There are cases where breakdowns and failures are not the primary cause of equipment downtime, especially in manufacturing industries. Although RCM is a popular strategy, still many manufacturing industries are not implementing this process and continue to remain stuck in their PM tasks. The main reason why I wrote this book is that doing RCM in a manufacturing plant is a bit different from doing RCM in oil and gas, power plants, and other similar plants because their equipment losses are different, although the process on how RCM is done will be the same. If you worked in a semi-conductor plant, breakdowns and failures are not the main issues, but minor-stoppages, changeover, or quality problems are. You must know the boundary between what RCM can address and what it cannot. RCM will address failures and breakdowns by proposing tasks; it is not designed to address every possible equipment loss. What I am saying is that failures are just a subset of the entire equipment losses. Suppose you have chronic quality problems caused by the equipment; RCM can address some of them, but not all, since Quality problems and defects are much broader than breakdown and failures. I have a detailed explanation of what particular losses RCM can and cannot address in Chapter 3.3.2 of this book. This book is written to help industries implementing RCM on their machines, equipment, and assets. Some of the highlights of this book includes:- 27 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) on RCM- 22 Tips on Implementing RCM- 15 Donts About RCM- Why the RCM Preparatory Stage is Important- Can RCM Address All Equipment Losses?- Actual Case Study on RCM- How to Integrate RCM into the TPM Process- Bonus: RCM Forms I used in Excell Format- The RCM and TPM Crossroads-- Strenghtening the SAE JA1011 Criteria- Addressing MRO Spare Parts after Implementing RCM- How to Determine the Correct Interval for PM, PdM, FFT, and Switching Standby Components- MRO Decision Diagram on Whether to Stock or Not to Stock- D
