CII Research Project • D for M research project 1997 - 1999 • CII Guidebook - 1999 • CII Education module - 2002
Research Results • Defined “levels” of implementation • Common approaches to implementation • Common attributes of success • Model implementation process
Maintainability Principles • Reduce or eliminate wrench time • Optimize Safety, Accessibility, & Ergonomics • Reduce Complexity or Task Difficulty • Optimize Standardization, Interchangeability, and Modularization
Process Characteristics • Integrates downstream knowledge early in • design process • Model process provides implementation • structure • Long-term perspective – • Reduces life cycle costs • Short term perspective – • Integration into existing processes • Alignment • Start up
D for M Process Highlights • Early implementation =Greatest impact • Suite of tools to expedite implementation • Continuous improvement carries • over to future projects
NASA Implementation • Engineering & Construction Innovation Committee • D for M selected as best practice for implementation • Development of week-long course • Presented at Field Centers • D for M material presented in Sustainability course • Centers implementing sustainable projects
NASA Implementation • Interdependent concepts • D for M integrated with • Sustainable (Green) design • Commissioning • Safety & security • Supports other NASA programs • Reliability-centered Maintenance • Reliability based equipment acceptance
ImplementingDesign for Maintainability George Conner Staff Reliability Engineer Chevron Corporation Houston, Texas
Approaches to Implementation • Standard design practice • Contract specification • Cross functional participation • Pilot program • Integration into existing programs • Formal maintainability program • Comprehensive tracking
Model Process Source: CII Implementation Resource 142-2 Page 16
Model Process Elements • Milestones • Milestones are achieved through • maintainability practices • Practices • Maintainability practices are • implemented using tools • Tools • Tools basically document process • steps in a checklist format
Implementing D for M • Assemble cross-functional proj team • Formal maintainability reviews • Design to project maint. strategy • Consider maintenance staff skills and • training requirements
Implementation guidebook 22 Maintainability Practices 16 Implementation tools Implementation suggestions Establish a champion Pilot program – if a new start Implementation Resources
Chevron’s Application • Post Startup Performance unacceptable • Developed Operations Assurance Process Team approach to selecting, developing, assessing and executing specific pre-operations activities, throughout the course of a project, that impact asset performance. • Project development and execution is based on a structured phase gate approach: Identify, Select, Develop, Execute, Operate • Maintainability is part of the Operations Assurance (OA) process.

Implementation Summary • CII has developed a robust D for M process. Milestones Practices Tools • Early commitment / implementation is critical • The implementation can be customized based on current state and ultimate goals. • For Chevron, D for M is not a standalone effort • Specific D for M applications adapted for the OA process generally reference: Milestone 4: Plan Maintainability Implementation Milestone 5: Implement Maintainability Process
Design for MaintainabilityBenefits Robert Post Technical Fellow Project Engineer Rohm and Haas Company Bristol, PA
Project Benefits • Smoother project startup • Less project rework • Less costly maintenance • Lower life cycle costs • Metrics & Continuous Improvement • Supports CII Best Practices
Long Term Benefits • Eliminate the need for maintenance • Increased task efficiency • Reduced accidents • Decreased downtime • Access & ergonomics • Standardization/modularization • Task simplification
Experience at Rohm & Haas • Domestic US Projects: • “Reliability Design” • Functional focus • Looks at reliability issues first • Minimize failures and maintenance • Identify/Resolve maintainability issues • Mostly done prior to execution
Experience at Rohm & Haas • Domestic US Projects: but…. • Superior FEL definition yields faster/cheaper • execution • Everyone knows this, but…… • Getting Front End schedule time & resources • Actual results vary • US work is limited these days anyway…
Experience at Rohm & Haas • Overseas Projects: difficulties • Engineering Processes Vary • Owner processes • Contractor processes • O&M processes • Cultural Viewpoint / Values differences • Language • Safety • Quality • What does “Yes” REALLY mean?
Benefits Summary • The know-how exists! • Domestic: Must get commitment of • management and engineers • Overseas: Much steeper learning curve
