APM Strategy: RCM and FMEA Workflow

The RCM workflow describes the process of determining optimal maintenance and operational strategies based on the probability and consequence of the analyzed failure modes. Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) is a process to establish the safe minimum levels of maintenance while ensuring equipment continues to perform to its design function within the current operating context.

The FMEA workflow focuses on identifying the potential failures of equipment and locations, describing the possible effect of each failure, and making recommendations for actions that can be taken to prevent the failures from occurring.
