“AMCL were very enthusiastic and extremely knowledgeable on the subject matter and has been key to getting some of the tough conversations going about some of the poor practices that are in place, doing it in a way that isn’t judgmental.
AMCL were able to show the positives and the need for continual improvement in this space.“
A medium sized government owned european utility responsible for essential public services across a national region. Supporting a broad population and managing extensive physical assets, the organisation must coordinate across operations, engineering, and customer services in a highly regulated setting.
The company owns a significant system of pumping stations, water and wastewater treatment works and reservoirs (approximately 30,000km of watermains and 15,000km of sewers).
This company’s vision is to be a valued and trusted provider; an organisation that customers and staff are proud of.
They appointed AMCL to understand the current Asset Reliability capabilities with the aim of developing an approach that will promote their asset reliability and asset health.
AMCL was engaged to develop a supporting roadmap and improvement plan. We continue to collaborate with the company as an implementation support resource to help directly support the improvement workstreams across the organisation to ensure the future implementation and embedding of reliability improvements.
AMCL have completed the first tranche of the Asset Reliability Project delivery and have developed a detailed business case to implement and embed future reliability improvements.
The Project Initiation Document and Business Case provided to the leadership team described our good practice approach to provide a robust foundation for promoting Asset Reliability within the organisation.
AMCL are well positioned to collaboratively deliver Asset Reliability through Asset Performance Monitoring of critical M&E equipment, the acquisition of improved asset information, and other insights around the origins and root cause of asset failure.
Asset Performance Monitoring
Acquisition of Asset Information and Modelling to support decision-making
Standard Assets, Inventory Management, and Systems Engineering
These three workstreams will be essential to growing the Asset Reliability capabilities at the company and will be one part of the journey towards the certification of their Asset Management System to the requirements of ISO9001 and ISO55001.
Identifying targets for asset performance monitoring for the most critical M&E equipment to deliver benefits on the path to business as usual. Resulting in a holistic view of how the business tackles the procurement of asset performance monitoring equipment.
Embedding a universal root cause analysis process for the business to follow to support the elimination of repeated asset and system faults. Improved decision-making capabilities through incorporating asset information and modelling.
Embedding a systems engineering approach that encompasses reliability, availability, maintainability and safety across the asset lifecycle of the whole portfolio.
