About This Workshop

This three-day workshop provides a thorough introduction to the principles, process, and best practices of Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM) as defined by SAE JA1011 and JA1012. Participants gain a deep understanding of how to identify functional failures, determine failure modes and effects, and apply well-structured maintenance policies. The course also covers the derivative methodologies—FMEA/FMECA and PMO—highlighting when and how to apply them to achieve faster, more resource-efficient analyses while maintaining technical integrity. By the end, participants will be well-prepared to contribute to RCM analyses and understand the steps required to design a robust PM/PdM program.

What Will You Learn?

  • Master the foundational elements of RCM as defined by leading standards.
  • Identify and analyze functions, functional failures, failure modes, and their effects.
  • Understand how to categorize failure consequences and select the most effective failure management policies.
  • Recognize how FMEA/FMECA and PMO differ from RCM, and when to apply these derivatives for efficiency and scalability.
