ABOUT THE COURSE
This course is designed to build competency in work control to improve a production facility's performance. The course focuses on the six phases of work management (work identification, planning, prioritization, scheduling, execution and history capture). Also covered are: optimizing preventive and condition-based activities, critical equipment analysis and critical spares control, managing shutdowns/turnarounds, emergency response work, and developing meaningful key performance indicators. The course develops a sound understanding of work control so that participants can improve and streamline their work management systems to improve productivity and equipment! process reliability, and lower operational costs. Critical issues pertinent to the participant's own operation are identified and analyzed to maximize effectiveness and equipment care standards.
