During the start of this year 2020, I have been thinking a lot about the need to right my fourth book on maintenance. What title should I give this book and why? What industries need today are Cutting-Edge Maintenance Management Strategies that can be explained in a straightforward and simple manner for industries that they can easily adopt. Today what every industry need is a way on how to survive their competition and remain in business. I started drafting this book on March 16, 2020. We all know about this pandemic on covid 19, which have struck the whole world and affected so many businesses and industries in all countries globally. Many industries have been halted by this pandemic, and many jobs were lost as a result. Honestly speaking, I am not certain when this pandemic will end since as of this writing, the number of cases is increasing exponentially and vaccine is still unavailable. It is my hope that once everything goes back to normal, leaders in industries can learn from experience to manage the risks involved and sustain their assets more intelligently.When I first published my first book on World Class Maintenance Management the 12 Disciplines in 2009, I thought I have written everything there is to know in order to achieve a level of World-Class Maintenance Management. Through the years, what I learned so far is that having a World Class Maintenance is very different from achieving a World Class Reliability in the organization. There are also many developments and changes today in maintenance that we need to adopt. The reason for writing this book is not only for the readers to understand the new trends in maintenance, but also for them to understand the reason for using them. These strategies must be adopted by industries for their own advantage because in today's phase, the law of the jungle applies and that is, survive now or be left behind.Cutting-Edge Maintenance Management Strategies: This book also a sequel deals with the different cutting-edge maintenance strategies that must be adopted by industries in order for them to survive their competition. In industries today, the law of the jungle applies, survive of be left behind. Learn how these strategies can link together in building a solid maintenance structure in the plant. Finally understand Learn these cutting-edge maintenance strategies in helping build the reliability culture for industries.

One of the biggest missing link in reliability is the separation between operators and maintenance. This book had to be written for industries to realize what they are missing. For as long as operators and maintenance in industries remain a separate function, Industries will continue to be reactive. My goal is to reach out to industries and convince them that these two cannot co-exists without each other and that it is time for both operators and maintenance to finally work together to improve not only the productivity but also the Reliability of their equipment and assets. Separating these two only creates feuds and friction between them. When I sometimes think about this, all I can say is that the problems in industries remain deeply rooted in their organization, from how their organization was structured, their policies, procedures they wrote, and the rules they imposed upon their employees. This book may sound contradictory to many of the policies industries imposed, and all I ask from the reader is to finish reading this book so that the reader can understand my reasons behind the contradiction. Industries hire me for one reason to tell them what is wrong with them on how they do maintenance and what can be done about it. - Why Operators are Important in the Reliability Strategy - What Maintenance is all About - Survey on Top Problems of Preventive Maintenance Revisited 2018 - Why Preventive Maintenance cannot prevent "ALL" failures - Why Safety cannot be First - Operations and Maintenance - Will the Feud Ever Stop? - Reducing Human Errors in Maintenance - Why Operations and Maintenance Went their Own Separate Ways - Understanding Human Errors - The Common Thing RCM and TPM Both Believes - Strengthening Operator and Maintenance Partnership - Detailed Guidelines in Implementing 7 Steps of Autonomous Maintenance - Tips in Implementing Autonomous Maintenance - Detailed Guidelines in Implementing the 4 Phases of Planned Maintenance - Tips in Implementing Planned Maintenance - Why Do Most RCM Initiatives Fail? - Detailed Guidelines in Implementing RCM Analysis for Equipment - Tips in Implementing the RCM Analysis - Detailed Guidelines on How to Perform Root Cause Failure Analysis Probe - Tips in Implementing Root Cause Failure Analysis - Guidelines in Conducting Equipment FMEA/FMECA - Tips in Implementing FMEA/FMECA - Small Problems matters most - The Biggest Missing Link in Any Reliability Strategy - Changing the Image of the Maintenance Function - It Will Definitely Take Time for Industries to Accept - The Separation Needs to End, and a Partnership Needs to Begin - Managing Human Errors in Maintenance - How to Strengthen Operators and Maintenance Partnership - Tips and Guidelines in Implementing TPM Focused Improvement and many more. In my cases, operators remain switch flickers and are frequently provided with a job description to operate the equipment. This book explains that operators are always the first line of defense on any equipment-related failures and breakdowns since they are the closest people that will experience the failure first before maintenance. Operators need to understand the earliest symptoms of failures. One sentiment I often hear from maintenance is that if breakdowns happen simultaneously, what they think is that they are undermanned. I do not believe so. The main reason for this mindset is simple, operators are not involved in the shared responsibility of doing maintenance. Operators are important in any reliability and maintenance strategy because operators are the first line of defense on any failure that can occur on the equipment since they are the people closest to the equipment when the failure occurs and not maintenance.

This book had to be written for industries to realize what they are missing. My goal is to reach out to industries and convince them that these two cannot co-exists without each other and that it is time for both operators and maintenance to finally work together in improving not only the productivity but as well as improving the reliability of their equipment and assets. Separating these two only creates feud and friction between them. When I sometimes think about this, all I can say is that the problems on industries remain deeply rooted down in their organization, from how their organizational was structured, their policies, procedures they wrote and the rules they imposed upon their employees. This book may sound contradicting to many of the policies industries imposed and all I ask from the reader is to finish reading this book so that the reader can understand my reasons behind the contradiction. Industries hire me for one reason, so that I can tell them what is wrong with them on how they do maintenance and what can be done about it. In today's industry's norm, maintenance are often provided with blinkers or blinders. This is an eye patch they place on the eyes of the horse so that the horse cannot see the rear or what is on their side and can only see the front. The moment they were hired, they wore this blinkers so that maintenance can only see the things you learned from the University of Hard Knocks. When it is time for them to retire, then this blinders needs to be pass on to the new maintenance generation and that is how it goes for industries It is time to remove those blinkers/blinders so that maintenance can see at a wider range and found out what they are missing at all. There are many things that we need to change so that industries can move forward and remain in business.This book is composed of twelve chapters in which I include a quiz at the end of each chapter for the reader to answer in order to grasp the level of understanding they got from reading each chapter. Chapter 1 discuss about why operators are important on any maintenance and reliability strategy. As our equipment continues to be upgraded and automated, we need operators who are not only switch flickers and operate the equipment but what we need are operators who can sense if something is wrong with their equipment at its earliest possible stage. Dealing a small problem is less expensive than waiting for the failure to come. The breakdowns and failures we experience on our equipment are just merely an accumulation of small problems that had been neglected so far. The problem was that when these problems were small nothing had been done to correct them until another small problem emerge and another and another in which finally the equipment can no longer bear which ended up in a breakdown. And when the machine fails, then that is the time we react. Chapter 2 explains what maintenance is all about. What it can do and what it cannot do. Maintenance is simple, but often times industries complicate matters. For example Preventive Maintenance is one of the strategies on maintenance. This is a very good strategy indeed as its role is to extend the lifespan of the asset instead of doing maintenance on a reactive or crash basis but the problem is that most industries misuse, abuse or overuse this strategy ending up in more breakdowns instead of the other way around. Chapter 3 discuss about human errors. This is a very important topic as most of the world's lists industrial incidents, I mean almost all industrial accidents that happened all around the world was mostly a matter of maintenance and human errors. Although technically speaking, there is indeed no way to eliminated human errors since this is part of being human. Human errors has many origins and even the best and smartest employee we have can commit the worst errors and mistakes but the good news is that human errors can be manage more intelligently.
