Multi-week Scheduling: The Key to Implementing a Sustainable Planned Work Culture in Today’s Industry 4.0 Era

Presenter: Jean Charbonneau
President, CiM Maintenance INC
Description:
Everybody is talking about Industry 4.0 cool technologies, but today, more than 50% of asset-intensive companies are still more than 50% reactive, This workshop covers the fundamental elements required to implement a sustainable planned work culture by implementing an efficient multi-week scheduling process using Industry 4.0 digital technology, which must be explicitly designed to ensure individuals are playing their required roles flawlessly in order for the processes to provide the expected value. This workshop will cover asset performance and maintenance excellence—IPSPEC planned maintenance work execution cycle; implementing an effective multi-week scheduling process using Industry 4.0 technologies to ensure the work required to prevent equipment failures is always done on-time in a planned mode; developing strong teamwork between maintenance and operations with the common goal of maximizing equipment uptime and production output; maximizing the value for multi-site companies by standardizing processes and people roles across the organization; implementing an organization-wide long-term sustainment program to provide permanent value; and measuring and sustaining the value across the organization.

Curing the “Everything is Urgent” Production Syndrome in Today’s Industry 4.0 Era!

Presenter: Jean Charbonneau
President, CiM Maintenance INC
Description:
In our survey, more than 80% responded that most requests by Production are always urgent and have to be done right away. When everything is urgent, then there is no priority, and it is the wheel that squeaks the loudest that gets the grease, and the organization operates in a reactive mode. This presentation identifies the potential cause of the syndrome and explores different methodologies that can be implemented to have production and maintenance work as a single team to ensure the right work is performed at the right time to prevent equipment breakdown and maximize production output - Fundamental causes of the syndrome - Potential remedies - Setting the vision at the Plant manager level - Restoring the confidence between maintenance and production with a multi-week schedule outlook. - Making an agreement between maintenance and production on when the work must be done to prevent equipment failure that is clearly communicated to everybody involved. - Identifying Potential failure intervals and risks of failure based on AI predictive analytics, or experience. - Ensuring the work required to prevent equipment failure is always done on time. - Measuring compliance of the maintenance and production time execution agreements, in order to maximize trust and teamwork between maintenance and production Key Takeaways: - Having Maintenance and production working as a single team is the foundation to eliminate the “Everything is urgent, syndrome”. - An effective multi-week scheduling process is the fundamental communication element to bind the team together. - Maintenance must assure production that all work required to prevent equipment failure will be performed on time as agreed. - Production must have enough advance notice to release the equipment to perform the maintenance plan on time.
