RCM Analysis Leadership:
- Independently lead end-to-end Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) studies on rotating, static, electrical and instrumentation assets - from system boundary definition through Failure Mode & Effects Analysis (FMEA), criticality ranking, and maintenance task selection.
- Facilitate and/or perform RCM analysis workshops with client SMEs, Operations and Maintenance stakeholders.
- Conduct Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA) and bad-actor identification to support defect elimination and reliability improvement initiatives.
- Hands-on use of ReliaSoft suite (Weibull++, BlockSim, XFMEA/RCM++) for failure data analysis, life-data (Weibull) modeling, reliability block diagrams, and RCM/FMEA documentation.
- Build and maintain failure mode libraries and reliability statistics (MTBF, MTTR, hazard rates) to support proactive maintenance strategy development.
- Run reliability simulations to validate proposed maintenance task frequency and effectiveness, and to quantify risk/cost trade-offs.
- Translate RCM/FMEA outputs into revised maintenance strategies, PM task lists, maintenance items and plans, and load/update them into SAP PM (or equivalent EAM/CMMS such as Maximo).
- Ensure alignment between ReliaSoft-derived strategies and SAP equipment hierarchy, Functional Location/Technical Object structures, and master data standards.
- Partner with Master Data/CMMS teams to verify that recommended task intervals, spares linkages, and job plans are correctly reflected and actioned in the client's enterprise system.
- Own the detailed, hands-on analytical work-product under the direction of the client's program managers - this is an execution-focused role, not a people-management role.
- Prepare high-quality, audit-ready deliverables: RCM registers, FMEA worksheets, criticality assessments, maintenance strategy documents, and gap-analysis reports.
- Manage own workload and timelines across multiple equipment groups/assets in parallel, escalating risks or resourcing gaps promptly.
- Work closely with client reliability/maintenance managers, operations, and engineering disciplines to validate assumptions, findings and recommendations.
- Present analysis outcomes and improvement recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Support knowledge transfer and coaching of client/LTTS junior engineers on RCM methodology and ReliaSoft tool usage, where required.
