The Surprising Answer!
True or False? Can RCM Be Applied at Any Stage in an Asset’s Lifecycle.
In this video, I tackle a common question: Can Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) be applied at any point in an asset’s lifecycle? The answer is True! While it’s best to start RCM as early as possible—ideally at the design stage—many successful RCM programs around the world have been implemented long after systems were fielded.
Because RCM is a zero-based process, applying it to legacy equipment offers a chance to reevaluate years of tradition and habits, ensuring that the most safe and cost-effective Failure Management Strategies are in place. RCM’s flexibility means it can deliver great results at any point in an asset’s lifecycle.
