Publisher's Summary
This is a book for senior executives who lead organizations with a heavy dependence on physical assets such as fixed plant, factories, facilities, mobile equipment, vehicle fleets, pipelines, and other linear assets. You don't need to be expert in asset reliability or how to maintain those assets, but your people do.
Maintenance and reliability are two subject areas that are often both poorly understood and poorly executed. The result is high cost to keep things running, a lot of breakdowns, and substantial lost revenue opportunity because of the downtime. Getting out of that situation requires your organization to go beyond the knowledge, skills, and expertise needed when operating smoothly.
The changes will cross multiple functional areas (departments) and run into substantial resistance. Delegating responsibility too low in the organization will result in disappointing results. The key to overcoming those challenges is your active participation at the level of executive sponsor in the transformation. To do that, you benefit from an overview of the areas where problems will reside and what must be done about them. This book provides that overview and advice.
