Add mitigation actions for failure modes defined on the RCM tab of the RCM Templates screen. Failure modes can be mitigated by a PM schedule, by condition monitoring, by modifications, or by all these methods.
Mitigation information can only be specified if the RCM template has a status of Unfinished and has failure mode records defined.
-
Select Equipment > Setup > RCM Templates.
-
Select the RCM template for which to define mitigation actions, and then click the RCM Failure Mitigation tab.
-
Specify this information:
Organization - Specify the organization associated with the mitigation.
Failure Mode - Specify the failure mode for the mitigation.
Mitigation Type - Specify the type of mitigation.
Mitigated Probability - Specify the probability of the risk after being mitigated. The system will recalculate the Risk Priority Number (RPN) and populate the new Risk Level.
Mitigation Applied - Select this check box to indicate that the mitigation is applied. The system will update the matching failure mode on the RCM tab of the template and update the Risk Priority Number (RPN), and possibly that of the template itself.
Note - Optionally, specify a note for this mitigation.
PM Schedule - Optionally, specify the PM Schedule to associate with the mitigation.
Perform Every - Specify the frequency for the selected PM Schedule.
You can also add a Maintenance Pattern or a PM Plan as part of the mitigation. You can also add a project or a case, for example if a modification is required, and an Aspect if condition based monitoring (inspections) may be required. These fields are optional and hidden on this tab.
