He was intensely working to connect people who might be able to help each other. He was interested in making sure those around him were not simply passively supportive of a reliability-based maintenance strategy. They had to be fully committed to a reliability-based way of life!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003eI eventually made it to the Air Force base where Ramesh worked, and I noticed something completely different about the way maintenance was regarded. I could not detect the usual sense of maintenance as a \"necessary evil\" or a \"cost center,\" even from the base's leadership. Instead, maintenance was viewed as an important enabler of the mission. Reliability was the context and aim of the maintenance program.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003eSince that day almost ten years ago, I have been privileged to work with Ramesh, who taught me that one can only gain through contributing.

That is the thread of sharing. You would expect best practice organizations to be learning organizations, like knowledge sponges absorbing every bit of beneficial information they can find. Instead, it is almost the exact opposite. These organizations share and teach everything they know and everything they have learned; somehow this contributes to their getting better and improving even more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003eBefore this book appeared, only those who worked and volunteered with Ramesh or those who heard him at an industry conference, had been touched by his work.

An item or asset, as defined here, could be an electronic or mechanical hardware component or device, a software product, or a manufacturing system or process. The objective of performing better maintenance and improving reliability of assets in an organization is to ensure that the assets are available to perform required functions, when needed, in a cost-effective manner. The performance of an asset is based on three factors (see Figure 1.1):\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; list-style: none; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003e    \u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eInherent reliability — how it was designed?\u003c\/li\u003e    \u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eOperating environment — how it will be operated?\u003c\/li\u003e    \u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eMaintenance plan — how it will be maintained?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003eUsually assets are designed with a certain level of reliability. This designed-in (or built-in) reliability is the result of individual components’ reliability and the way they are configured. This level of reliability is called inherent reliability. We cannot change or improve the reliability of an asset after it has been installed without replacing or modifying it with better and improved components (with the exception of redesigning it).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003eThe second factor, the operating environment of the asset, considers operating conditions under which the asset has to operate along with the operator’s skills. Several studies have indicated that 40% or more failures are the result of operational errors. Organizations need to ensure that operators are appropriately educated and trained in operating these assets without causing operational errors that lead to failures. In fact, operators should be the first line of defense in monitoring the asset’s performance and any abnormal conditions, and in initiating timely corrective actions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003eThe third factor is a maintenance plan that defines how the asset will be maintained. The objective of a good maintenance plan is to sustain asset reliability and to improve its availability. The plan should include the necessary maintenance and service-type actions needed to detect potential failures before they lead to unscheduled downtime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); line-height: 16px;\"\u003eSo what do best practices have to do with these principles of maintenance and reliability? Throughout the many years of the maintenance and reliability industry, good and bad practices have been identified. These good and bad practices have been briefed at international conferences, discussed in person and over the airwaves, and written in magazines, books, websites, and blogs. The best of these practices are now becoming more accepted and published throughout local, national, and international industries, becoming the benchmarks that companies seek to achieve. Throughout this book, we will be discussing these factors and what best practices can be used to improve asset performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e Introducing Best Practices\u003cul style=\"margin: 5px 0px 5px 10px;
