What if maintenance became a performance driver for your plant?

What if maintenance became a performance driver for your plant?

Precision maintenance brings together advanced technical skills to diagnose and correct failures with a high degree of accuracy, thus ensuring optimal operation of assets. Essential for reducing energy consumption, optimizing maintenance operations and improving equipment reliability, it is also an asset for motivating and retaining your teams, while mitigating the effects of shortages of qualified personnel.

Improved equipment reliability
Maintenance cost savings
Reduced energy loss

Our training program addresses the following symptoms:

  • Unplanned production downtime: Equipment breakdowns leading to production losses.
  • Reactive maintenance: costly interventions that shorten equipment life.
  • Poorly maintained assets: Direct impact on overall productivity.
  • High repair costs: expensive emergency repairs and parts replacement.
  • Inconsistent production quality: equipment failures affecting output quality.
  • Frequent repair errors: repeated interventions and additional downtime.

Our courses are designed to train technicians, mechanics and managers to sustainably improve your plant's performance.

Developed in the U.S. and adapted for Canadian plants, the Precision Maintenance program has helped hundreds of plants move into the top quartile of performance.

On-site training
Training by industry experts
Training for managers and technicians

Available as a complete program or as individual courses

The skills assessment process provides valuable insight into the essential craft skill levels needed to increase asset reliability, resolve strategic workforce issues, and respond to competitive pressures faced by many organizations.

During this half-day workshop, all training programs, Reliable Manufacturing, Precision Maintenance and Organizational Efficiency, are presented to the leadership group to ensure understanding and involvement of the managers. Many thought process will be discussed: how do mindsets, culture and skills need to change, with leadership support, in order to improve reliable manufacturing? What does applied planned maintenance actually entail and how it is different from what is done today? Why must mechanical skill development and maintenance improvement start with expertise in proper assembly and installation, as well as alignment and balancing techniques? 

This type of mindset and work change expands the role of technicians. This presentation is designed for senior management, site and/or corporate managers, maintenance/production management, directors, engineers, supervisors, planners, union leaders, senior mechanical technicians, senior operators, and other site decision makers who have a direct or indirect impact on plant reliability.  

This 2-day session describes the work that must be done before and after the ECS Precision Maintenance training. This presentation includes a summary of the responsibilities and obligations for all participants and managers involved. In this workshop, students will learn how topics are determined and how they will be handled.

Documentation used in the past by world-class performers, tools needed for implementation and teaching methodology will also be discussed. Summary documents on benefits, key performance indicators, effective strategies and time required for deployment will be distributed so that you can establish, modify and approve the training plan. Finally, this is also an opportunity to understand and share how technical skills prepare technicians to improve and develop reliable manufacturing.
Developing the skills required for precision maintenance and planned maintenance improvement starts with assembling and installing machines properly, using the right methods and with precision, not to mention the importance of alignment and balancing techniques.

To create real impact and value, training must include hands-on workshops with dynamic demonstrations that measure performance based improvement. This course is designed primarily for maintenance personnel. Operators, engineers, and management personnel with asset reliability responsibilities will also benefit from taking this course to reduce production costs. This course will also cover general principles and practical exercises on vibration, infrared temperature measurement techniques and strobe measurement techniques. It includes hands-on workshops based on the necessary technical skills. Workbenches will be provided for the training.    

Following these steps, we recommend completing your path with one of the courses below, depending on your specific needs.

Following this training, the participant will be able to develop essential notions of handling and installation of bearings. He will also understand the basic principles and the importance of good lubrication in regards to mechanical movements.
Following this training, the participant will be able to apply the basic knowledge of industrial hydraulics and pneumatic systems in order to maintain the machines and diagnose failures.
Following this training, the participant will be able to acquire the necessary knowledge to install, maintain and repair centrifugal pumps.
