A letter to your CEO and Plant Manager

A letter to your CEO and Plant Manager

Most organisations are built for PROFIT.?

So if you’re working in an asset intensive industry, chances are...?

Your CEO or Plant Manager will be ?

focused on—?

→Reducing Costs?

→Improving Safety?

→Improving Revenue?

→Improving Production? ?


Maintenance is the LEAST of their priorities.?

Right??

They would never think of maintenance as a source of profit.?

On the contrary, they probably think?maintenance is simply—?

A cost sink.?

A headache. ?

A necessary evil.??

And I can’t blame them.??

Many organisations invest HUGE sums of money in maintenance but fail. They gain little to no returns. Little improvements to reliability.?

It’s a common story. ? A common problem.?

But here’s the dilemma…??

If your CEO wants your organisation to continue being profitable for years to come…?

They simply can’t neglect maintenance.?

Because achieving a reliable plant is KEY to your organisation’s long-term success.?

Remember… a Reliable Plant is a Safe Plant is a Cost-Effective Plant.?

If you can achieve reliability, you can…?

1. Reduce downtime by up to 90%?

2. Reduce your total operating cost by 3 to 4% (sometimes way more).?

3. Improve maintenance productivity by at least 35%.?

?

Which is MASSIVE for asset-intensive organisations… whether that’s a big mine, an oil and gas refinery, a chemical processing plant, etc…?

Not to mention…??

Neglecting maintenance significantly increases your chances of plant and equipment shutdowns.?

Which will DEFINITELY hurt your bottom line.?

So that begs the question:??

How do you achieve a reliable plant??

And more importantly…?

How do you make sure your investments are not sunk costs?? ? In my experience the “Best of the Best” get to World Class Reliability by doing the basics really well. And that’s not just my experience, industry research shows the same.??

Seems easy enough.? ?

But difficult to implement.?

That’s why we created a simple, 4 step framework:? ?



This framework focuses on building up your team to implement the basics. With quick ROIs for smaller investments instead of huge upfront investments for benefits in the distant future.?

No expensive technology needed.? No expensive contractors needed.?

No expensive RCA studies needed.?

If you want to increase your plant’s reliability so you significantly reduce your total operating costs and increase your uptime…?

Then let’s discuss how we can train your team so that they become capable of doing this for you.?

Leadership and Culture absolutely spot on! Getting change to happen and then making it stick, to many people talk a good game but fail to back it up with actions.
