Address Equipment Failures with Root-Cause Analysis

Date: Wednesday, October 28, 2015

Time: 02:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time

Duration: 1 hour

Eliminating reactive work caused by equipment failure is essential to improve uptime from reliable equipment operation. However, manufacturing and other asset-intensive industries can find this difficult to achieve.

Applying defect-elimination tools such as root-cause analysis can remove the reactive work that prevents sites from performing essential proactive care tasks. In addition to discussing why root-cause analysis is important, how to do it right, and what it means to reliability, this webinar will provide a common-sense approach that can be implemented within the demands placed on those charged with maintaining/restoring equipment function.

If you’re tired of putting out “fires,” participate in this webinar and so you can start preventing them. Click here to register today.
