PROGRAM'S BACKGROUND

Recent competitive trends have been pushing manufacturing executives to reconsider the impact and importance of increasing equipment availability and utilization, increasing maintenance productivity and resource utilization, and increasing quality and responsiveness of maintenance services in achieving World Class Status to meet world competition. This program will show you how to initiate and sustain a process of maintenance performance improvement; a process in which maintenance is recognized as critical to the overall production strategy by which your plant provides the product to the customer at a quality he wants and a price they are willing to pay.

This comprehensive program will open your eyes to World Class Maintenance practices and show you how to initiate and sustain a process of maintenance performance improvement in today’s market.
