Equipment Criticality analysis

what is equipment criticality ? how to determine that the equipment is critical ?
Equipment Criticality is a way of determining the level critical of an equipment in the plant maintenance.  equipment critical is something that when destroyed, modified or misused will cause harmful consequences to the organizations or its goals and missions.
we should determining all assets critical point through criticality analysis, which output from this is used to determine the maintenance strategy (run to failure, preventive, predictive or proactive) and maintenance planning as well.
Many ways we can meet in determining the  crtiticality level. And also many sources that we can make reference to doing critical level analysis. One of them is the matrix criticality.
this time i would like to share simple way of  criticality analysis for plant equipment, the flow step , matrix  and calculation.
Step to do Criticality Analysis :
  1. Download all your function location ; or equipment tag number from your CMMS ( E.g SAP ) fucnloc
  2.  Develop Matrix for standard analysis. recommended index should cover Safety, Production, Cost and MTBF issues. Each index has its own weight. For this case I define safety as the greatest weight followed by MTBF, production and Cost. matrix
  3. do analysis in group ( production people, mechanical, electrical, instrument, hyd. and Lub. Engineer ). review "one by one" equipment base on their function failure impact to safety, MTBF, production and cost impact if they "breakdown" during production schedule.

above explanation is a "simple way" to determine equipment criticality level in your plan. Many and more references we can get, but the most important thing is something that we have started and according to the needs of the organization.

Maintenance Planning

Maintenance Planning for daily abnormality findings. This chapter will talk about maintenance planning in more practical way and simple. Most of source  I got from "Maintenance Planning and Scheduling Handbook" by Richard  D. Palmer. and by my experience as Maintenance planner for more than 5 years . What is Maintenance planning ? and how it impact to daily maintenance jobs ? Maintenance planning for daily abnormality is about how we can arrange our daily machine abnormality in the field, create work package, execution, and job priorities. so that it will affected to our daily maintenance performance, less backlog, cost, loss time, and man power arrangement. in this case, daily maintenance planning should be done by Maintenance planner. for planning principle I suggest you refer to Maintenance planning and scheduling Hand book by Richard D. Palmer. Now, I will share simple way to arrange daily maintenance planning for abnormality findings in the field, followed b...

Autonomous Maintenance ( AM ) ; Step 1 - Cleaning by Inspection

AM is one of TPM pillars, the meaning of AM is Self-Care . Production process operator acts as " First Line Maintenance ",   Machine maintenance is not only the responsibility of maintenance section, but also the production people who run the machine. this part I would like to share how to develop AM  Step 1 - Cleaning by inspection in best practice way. "Cleaning by Inspection" means that operator who run the machine beside doing production control and  parameter setting, they also perform machine inspection that followed by cleaning activities, why ? Deterioration of production and machine efficiency usually cause by less attention to the " Basic Machine Condition " in where basic machine condition consist of contamination, lubrication, tightening, inspection, precision check.  almost root cause of all problem in the machine came from basic machine condition, and of course there is one more thing  that is Man Mistake ( e.g. People not do inspection, ...
