apm asset performance management: Root Cause Analysis Mark A. Latino, Robert J. Latino, Kenneth C. Latino, 2019-06-26 This book comprehensively outlines what a holistic and effective Root Cause Analysis (RCA) system looks like. From the designing of the support infrastructure to the measuring of effectiveness on the bottom-line, this book provides the blueprint for making it happen. While traditionally RCA is viewed as a reactive tool, the authors will show how it can be applied proactively to prevent failures from occurring in the first place. RCA is a key element of any successful Reliability Engineering initiative. Such initiatives are comprised of equipment, process and human reliability foundations. Human reliability is critical to the success of a true RCA approach. This book explores the anatomy of a failure (undesirable outcome) as well as a potential failure (high risks). Virtually all failures are triggered by errors of omission or commission by human beings. The methodologies described in this book are applicable to any industry because the focus is on the human being's ability to think through why things go wrong, not on the industry or the nature of the failure. This book correlates reliability to safety as well as human performance improvement efforts. The author has provided a healthy balance between theory and practical application, wrapping up with case studies demonstrating bottom-line results. Features Outlines in detail every aspect of an effective RCA ‘system’ Displays appreciation for the role of understanding the physics of a failure as well as the human and system’s contribution Demonstrates the role of RCA in a comprehensive Asset Performance Management (APM) system Explores the correlation between Reliability Engineering and Safety Integrates the concepts of Human Performance Improvement, Learning Teams, and Human Error Reduction approaches into RCA |

apm asset performance management: Building Industrial Digital Twins Shyam Varan Nath, Pieter van Schalkwyk, Dan Isaacs, 2021-11-02 Build your first digital twin MVP and gain first-hand experience of using the technology, the challenges it presents, and its impact on your organization Key FeaturesCreate a digital twin prototype using Microsoft Azure Digital TwinExplore the digital twin approach to the design, operations, and maintenance of industrial assets and productsUnderstand key characteristics and components of a digital twin through practical use cases and business scenariosBook Description Digital twin technology enables organizations to create digital representations of physical entities such as assets, systems, and processes throughout their life cycle. It improves asset performance, utilization, and safe operations and reduces manufacturing, operational, and maintenance costs. The book begins by introducing you to the concept of digital twins and sets you on a path to develop a digital twin strategy to positively influence business outcomes in your organization. You'll understand how digital twins relate to physical assets, processes, and technology and learn about the prerequisite conditions for the right platform, scale, and use case of your digital twins. You'll then get hands-on with Microsoft's Azure Digital Twins platform for your digital twin development and deployment. The book equips you with the knowledge to evaluate enterprise and specialty platforms, including the cloud and industrial IoT required to set up your digital twin prototype. Once you've built your prototype, you'll be able to test and validate it relative to the intended purpose of the twin through pilot deployment, full deployment, and value tracking techniques. By the end of this book, you'll have developed the skills to build and deploy your digital twin prototype, or minimum viable twin, to demonstrate, assess, and monitor your asset at specific stages in the asset life cycle. What you will learnIdentify key criteria for the applicability of digital twins in your organizationExplore the RACI matrix and rapid experimentation for choosing the right tech stack for your digital twin systemEvaluate public cloud, industrial IoT, and enterprise platforms to set up your prototypeDevelop a digital twin prototype and validate it using a unit test, integration test, and functional testPerform an RoI analysis of your digital twin to determine its economic viability for the businessDiscover techniques to improve your digital twin for future enhancementsWho this book is for The digital twin book is for mid-career subject experts, including engineers and operations managers, building their first prototype (MVP) using digital twin technology.
