QUESTION 1

(a) The Strategic Corrosion Management Audit is an Assessment, Review and Presentation package tailored specifically to a company needs and also considers the current ‘external corrosion management philosophy'. An effective audit can help to minimise maintenance cost reductions of 5% to 85% over the life-time of a plant. Briefly elaborate on the steps for a Strategic Corrosion Management

(b) Many companies often experience difficulties with quality control, production levels, and schedule adherence due to their equipment not being properly maintained. Organizations are moving towards and adopting Total Productive Maintenance practices in order to maximize their maintenance effectiveness, productivity and equipment uptime. Discuss the eight pillars of Total productive Maintenance

(c) Operator Involved Maintenance (OIM) is a standard industrial approach aimed at providing operators better understanding or operations in an industrial setting to prevent problems, create a safe work environment and free-up dedicated maintenance resources. Discuss the different types of responsibilities of operators in an industrial setting

QUESTION 2

(a) Many organizations consider the maintenance function as a critical operational and decision making area that can guarantee plant availability and reliability. A Cost Effective Maintenance program ensures longer plant life span as well as promotes safe working environment for all stakeholders. Discuss the key stages in the setting up a maintenance program in an organization.

(b) Many practitioners agree that maintenance activities involve risks since a number of defects including equipment malfunction, explosion and fire originate during such activity. Briefly elaborate on key success factors in the prevention of risks during maintenance operations

QUESTION 3

(a) The Bath-Tub curve is an important tool for understanding the reliability of engineering components in many different applications. It is viewed as a hazard function that describes the variation of failure rate of components during their life time. Explain the phases of the Bath-Tub curve

(b) Reliability Centered Maintenance is one of the strategies used for failure management and is related to condition of equipment. This strategy relies on the capability of maintenance personnel to detect potential failures in advance in order to take appropriate actions. A common curve that illustrates the behaviour of equipment as it approaches failure is the P-F curve. Elaborate with the aid of a diagram on the use of a P-F curve to improve condition of equipment and safety in a work environment.
