The Value Of Reliability Assessments And Benchmarketing In Life Sciences
By Richard Tree
A global medical device manufacturer sought to improve Safety, Equipment Reliability, Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), and cGMP regulatory compliance by performing a plant-wide reliability and best-practice benchmarking assessment.
The goal: perform a thorough reliability assessment and benchmarking against industry standards, OSHA, and cGMP requirements to establish a reliability roadmap for moving the organization into regulatory compliance and industry best practice performance.
With the collaborative support of the Plant Manager, Plant Leadership Team, Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) Steering Committee and Six Sigma LEAN Team, CAI’s Asset Management & Reliability (AMR) Technical Consultants assessed and benchmarked the facility against regulatory requirements and industry best practices.
