling in the same direction to achieve improved reliability success? With merely "pockets of knowledge" your reliability initiative won't be sustainable. This iLearnReliability presentation examines this topic, and provides suggestions to avoid this common pitfall.

7. Contamination Control: The Key to Gearbox Reliability

If you are not controlling contamination of your lubricants, then you cannot achieve the maximum service life of your rotating machinery or your lubricants. Using lots of 3D animations and animated illustrations, this presentation will focus on gearbox lubrication, explaining why contamination reduces the life of the gears and bearings (and the oil itself), how much the service life is reduced, how to reduce contamination, and how to remove unavoidable (and avoidable) contaminants.

8. Reliability Improvement: Establishing the Asset Criticality Ranking

Without the Asset Criticality Ranking, your reliability improvement (and work management) program is flying blind. It is essential that the reliability improvement program begins with the development of an asset criticality ranking that everyone (maintenance, production, EHS, quality, and other "stakeholders") agree to. The criticality ranking is used to determine the maintenance and reliability strategy, the maintenance/work order priorities, spares management, resource allocation, and more. But developing the ranking with full agreement is challenging. This Webinar proposes an approach that will work.

9. Reliability Improvement: Adopting a Defect Elimination and CBM program

Jason Tranter, found of Mobius Institute presents "Adopting a defect elimination and condition based maintenance program to achieve the lowest lifecycle costs". You will learn how to plan, prevent, monitor and improve via a properly implemented program that will help your organization improve operational reliability.

10. How to eat the [Reliability] Elephant - Part 1: Change the Culture

Improving reliability can be daunting, especially if your plant is still in reactive maintenance mode. You need to improve everything from the way equipment is designed and purchased through to the way it is operated. Work practices have to be improved. The maintenance strategy has to change. And then you have to deal with the greatest barrier; culture change. So how do you do it? 
This webinar is divided into two parts, this being Part 1 which covers changing the reliability culture.

12. Condition monitoring is not enough - BEMAS 2014

The benefits of condition monitoring are well documented. Sadly, many organizations do not actually achieve all the benefits, and many programs fail because a perceived lack of value. After a quick review of the benefits of condition monitoring and the common technologies, this presentation will go on to explain why so many fail. But rather than focusing on the negative, this presentation will not only provide guidance on how to run a successful program, it will highlight how to utilize the skills of the condition monitoring technicians to achieve even greater benefits to the organization – through reliability improvement.

13. Going beyond condition monitoring - SABIC 2014

This presentation briefly introduces the main benefits of condition monitoring but then explores the issue of how the skills of the condition monitoring team can be applied towards reliability improvement. It then introduces the topic of defect elimination so that additional improvements to reliability can be made.

14. Benefits of condition monitoring and reliability improvement - SABIC 2014

This presentation introduces asset management and summarizes the issue related to managing risk. It then explores the benefits of improving reliability and successfully implementing condition based maintenance. These benefits include an increase in revenue and profitability based on increases in availability and plant capacity, and a reduction in costs. The relationship between reliability improvements and a reduction in the number of safety and environmental incidents is also explained.

15. Why Condition Monitoring is Not Enough

The benefits of condition monitoring are well documented. But does your condition monitoring program actually improve reliability? Most don’t. In this Webinar we will briefly explore the relationship between condition monitoring and reliability and then explain how your program can be enhanced so that it contributes to the reliability improvement initiative.
You will learn:
1) What are the benefits of condition monitoring
2) Why don’t most condition monitoring programs improve reliability
3) How can the condition monitoring group improve reliability
