Asset Performance Management and Predictive Maintenance
This in-depth course develops directly applicable capability in Asset Performance Management and Predictive Maintenance. It connects APM Strategy and Asset Criticality, Condition and Process Data Architecture, and Predictive Models and Alerts to the decisions, controls, and activities participants need to perform in their workplace.
Overview
Practical learning for workplace transfer.
This in-depth course develops directly applicable capability in Asset Performance Management and Predictive Maintenance. It connects APM Strategy and Asset Criticality, Condition and Process Data Architecture, and Predictive Models and Alerts to the decisions, controls, and activities participants need to perform in their workplace. The five-module curriculum progresses toward Predictive Maintenance Case, using evidence, scenarios, and work products appropriate to the subject.
Prerequisites
Relevant workplace familiarity is recommended; exact technical prerequisites can be adapted to the participant group.
Objectives
- Analyze apm strategy and asset criticality, including connect business consequences, failure modes, and maintenance tactics.
- Configure or structure condition and process data architecture, including vibration, oil, ultrasound, thermography, electrical, process, and historian data.
- Evaluate predictive models and alerts, including thresholds, anomaly detection, classification, and remaining-life concepts.
- Manage decision workflow and value, including alert triage, diagnosis, confirmation, planning, and feedback.
- Apply predictive maintenance case, including select assets and failure modes for monitoring.
Target audience
- Professionals responsible for this subject area
- Managers, supervisors, and team leaders
- Analysts, specialists, engineers, or coordinators working with the relevant processes
- Project, implementation, assurance, or improvement team members
- Professionals preparing for broader responsibilities in this field
