As we compare our association to others around the world we realize that PEMAC has set the bar high with the MMP Program in terms of commitment required to achieve the MMP professional designation.
ISO 5500X Standards Will Be Available for Purchase Soon
The three new Standards: ISO 55000 / 55001 / 55002 have all been approved by the international community. It was announced by the chairperson at the IMC conference in December that the standard documents should be published this month, January 2014.
On behalf of the Board of Directors, each staff member and the many active PEMAC volunteers I would like to express that it has been a great pleasure for us to serve the association and its members in 2013 and to work with a growing list of partner organizations.
Congratulations to the following individuals who were elected (or re-elected) to the PEMAC Board of Directors at the AGM which was held on November 17th, 2013 at the Sheraton Cavalier in Calgary, AB.
When we say we are about "maintenance and asset management" are we talking about two different, but interrelated, things? We should be.
Maintenance: All actions intended to retain an item in, or restore it to, a state in which it can perform a required function (Asset Management Council)
We have never stopped promoting "UPTIME: Strategies for Excellence in Maintenance Management" as the best reference book for those undertaking a journey towards excellence in maintenance, reliability and asset management.
At its December 1st Annual General Meeting the PEMAC members voted to accept the nominations of the currently serving board members whose positions had expired and expanded membership on the Board by four people.
We have over 900 members at October 10, 2012. Here they are grouped by region (the mapping program decided the regions arbitrarily) with some outliers in very interesting places!
