Carl and Fred discussing the planning that goes into any reliability program.
Key Points
Join Carl and Fred as they discuss approaches to achieving high reliability. Specifically using the 6-step process. (See Show Notes)
Topics include:
- The 6-step” process to achieve high reliability (See Show Notes)
- Does the 6-step process apply to setting up a reliability organization?
- What is a “reliability organization”?
- Vision for reliability in one, three and five years
- Aligning the tasks in a reliability program to year of implementation.
- Scope of reliability plan can be project or program
- Reliability plans can include organization-related tasks, as well as project-related tasks
- The 6-step process works for setting up a program, laboratory, consulting practice, and many other activities
- Stephen Covey: “begin with the end in mind”
- If you are setting up a reliability organization, consider aligning to an actual project in parallel
- “Reliability organization” does not mean a separate reliability team, it is an integration of reliability expertise with product and process engineering
- How to alter the culture of an organization
- Measuring things does not change reliability. Improving reliability involves changing mindsets and influencing the organization.

Quick note: in this SOR episode, I mistakenly called Greg Hutchins, Greg Hutchinson (sorry, Greg). Greg is a thought-leader on AccendoReliability. He is managing director and principal engineer at Critical Infrastructure Protection: Forensics, Assurance, Analytics (R), and heads up many exciting projects about the future of professions. I’ve enjoyed reading his book “Working It: Disruption Rules – COVID Edition.” Here is Greg’s About Page
