Overview

What this course is about

Active working session designed to define and support the implementation of the planning and scheduling process at your plant. This workshop will evaluate the gaps in the current state of planning and scheduling with best practices. Members of the workshop will also define roles and responsibilities for all positions involved with planning and scheduling. Finally, an action plan will be formalized to ensure the plant team can successfully implement the new roles and responsibilities to execute safe and efficient maintenance work.

This workshop combines theory and practical examples to define all stages involved with the work management lifecycle, including work order creation, planning, scheduling, work execution, work order closeout, and data analysis. The outcome is not a report—but actionable strategies ready for deployment.
