Our Services – RCM Training
RCM Awareness Session
The RCM awareness presentation is for anybody who needs to support or be aware of an RCM project, without being closely involved in it.
The presentation provides an overview of the process, the principles behind it, the resources and support required to carry out RCM properly, and some examples of successful (and unsuccessful) implementations.
This presentation can be carried out on site or remotely.
It can be carried out for any number of delegates.
It typically takes 2 hours with additional time for questions and discussion.
RCM Introductory Course
The 2.5 or 3-day introductory course is for team members who take part in RCM analyses. It covers the process in more detail including why each of the questions are asked and how to answer each question correctly.
It includes exercises and a classroom case study to reinforce the points made in the training lectures by applying the process in practice
This course can be carried out on-site, or remotely. The remote course can be carried out as a ‘traditional’ training course, for between 4 and 16 delegates, or a hybrid arrangement that uses a series of training videos.
The hybrid arrangement can be carried out for just one person.
RCM Facilitators Course
The 10-day facilitators course is for those aiming to become RCM leaders within their organisation, and for whom the RCM process needs to be second nature.
In addition to reinforcement and greater detail on the RCM process itself, the course covers related reliability theory and principles.
It also covers the broader organisational, team management, project management and implementation requirements to ensure an RCM project delivers business improvement.
The course includes a zero-based case study on an item of real equipment. The facilitators course is carried out for between 4 and 12 delegates. This course would normally be carried out on-site.
Our Services – RCM Consulting, Facilitation and Hybrid Training
RCM Hybrid Training
The RCM Introductory course can be carried out as a hybrid course. A series of training videos allow the delegate to cover the theory whenever and wherever they wish, and at their own pace.
If necessary, they can even watch the videos multiple times.
However, this training is not carried out without any involvement or engagement from Reliability Management.
The first stage of the hybrid course is a remote discussion between the delegate and tutor. The delegates then watches the videos.
After the videos have been completed, the case study is covered in stages with support from our consultant.
The course finishes with a test, so the delegate can test their knowledge and understanding.
RCM Facilitation
The RCM facilitator is responsible for the correct application of the RCM process and the implementation of the results.
The facilitator is often the RCM champion – or one of them – in the organisation.
This is a critical role for the success of an RCM project. Some organisations train their own facilitators, and for a large number or projects this is usually the recommended approach. Other organisations prefer to bring in an external RCM expert to facilitate.
Reliability Management has extensive experience facilitating the application of RCM with teams of client personnel.
Note that we have facilitated two separate award-winning projects for two different clients, and our case studies provide many examples of successful projects we have facilitated.
