People,
I am looking for some examples of leading indicators you use to monitor Reliability and Integrity Performance. Grateful if you can add the definitions you use for each such indicator. I saw one paper in the Forum on leading and lagging indicators, perhaps there are more. If you know about them. plese point me to the links. Thanks.

Among others, the leading KPIs for reliability include:

1. No. of reliability analyses (RCM, RBI & IPF) done against no. of equipment or system

2. Budget of reliability department over company's total budget

3) No. of reliability personnel versus Company's total staff

4. Cost of reliability-related courses versus comapny's total courses.

5. No. of pre-overhaul tests done against total no. of PSVs

6. No. of PM compliance for safegurading loops

7. No. of process alarms properly investigated against total no. of alarms activated

8. Availability and implmentation of Reliability & Integrity Management System including Policy & Objectives (KPIs), Organization, Methodology & Technologies employed, Training, Budgetting, Continuous Improvement (PDCA cycle), etc.

9. No. of reliability & integrity audits or assessments per year

10. R&I Benchmarking/comparison with others

11. Cost of relliability studies before or during design stage preferably before construction.

12. Operational & Maintenance Readiness before first production such as population of CMMS with master data and preventive maintenance.

13. Percentage of predictive maintenance jobs over otal preventive maintenance


Cheers....

Sorry, forgot No. 14. No or Percentage of reliability-related books on the company's library.

15. Reliability engineering syllabus is defined and implemented as one of technical skills

16. Running strategy for equipment with redudancy defined and implemented.

17. Implementation of Performance Monitoring Software for Instrument control and trip loops

18. Reliability-based evaluation of spare parts for purchasing

19. Reliability-based part sparing philosophy

20. Reliability-based work selection especially for shutdown works.

Josh,
Thanks.

That's an amazing set of performance indicators you're advocating. I believe from your previous posts that you're an SAP shop. Are you tracking all of these KPIs in SAP, by hand or some other management system now or just advocating them?

I can't say I've seen many people advocate number of RBIs and IPF analyses done, not that I'm disagreeing.

Those related to CMMS can be tracked in there such as No. 2, 5, 6 & 13.

RBI and IPF are getting more popular now, even applied (retrofitted) to existing plants.
