- Rank asset criticality using Reliability Centered Maintenance approaches and help define proactive, cost-beneficial maintenance strategies and risk mitigation plans
- Facilitate operational event and equipment failure investigations, ensuring root causes are identified, corrective actions are prescribed, and follow-up monitoring confirms effectiveness
- Apply predictive maintenance technologies, including vibration analysis, oil analysis, infrared thermography, ultrasound, and motor current analysis, to assess rotating and moving equipment
- Maintain accurate CMMS records and develop key performance indicators for equipment reliability, including planned/unplanned work ratios, cost metrics, and mean time between failures (MTBF)
