QDD 026 Solving Symptoms Instead of Causes?

QDD 026 Solving Symptoms Instead of Causes?

Solving Symptoms Instead of Causes?

How we describe and approach the issues we need to solve can affect how we react to them.  We know we’re supposed to be solving for root causes. But are we, instead, really just addressing symptoms? Are we celebrating the quick fix and then moving on without addressing the root of our issue?

“If you define the problem correctly, you almost have the solution.” – Steve Jobs

Recognize the common mishaps of us solving symptoms instead of really getting to the causes. And, clearly describe our problem in two parts (statement and description of facts) to be confident that we’re moving toward solving the causes.

What role does ‘wishful thinking’ play in the interpretation of reliability test results? Hopefully, none. A well-designed test will likely provide meaningful results. You and your team may not like the results, yet the results will be clear. [Read more…]

282- The Low Hanging Fruit of Lubrication Improvements with Devin Jarrett

282- The Low Hanging Fruit of Lubrication Improvements with Devin Jarrett

The Low Hanging Fruit of Lubrication Improvements with Devin Jarrett

It’s my pleasure to welcome Devin Jared to the podcast. Devin is a success manager at Noria.

He has worked as a processes guy, made a transition over into the technical team, managing projects, then I stepped into the technical consultant role, then now a success manager. He officiates football on the side as a hobby.

In this episode we covered:

  • Where do we start with lubrication?
  • What are some of those low hanging fruits you typically see that we need to address in organizations?
  • Would you consider filtering oil before putting it in equipment low hanging or is that a little bit more advanced?

QDD 025 Do you have SMART ACORN objectives?

Do you have SMART ACORN objectives?

Objectives are goalposts of what it is we’re trying to accomplish. Though they’re only a part of planning a project, if we don’t have well-defined and clear objectives, it could lead to us not having the stellar project results we want. Our objective should be a SMART ACORN.  We review these two, complementing acronyms as ways to check that we’re setting up our project for success.

MD 185 Are We Overcomplicating Asset Criticality? With Paul Daoust from SCIO Asset Management

MD 185 Are We Overcomplicating Asset Criticality? With Paul Daoust from SCIO Asset Management

Are we doing a disservice when talking about asset criticality to include anything other than the consequence? In this week’s podcast, we welcome Paul Daoust from SCIO Asset Management to discuss how we always use asset criticality with another variable, and because of this, the use of likelihood of failure in the asset criticality process could be added work for very little value.
