Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM)

Optimize maintenance - avoid breakdowns, reduce costs

The right maintenance strategy is crucial, especially for long-lasting assets such as production facilities, energy or transportation systems. Simply reacting to failures leads to high opportunity costs, while excessive prevention generates unnecessary expenses. The key lies in striking a balance: reliable, efficient and cost-conscious.

What makes RCM special

RCM is a systematic approach to developing the optimal maintenance strategy. It takes into account the specific circumstances of each system – from the criticality of individual components to the available data basis.

  • Transition from time-based or purely reactive maintenance to risk-based strategies
  • Assessment of criticality, failure types and reliability data
  • Integration of condition monitoring where appropriate and possible
    Consideration of the costs of failures and maintenance measures

Our services

We analyze your systems, data and processes in order to derive the right maintenance strategy. In doing so, we make optimum use of existing data sources and develop clear recommendations for action.

Your benefit

With RCM, you create a basis for proactive, risk-based maintenance. You reduce unplanned downtime, cut costs and increase the availability of your systems.

RCM is particularly valuable in industries such as chemical and process engineering, energy and transportation, rail and aviation. In combination with service life models and field data analysis, reliable strategies for sustainable maintenance are created.
