There are 3 things you must to do to create world-class reliability and maintenance success in your operation:

  1. Prevent stress, fatigue and contamination of your equipment parts — your machines only stop when their parts fail. The health of your equipment parts fatally impacts any chance you have for operational excellence
  2. Control work quality and task accuracy throughout the engineering asset management life-cycle to protect against ‘human factors’ and human error. Mistakes, misunderstanding and ignorance by people during design, manufacture, selection, storage, installation, operation, and maintenance cause 70 to 80 percent of your plant availability and reliability problems
  3. Build life-cycle asset management processes full of defect elimination and zero breakdown strategies. A successful life-cycle asset management system naturally produces the first two requirements.

Take the path straight to world class plant and equipment reliability. Plant Wellness Way Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) makes world class reliability formulaic—build and use a Plant Wellness Way EAM system-of-reliability and you get world class reliable operating assets. Follow Plant Wellness Way EAM (PWWEAM) to design, build, and embed a life-cycle-long, business-wide system for world class asset reliability.

How a Plant Wellness Way EAM System Delivers New Profits Now Lost to Your Business

The image below shows the business effects on an Enterprise that Adopts the Plant Wellness Way. It explains what the Plant Wellness Way does to an operation to recover lost and wasted operating profits.
Your Company produces products that are meant to be of a set quality, but occasionally there are errors that need to be fixed, or money is wasted on needless quality. If you have too many mistakes, problems and overspends you rapidly lose your operating profit.

The errors, wastes and excesses you see in your business result from your business system design. The late quality guru, W. Edwards Deming saw the problem. He said, “Your business is perfectly designed to deliver the results that you get.”

Deming was warning us that all your business, operational and maintenance problems are caused by the design of your company systems and its work processes.

We have known about the problem of designed-in business process waste, errors and loss since the 1920’s when Walter A. Shewhart of the Bell Telephone Laboratories developed the first work process control tools. W. Edwards Deming learnt from Shewhart and explained it to Japanese managers and engineers in 1950. The Japanese managers and engineers listened and grew to understand what Deming meant. They became world class quality leaders and created highly profitable companies. Most of the rest of the world did not both to heed Deming’s simple message!

The dark, outside distribution curve in the Enterprise Wellness Way image represents the current range of outputs from your operation. Dead center is optimal quality and cost—only what you need; nothing more and nothing less. To the right is money spent unnecessarily on quality you did not need. Like using a pressure coded welder for welding a pipe support bracket, or using a Licensed Technician to do laboring work—you just spent triple the money that you should have spent! To the left is poor and bad quality—all the scrap and rework you now waste. Any outlier results way out on the sides are complete madness.

 

 

What the “Enterprise Wellness Way” does for your Company, and a Plant Wellness Way EAM system does for your Operation and Maintenance, is to drive performance closer and closer to the optimal. Rapidly, your engineering, supply chains, production, warehousing, and maintenance processes become ideal. The operational performance becomes the red distribution curve hugging the Optimal result. Because all your production is done excellently, the moneys that were wasted and lost to problems, troubles and excesses turn immediately into new operating profits.

The closer you get to Optimal the more operating profit you must make. There are huge ‘hidden’ fortunes waiting for you to collect! Using a Plant Wellness Way EAM system quickly increases operational profit, slashes maintenance costs, stops work quality problems and gets much more production from your operation. The PWWEAM secret is in how it gets the correct world class business, operational and reliability processes into your company so your operations are naturally highly productive and highly profitable.
