What You'll Learn
The CDMA program is built to transform the way you use maintenance data. You’ll learn:
- Key performance indicators (KPIs) & metrics – Understand the difference between metrics and KPIs, and how to select the right ones for your organization.
- Reliability analysis & decision-making – Use reliability block diagrams (RBDs), root cause analysis (RCA), and reliability, availability, and maintainability (RAM) analysis to identify weaknesses in your maintenance operations.
- Advanced data analytics for maintenance – Create pivot tables, calculate mean time between failures (MTBF) and mean time to repair (MTTR), and apply statistical techniques to maintenance data.
- Converting data into information – Learn how to structure and visualize data effectively to communicate insights and shape your maintenance strategy.
- Life cycle costing & asset optimization – Understand how to calculate total cost of ownership and make smarter decisions about maintenance investments.
- Optimizing preventive & predictive maintenance (PM & PdM) – Improve PM effectiveness, track compliance, and enhance maintenance scheduling with data-driven approaches.
- Communicating maintenance performance – Present data findings to leadership in a way that drives action and secures buy-in for improvement initiatives.
