eliability Excellence for Managers (RxM) teaches the tools and processes required to develop, implement and sustain world-class maintenance and reliability programs.
The class is delivered in four 3-day sessions with a 4 to 8 week interval between sessions. After each session, participants are encouraged to apply what they have learned to reinforce the learning and raise retention. When they return for the following session, participants share their experiences, thereby gaining a deep understanding and ability to sustain what they have learned.

At the conclusion of the class, participants will know how to apply the tools and processes of the same exclusive Life Cycle Engineering Reliability Excellence program that has been successfully implemented by leading companies around the world.
 

CMRP and CPMM Certification

Upon completion of the final session of Reliability Excellence for Managers, students will have the opportunity to become a certified maintenance professional by taking two certification exams:
  Certified Maintenance and Reliability Professional (CMRP) by the Society for Maintenance and Reliability Professionals Certifying Organization (SMRPCO). Visit http://www.smrp.org/ to register prior to your final session. Note that no educational offerings are endorsed by SMRPCO.
  Certified Plant Maintenance Manager (CPMM) by the Association for Facilities Engineering (AFE). Visit http://www.afe.org/certification.html to register prior to your final session.
VibrAnalysis is proud to joint efforts with the Professional College of Engineers and Land Surveyors of Puerto Rico to offer our professional associates the best seminars for your continuing education credits.

Learn How To:

  Describe the value of Reliability Excellence (Rx) in terms of RONA, ROC and OEE
  Define the foundational principles of Rx
  Create a master plan for the implementation of Rx
  Identify the critical success factors in an Rx implementation
  Create strategies to accelerate your Rx

Who Should Attend


Reliability Excellence for Managers
is ideal for managers engaged in process improvement initiatives such as Lean, TPM and Six Sigma:

  General Manager
  Plant Manager
  Corporate Reliability Manager
  Maintenance Managers
  Operations Managers
  Reliability Engineers
 
Rx is not only a maintenance initiative. Including operations and maintenance professionals will aid in establishing the interdepartmental partnerships that produce successful Rx programs. Rx requires a change from a reactive to proactive culture. Including senior management will foster the high level sponsorship necessary to create the systems, measures, behaviors and interdepartmental collaboration that facilitate this culture change.
