Philip remains a determined problem solver and team builder and does so with International Cultural awareness and has lived abroad for much of his career. Philip is qualified as an Accredited Root Cause Analysis Instructor, Accident Investigator & Facilitator of Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and a Champion of the Apollo Root Cause Analysis Methodology.
Philip can be reached through Arms Reliability at psage@armsreliability.com or on linkedin at https://www.linkedin.com/in/philipsagecmrp/

As a SAP (SME) he has been called upon to perform design audits for large corporate SAP projects, and helped other teams achieve reliability centric Operational Excellence using SAP PM. Today he supports the delivery of optimized (RCM) Reliability Centred Maintenance Strategy delivery into SAP. He has served many posts. This includes 3 years in Northern China  as the design architect of a large green field manufacturing plant using PM, MM, HR, QM and PP and 2 years supporting Asian SAP users. Along the way Philip has trained in multiple languages and learning cultures. He has designed training that works. He has enabled the maintenance planner with the detailed use of (DMS) Document Management System and other methods.

This high precision planning or (HPP) includes using SAP MM for the complete materials management with the kit up function interacting with graphical scheduling and the SAP (HR) for PM individual scheduling and craft qualification tracking. Philip has advanced the use of SAP including deploying machine performance prognostic health monitoring with a novel performance measurement called the Reliability Performance Index or (Rpk). Philip has enabled SAP based Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA) using SAP automation to initiate a RCFA analysis and track the open action items. Philip has designed novel Asset Health Monitoring scorecards using SAP (PM)and SAP (QM) that included predictive testing and inspection results recording against national and international standards. 

Philip is a co-author of the book, The MAXIMO Manager’s Guide to Business Performance Management.

Philip is a co-host of the podcast Speaking of Reliability.

Philip’s author archive lists contributions of articles and episodes.
