Advanced Maintenance Planning and Scheduling

Without proper planning and scheduling, maintenance is uncoordinated, costly and ineffective, leaving the maintenance team to fail in meeting deadlines. These failures will cause constant problems for the Operations department, who will become increasingly reluctant to release equipment in the future. This can directly contribute to a higher maintenance cost, inadequate maintenance execution and rapidly deteriorating plant integrity.

Salvo Global’s 5-day online course is designed to build advanced competency in maintenance planning and scheduling. The techniques, that participants will learn in this course, will allow for effective planning and scheduling of maintenance resources. The course covers all the fundamentals and advanced methods and applications, that a suitably qualified professional would use in carrying out fully functional plant maintenance. In summary, the course provides a step-by-step practical guide to best practices of maintenance planning and scheduling, that will essentially reduce maintenance costs and deliver maximum business benefits.

This training course is based on 35 years of real-life industrial experience of the trainer in maintenance planning and scheduling.
