Programme Overview
Models and Decision Systems is developing and implementing reliability and maintenance models, business processes and procedures using an holistic approach to asset maintenance and management.
The models integrate business goals, production and maintenance functions, taking into account total life cycle costs including acquisition, operations, maintenance and opportunity costs, and the cost of down time risks.
The programme will significantly advance data analysis and reliability models, business architecture and strategic decision systems suitable for each CIEAM industry sector in physical engineering asset management.
The programme’s specific aims are:
- To develop and test intelligent maintenance decision systems for asset management processes suitable for CIEAM industry sectors, and
- To develop applicable reliability analysis models based on advanced data models and failure analysis algorithms.
Integrated research outputs will accommodate the requirements of individual industries.
