SMRP Lean Maintenance Series Workshop

Nashville, Tennessee Sheraton Nashville Downtown Hotel March 10 – 11, 2011 Unlock your capacity through our certified SMRP workshop focusing on Maintenance Workflow Optimization. Learn to identify and eliminate waste from your maintenance system with Maintenance-Based Lean Tools.

DAY 1:

Maintenance Workflow Optimization
Value Stream Mapping for Maintenance

Recent studies confirm average maintenance productivity hovering at a staggering 25%! This reality resides at the core of a fundamental maintenance paradigm: As maintenance & reliability professionals, how can we find time to work on improving reliability with growing backlogs and restrictive maintenance budgets?

The capacity answer can be found within identifying and removing day-to-day waste found in our existing systems which is often considered “just the way it is” and often blends into the background.

Identify your hidden capacity through Value-Stream Mapping for Maintenance

At the onset of every successful LEAN effort resides a powerful tool which creates awareness, identifies value-added steps vs. Muda (waste), and creates a sense of urgency to take the correct action immediately.  Value Stream Mapping (VSM) as well as all other LEAN tools can be translated and applied directly to your maintenance process.
