RCM Myth Busting: Truth Revealed!
True or False? Do Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) Working Group members guess during an RCM analysis?
In this video, I dive into a common misconception about Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) analysis. While it is often wrongly believed that RCM Working Group members take guesses, the reality is quite different. Thanks to their in-depth knowledge of the equipment and its operating environment, they are well-prepared to answer most of the questions posed by the RCM Facilitator.
But what happens when a Working Group doesn’t have all the answers? The RCM Facilitator is trained to recognize when additional information is needed. When that happens, the Failure Mode is put on hold, and an action item is raised to ensure the right data is gathered before proceeding.
Watch this video to learn how RCM analysis is designed to prioritize thoroughness, ensuring that every decision is based on solid information.
