RAM Modelling

Why you may need it

• Do you know the critical failure points of your system?
• Is your system availability lower than you expected or require?
• Do you have significant performance issues that are reducing your output?

The objective of a RAM study is to identify potential causes of production losses or issues that can reduce availability. A RAM model can be used to identify improvements to the design or maintenance regime that enables increased availability.

A RAM study (supported by a Failure Mode, Effects and Criticality Analysis, FMECA), can be conducted during the design of an asset or at any stage of its service life.

The benefits of doing

RAM modelling:

• Identifies vulnerabilities affecting operational availability
• Quantifies equipment and associated maintenance activities that dominate downtime
• Optimises system design and configuration
• Defines levels of redundancy
• Aids component selection and maintenance strategies
• Provides confidence to meet operational goals
• Supports wider decision making
