Overcoming the Challenges of Large Capital Programs/ProjectsScottMadden, Inc.
Effective capital program/project delivery is a critical competency for any electric utility to achieve high performance. However, project scope creep, schedule delays, and cost increases have become the rule rather than the exception. Over the past 10 years, the electric utility industry has seen large demands on its projects and construction management organizations to ensure compliance with a number of concerns. Large capital programs/projects come with a variety of complicated planning, implementation, and workforce/vendor management challenges. Using EPU projects as an example, we will provide you with ways to overcome these challenges for any large capital program/project. This article can help you successfully plan, deliver, and control/monitor your large capital program/project.
ScottMadden can help you successfully plan, deliver, and control/monitor your large capital program/project. Contact us to discuss any questions you may have.

TECHNICAL TRAINING MANUAL GENERAL FAMILIARIZATION COURSEDuvanRamosGarzon1
AIRCRAFT GENERAL
The Single Aisle is the most advanced family aircraft in service today, with fly-by-wire flight controls.
The A318, A319, A320 and A321 are twin-engine subsonic medium range aircraft.
The family offers a choice of engines
2. Minus twenty five Celsius. Two o’clock in the morning in Serbian
mountain. We are running (critically) low on the mill feed in the
copper concentrator.
Two hundred tonne truck broke down preventing any access to
the beast of hydraulic shovel and also stopped few already
loaded trucks.
Diesel obtained from the black market clogged fuel pipes and
fuel pump and started to turn into paraffin wax in the reservoir.
I am standing with my men by the truck looking into the lifeless
thing. There is no way to halt the concentrator’s operation, stop
the pipeline towards the smelter and eventually shut down the
smelter.
Do not do at home what we’ve done!
But we did it and the trucks were on their merry ways.
3. • There are as many
definitions of the
maintenance as people
offering it.
• Maintenance costs as
defined by plant
accounting procedures,
are a major portion of
the total operating costs
in most plants.
• Impact of the maintenance on the bottom-line profit is often ignored
as “necessary evil”.
• With development of microprocessor based instrumentations
(infrared monitoring and vibration devices) there is no justification
for such approach anymore.
4. • Nothing lasts forever and equipment is designed for predetermined
operational life and ideally, maintenance is performed to keep
equipment and systems running efficiently for at least design life of
the component(s).
MTTF
• The mean-time-to-failure (MTTF) or bathtub curve indicates that a
new machine has a high probability of failure during the first few
hours or weeks of operation (infant mortality period).
5. Reactive Maintenance
(Run-to-failure Management)
Allow machinery to run to failure;
Repair or replace damaged equipment when obvious problem
occurs;
Cost: US$18 /hp/annum*

6. Preventive Maintenance
(Time-Based Maintenance)
Schedule maintenance activities at predetermined time intervals;
Repair or replace damaged equipment before obvious problem
occurs;
Cost: US$13 /hp/annum*
*John Piotrowski, Effective Predictive and Pro-Active Maintenance for
Pumps, 2007; http://www.maintenanceworld.com/effective-

7. Predictive Maintenance
(Condition-Based Maintenance)
Schedule maintenance activities when mechanical or operational
conditions warrant;
Repair or replace damaged equipment before obvious problem
occurs;
• Cost: US$9 /hp/annum*

8. Proactive Maintenance
Proactive approach is close to my heart.
Proactive maintenance improves maintenance through better design,
installation, maintenance procedures, workmanship, and scheduling.
The characteristics of proactive maintenance are:
Using feedback and communications - changes in design or
procedures are rapidly made available to designers and managers.
Employing a life-cycle view of maintenance and supporting
functions.
Ensuring that nothing affecting maintenance occurs in isolation.
Employing a continuous process of improvement.
Optimizing and tailoring maintenance techniques and technologies
to each application.
9. Proactive Maintenance (cont.)
Integrating functions that support maintenance into maintenance
program planning.
Using root-cause failure analysis and predictive analysis to maximize
maintenance effectiveness.
Adopting an ultimate goal of fixing the equipment permanently.
Periodic evaluation of the technical content and performance
interval of maintenance tasks (PM and PT&I).
Proactive maintenance employs the following basic techniques:
Specifications for equipment
Commissioning
Precision rebuild
Failed-part analysis
Root-cause failure analysis
Reliability engineering
Rebuild certification/verification
Recurrence control
Age exploration and the relationship with replacement of obsolete
Items
10. Reliability Cantered Maintenance (RCM)
Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM) integrates Preventive
Maintenance (PM), Predictive Testing and Inspection (PT&I), Repair
(also called reactive maintenance), and Proactive Maintenance.
These principal maintenance strategies, rather than being applied
independently, are optimally integrated to take advantage of their
respective strengths, and maximize facility and equipment reliability
while minimizing life-cycle costs.
The goal: Reduce the Life-Cycle Cost (LCC) of a facility to a minimum
while continuing to allow the facility to function as intended with
required reliability and availability.
12. How to Initiate Reliability Cantered Maintenance
The following is a list of some basic steps that will help to get moving
down this path (NASA 2000).
13. How to Initiate RCM (cont.)
1. Develop a Master equipment list identifying the equipment in your facility.
2. Prioritize the listed components based on importance or criticality to
operation, process, or mission – see text box highlighting priority scheme.
3. Assign components into logical groupings.
4. Determine the type and number of maintenance activities required and
periodicity using:
a. Manufacturer technical manuals
b. Machinery history
c. Root cause analysis findings - Why did it fail?
d. Good engineering judgment
5. Assess the size of maintenance staff.
6. Identify tasks that may be performed by operations maintenance personnel.
7. Analyze equipment failure modes and impacts on components and systems.
8. Identify effective maintenance tasks or mitigation strategies.
