Chris and Fred discuss how reliability starts at the top of every organization. And by that, we mean … leadership. What does that mean? How can the CEO be more important for reliability performance than the reliability engineer with decades of experience and post-graduate qualifications?

The Leadership Connection Host, Doug Plucknette, interviews reliability leader Tim Goshert in Episode 1 of this series. Tim has 40 years of experience working in processing industries.
It takes a village to produce a design from concept to realization. Everyone along the way seems to think of risk a little bit differently. Designers are both directly and indirectly involved with all these risk management methods, but it’s important to understand who is looking at what type of information. Why? Because of communication. One group might think that risk management is covered in the way they’re thinking it should be, when in actuality it’s not.
This podcast will review risk management of other functional groups and how a designer’s risk affects them.
As a designer you have an important job and a unique perspective to analyze risk of your design and a responsibility to communicate it so everyone can help reduce risks.
Welcome back to another episode of the Technology Innovations series of the Maintenance Disrupted Podcast where we look at the people and technology fueling Industry 4.0. In this episode, Blair Fraser sit down with Dane Boers of Modla to talk about the digitization of asset knowledge.
In this episode, we discuss the typical approach to answer questions like what should my budget be next year or what predictive monitoring technology should I utilize. It doesn’t take long to realize that most of the questions get answered from the foundation knowledge that exists in exercises like FMECA and RCM but more concerning is the amount of information in people’s head, SME knowledge. But how do you get it out? How do you have repeatability in your answers? Take a listen to this new approach to answering questions using asset modeling.

Learn what it is and how it can help us get a handle on that big failure:

DFR has been a term in and out of fashion for some time—one of the many DFX type programs. DFR, unlike some of the other Design for X programs, has to exist within the overall culture of the organization to be successful. The premise that design occurs at the point of decision implies that each design may have the appropriate information to consider the decision’s impact on reliability performance properly.
