ROAD TO CMRP (Dipahami)

Return on Assets (ROA) is determined by:

• Net income/Total assets

• Gross income/Total assets

• Revenue/Total assets

• Net income/Maintenance costs

As the maintenance manager at a new plant (facility) you are developing the maintenance workforce strategy for start-up. Select the best workforce attributes for maximum effectiveness, assuming that unit labor costs are equal

• An annual bid and selection of a maintenance labor contractor is performed, using unitcosting of tasks normally required

• A managing contractor is brought on site to handle all aspects and provision of maintenance labor.

• Multi skilled mechanical crafts (trades) and instrument electrical crafts (trades) are hired and developed.

• Operations performing minor maintenance and company multi-skilled technicians performing complex maintenance tasks

Which of the following are leading tools or techniques to identify Maintenance and Reliability process improvements?

1. Total Productive Maintenance

2. Reliability Centered Maintenance

3. Historical analysis of spending patterns

4. Process benchmarking with industry leaders

• 2, 3, 4

• 1, 3, 4

• 1, 2, 4

• 1, 2, 3

For the oil in a pressurized lubrication system, oil samples for analysis and trending should be taken from:

• The center of flowing oil line upstream of the oil filter, to assure that the sample is representative of the oil leaving the lubricated components.

• The center of a flowing oil line downstream of the oil filter, to assure that the sample is representative of the oil being supplied to the lubricated components

• A low point in the oil sump, to assure that the sample includes wear particles, water, and other contaminants that may have settled out of the oil.

• The oil sump at a point above the bottom, to assure that the sample does not include wear particles, water, and other contaminants that may have settled out of the oil

What are the three most significant constraints when developing a Maintenance and Reliability-organization?

• Engineering/Human/Resources/Budget

• Budget/Operations/People

• Culture/People/Resources

• Culture/Engineering/Budget

The 'Karl Fischer Method' measures:

• The count in parts per million (ppm), of coliform bacteria in a sample of cooling tower water.

• The viscosity of an oil sample based on its flow rate through a calibrated orifice.

• The conductivity in micro-ohms, of a sample of cooling tower water.

• The amount of water in a sample of oil, in ppm.

When developing and presenting a new strategic plan to stakeholders, which of the following is the most important?

• Implementation timetable

• Gaining the trust of stakeholders

• Craft (trade) flexibility

• Establishment of a common goal
