| In these trying economic times, corporations are looking high
and low for savings. One candidate is
the cost of Preventative Maintenance.
It is a time consuming task to review each and every subsystem in a
corporation and validate that all necessary maintenance is being performed,
but excessive maintenance is not. A
Senior Maintenance Engineer defined a methodology to be applied by all system
owners corporate-wide to assess their maintenance costs with the goal of
adjusting the maintenance procedures and schedules to optimize both costs and
effectiveness. His methodology was
quite extensive, and required multiple Brio queries and reports to conduct
this comprehensive assessment. The
initial implementation was a failure because the queries were difficult to
properly configure, transferring the query results from Brio to Excel was
tedious and time consuming, and once the data was in Excel, the analysis was
exacting and subjective. |
| It is important to note that this entire program was written and
revised up to Version 17 by Dr. Serdakowski in less than 80 hours. |
| In this case, the Maintenance Engineer communicated his
methodology to Dr. Serdakowski. The
final product resulted in a 95% labor savings compared against the initial
procedure using conventional Maximo reporting tools (Brio) and manually
transferring the results to Excel. The
version illustrated below has been implemented across the entire corporation
at multiple sites in multiple countries. |
