Mark Haarman

This presentation covers a state of the art framework for finding your winning maintenance strategy, build and implement it and monitor whether the results are in line with your targets. Defining your strategy includes assessing your current state, benchmark with industry peers to discover your improvement potential, and derive a realistic and focused improvement agenda. Your desired future state then needs to be created and implemented by aligning your (preventive) maintenance plans, your maintenance work processes, your SAP EAM system and your maintenance organization to your strategy. Monitor the results with a professional KPI dashboard build in SAP Business Objects, proof that it really works and only then go into the next improvement cycle. The framework is based on Value Driven Maintenance® (VDM) and the presentation will reveal the VDM Roadmap, dedicated VDM tools and VDM customer case study results. VDM has been implemented by leading maintenance organizations all over the world with impressive results ranging from 30% uptime improvement, up to 50% cost reduction or 40% lower MRO stock value. The VDM tools have proven to accelerate many multi site Maintenance Excellence programs bridging differences in plant size, culture and level of professionalism.
