Reliability

The Reliability Committee Meeting provides a great opportunity to network with others in the reliability field and discusses solutions to issues in your workplace. We also host educational workshops that are of interest to local industry. The purpose is to support member companies by providing a forum focused on optimizing reliability improvements for their equipment through incremental advancements in equipment design, repair specifications, monitoring systems, process changes and facility layout; and the advancement of installation, repair, and operational skills in order to increase asset availability and value. Among the keys for success to achieving these goals are:

• Quality and suitability of purchased, rebuilt, and repaired equipment
• Proper and appropriate methods for installation, maintenance, and repair of equipment
• High standards for workmanship quality throughout the entire system/equipment life cycle

Those wishing to join the subcommittee must be a representative of a NWIBRT Member or Associate organization in good standing. Committee members should have an interest in reliability improvements, attend most of the monthly working meetings, and actively participate in subcommittee endeavors.
