Day 1-2 by John Mitchell, Author, Physical Asset Management Handbook
Day 3 by Winston Ledet, Author, Don't Just Fix It, Improve It!
April 24-26, 2012 or November 13-15, 2012
A large and growing number of top-performing companies are implementing Operational Excellence initiatives to drive broad improvements in safety, regulatory compliance, operating effectiveness and business results across the entire organization. Operational Excellence is not a "program of the month" but rather an essential long-term, overall concept for manufacturers to gain and sustain the competitive performance that is mandatory for continuing success in today's global markets. But what is Operational Excellence? How does it apply to maintenance reliability activities and professionals? And how does it fit with existing programs and specifications, such as PAS 55 and the ISO/NP 55000 Asset Management Standard? The first two days of this workshop answer all these questions and many more. It defines Operational Excellence, narrows the concept to focus on its application to physical assets and demonstrates how maintenance reliability principles and professionals provide essential business value within Operational Excellence. The workshop details the components and implementation of a comprehensive Operational Excellence program for physical assets.
On the third day of this event, learn how you can get your organization to be more proactive and deliver sustainable business performance. The Manufacturing Game® workshop is a catalyst that cultivates organizational characteristics promoting proactive growth and bottom-line results. In this hands-on, interactive experience, participants learn the importance of cross-communication between departments. They strategize with other participants and deal with solving everyday problems. They make improvements in reliability and throughput while still meeting customer demands in a safe and environmentally sound world.
