Common Sense Planned Maintenance: A practical guide to building a Common Sense Planned Maintenance system - Paperback

by Clifford Jones (Author)

This book describes my Common Sense approach to building a Planned Maintenance system and how it was applied in a global beverage manufacturer.
The application of Common Sense Planned Maintenance in only one brewery reduced annual maintenance costs by over 2 million Euros and is so effective that the system is being applied in over 100 breweries worldwide.
This book also integrates modern developments into RCM theory, including CMMS, Predictive Maintenance and Condition Monitoring. This is the paperback version with Black and White Illustrations.

Here is what the reviewer's say:

Dr Jun Jie Chong, Assistant Professor, Mechanical Design and Manufacturing Engineering, Newcastle University Singapore: Overall, his book is an invaluable resource for anyone who wants to learn more about maintenance and its practical applications. With its detailed guidance, practical insights, and wealth of examples, it provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to this critical aspect of maintenance engineering.

Dennis van der Plas, Manager Maintenance and Asset Care, Heineken: I found this book both entertaining and a good source of knowledge at the same time. Clifford alternates throughout the book easily between explanation, analysis, anecdotes, and instruction, which makes the book very readable. I believe the book is appealing for both young engineers, as well as senior management in Maintenance, because it describes the basics of Maintenance Engineering as well as the considerations one needs to make when starting a large program. Altogether, I'm certain this book is an invaluable resource for many people.
