PEMAC Congratulates the latest MMP Module 8 Graduates

Earlier this  year, PEMAC Asset Management Association of Canada’s Nicolle Guillen and Mbo Mtetwa joined Northern Lakes College’s MMP Capstone Instructors Susan Lubell and Martha Myers, for a series of MMP Capstone presentations, celebrating the hard work and achievements of Northern Lakes College's latest graduating class of the Maintenance Management Professional (MMP) program. 

Bow Valley College in Calgary, Alberta; Northern College in Timmins, Ontario; Humber College in Toronto, Ontario; and British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) also had groups of practitioners successfully complete their MMP Module 8 Capstone projects earlier this year. 

Developed and maintained by PEMAC, the MMP education program offers industry professionals the opportunity to gain a professional designation to advance in their careers in maintenance management. Practitioners from across all industries in Canada and around the world can access the courses from a variety of teaching institutions across Canada, that deliver the program live online, face to face, and through private offerings. 

Over a series of online presentations, over eighty (80) MMP Module 8 participants showcased their final capstone projects which demonstrated how leveraging key learnings from the seven modules of the MMP education program can lead to operational excellence and business success, in the form of tangible improvements to business and operational practices.  

The Capstone projects focused on different business drivers relating to the participants' respective organizations. All the projects were financially justified and successfully applied the key objectives related to talent, reliability, project and work management principles, while also incorporating digital technology principles.

The combined financial and cost/benefit analysis justifications for all the projects exceeded well over $100s of millions in annual improvements related to factors such as increased revenue and operational capacity, decreased downtime and operational costs, increased economic life of assets and improved talent performance. Some projects even highlighted safety, and proposed improvements that would decrease risks and improve overall safety at their organization. 

PEMAC congratulates all of these recent graduates for their hard work in completing the final course and the overall program, and earning the globally recognized “MMP” designation. The association encourages them to continue to connect, learn and contribute to their organizations and the learning of others in the maintenance management community through their newly acquired knowledge and skills.
