5 Tips to Delegate without Fear

Delegation is one of the most important pieces of leadership and organizational development. Delegation means that you are sharing the resources for the betterment of resources. It not only helps in organizational development but it also helps in individual growth of the employees. The thing with delegation is that it requires acceptance and willingness of the personnel to be successful. The other difficulty comes forth when there are individual agendas and egos are at stakes. Some people just have a hard time letting go of the control and power that they have. But overall, delegation is a key trait that helps you bring about the change management.

SMRP18 – Planning and Scheduling with Jeff Shiver

SMRP18 – Planning and Scheduling with Jeff Shiver

Planning and Scheduling with Jeff Shiver

Planning and scheduling is a term often used in the organizations. It might be used together but there is a difference in ‘planning’ and ‘scheduling’. Planning is when you determine what jobs you have to do, develop a procedure to execute the job, assign resources, and then utilize those resources in the best way possible. Only when you have successfully planned a work-order, you can decide when to do it in the scheduling part. So both the processes go together and one can’t be completed successfully without the other. Only scheduling something is not going to help you successfully implement it.

Implementing a CMMS with Jeff O’Brien

When an organization decides to replace or transition all of their storage data onto a CMMS, it is not just about making the work easier and efficient. You can’t just buy a software online and the expect it to solve your maintenance issues and reduce cost. CMMS is just a tool to improve your work order by properly integrating it with your current data systems and then plan your work so that you would not have to make uninformed decisions anymore. You will have all the data to help you make an intelligent decision, save time, and reduce your maintenance cost in the end.

SMRP18 – Precision Alignment with Adam Stredel

SMRP18 – Precision Alignment with Adam Stredel

Precision Alignment with Adam Stredel

Precision alignment plays a vital role in preventing premature failures and keeping the equipment up and running. Precision alignment can be defined as when the rotation with the center-align of the equipment is as collinear as possible. There can be a tolerance in the alignment depending upon the operating conditions. There are different types of tools to measure the misalignment but precision alignment using the laser is becoming trendy in the organizations. They are moving from old tools like straight edge and want to make sure that there is accuracy in the measurement. Even a dial indicator works just fine for alignment.

SOR 375 HALT Versus ALT

SOR 375 HALT Versus ALT

HALT Versus ALT

Abstract

Chris and Adam discussing HALT and ALT. What are these? HALT stands for Highly Accelerated Life Testing. ALT stands for Accelerated Life Testing. They sound very similar. But they are not. HALT is a destructive test regime. In fact, a good HALT plan will involve that product failing many times. This is done by subjecting the product to stresses (vibration, thermal cycling et cetera) well beyond actual operating stresses. Some of the failures this creates will not be relevant. That is, they will simply never occur when the product is used ‘normally.’ But many failures are relevant. And by undertaking HALT, we now have a good idea of which failure mechanisms and modes are likely to occur when it is used normally. And this information is incredibly valuable to a design team. ALT on the other hand starts with a failure mechanism you know about. And in a short period of time, you can predict how long that failure mechanism will cause your product to fail when used normally.

Still confused? Well listen to this podcast.

Leadership plays a vital role in the success of any initiative and contributes to the overall success of an organization.
