The review of the Capital Program Spares Assessment process identified significant gaps that led to incorrect outputs and, at times, incomplete assessments. These issues resulted in inadequate spares being handed over at project completion, placing additional pressure on Operations and Maintenance teams to identify and procure requirements post-handover, causing delays and increased operational costs. To […]

The webinar focuses on some of the typical challenges faced by Asset Engineers, Reliability & Maintenance Engineers, Maintenance Managers and Maintenance staff associated with Spares Management during the project transition phase into the project operation and maintenance phase. The webinar will explore some of the key elements during this phase of a project and highlight […]

Spare parts play a pivotal role in sustaining equipment reliability and availability, a fact that becomes obvious during both corrective and preventative maintenance activities. When spares are well‑managed and strategically utilised, maintenance work becomes faster, more effective, and more predictable — delivering measurable improvements in reliability, availability, and overall cost performance. This session will explore […]
