Even organizations that follow a deliberate RCM process to identify failure modes and develop applicable and effective maintenance tasks experience disappointing results. Why? Recent data points to difficulties during the implementation phase of RCM initiatives. According to attendees of the recent webinar Optimizing SAP Maintenance Plans, 70 percent of attendees cited that 50% or less of their previous RCM/FMEA recommendations actually made it into their EAM system. Reasons for this include: - Existing RCM tools are disconnected from EAM.
- Loading RCM recommendations into EAM is difficult.
- Once loaded, RCM task justification is lost.
- Measuring results over time is difficult.
- Keeping the RCM process evergreen is nearly impossible.
The result? Many RCM initiatives are one-time exercises, not the "living" programs required to demonstrate anticipated and continued ROI.
