SUMMARY:Webinar - Spares Analysis Process Review Supporting Capital Investment Program
DESCRIPTION: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. \nTo address these shortcomings\, the process needed to be redesigned to improve: \n\naccuracy\nconsistency\naccountability.\n\nIntegrating reliability engineering principles and clarifying team responsibilities were critical to strengthening decision-making. \nThe objective is to establish a framework that enhances asset performance\, reduces operational risk\, and supports cost-effective outcomes across capital projects. \nClick here to register \n\n		\n			\n				\n			\n			\n		 \n		\n			Ian is Lead – Reliability Engineering for the Water Corporation of Western Australia.

He has an FMCG background with responsibility for maintenance\, project delivery\, and process optimisation. He has spent five years at Water Corporation responsible for improving asset health and reliability\, and is responsible for condition monitoring\, capability assessments\, compliance strategies\, spares analysis\, and root cause analysis.\n		\n			\n		 \n\n					This session forms the third in a webinar series presented by MRiAM – Challenges Associated with Spares Management During the Operational Phase – Webinar Series. In 2024\, MRiAM presented a webinar series on managing spares\, including guidance on quantities and related considerations. Since then\, several forums have raised questions and prompted discussion about how to manage spares once they have been identified in the maintenance system and warehoused during the operational phase of a project. There has also been growing interest in related topics such as managing obsolete spares\, “squirrel stores”\, and maintaining spares holdings. The objective of this series is to address these topics and provide practical solutions from speakers who have identified these issues and can share proven approaches. Registering for this session will register you for all four sessions in the series.

SUMMARY:Webinar - Managing Spares for Corrective Maintenance\,  Preventative Maintenance and End-of-Life
DESCRIPTION: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. \nThis session will explore the practical foundations of effective spare parts management across key focus areas: \n\nSpares procurement and supplier engagement\nStorage and preservation practices\nInventory holdings\, control\, and issuing processes\nAccess and availability during maintenance windows\n\nStrong practices in these areas ensure maintenance can be completed within the shortest possible time\, at optimum cost\, and with minimal waste or rework. \nWe will also examine the challenges associated with spare parts discontinuation (obsolescence) and component end‑of‑life\, which can create significant cost\, risk\, and engineering impacts for many facilities. The webinar will outline practical strategies to mitigate these issues to help maintain equipment availability while organisations navigate the risks of obsolescence. \nClick here to register\n  \n\n		\n			\n				\n			\n			\n		 \n		\n			Alex Jarufe is a senior Asset Management engineer with 30 years of hands‑on experience across Australia’s heavy industries\, including mining and mineral processing\, oil and gas\, chemical processing\, water treatment\, power generation\, food production and agriculture.
