Question $2$

$2\mathrm{.}1$ Using an example, indicate two preventive maintenance tasks you would perform on an asset of your choice.

$2\mathrm{.}2$ Explain two tools used during the RCM process and explain what the purpose of each in the analysis.

$2\mathrm{.}3$ Design limitations are acknowledged by RCM$.$ Explain how this statement is true and illustrate this by means of two examples.

$2\mathrm{.}4$ You are part of a maintenance planning team at a manufacturing plant in Brits. Your department faces a $30\%$ budget cut, yet you have critical items that need maintenance. How would you provide a solution to this problem and indicate the maintenance strategy you would implement.

$2\mathrm{.}5$ You are the maintenance manager at a certain manufacturing plant. Your maintenance team is understaffed, has a high workload and you do not have the budget to hire new workers. Indicate how you would provide a solution to decreasing the current workload and increase the workers doing maintenance.

$2\mathrm{.}6$ You are tasked with conducting the FMEA analysis of an asset of your choice.

$2\mathrm{.}6\mathrm{.}1$ Indicate the asset and the failure mode.

$2\mathrm{.}6\mathrm{.}2$ During the calculation of the RPN number, clearly state if you would:

$2\mathrm{.}6\mathrm{.}2\mathrm{.}1$ increase or decrease the probability of occurrence of the selected failure mode. Explain what actions would be taken to achieve your chosen outcome.

$2\mathrm{.}6\mathrm{.}2\mathrm{.}2$ increase or decrease the detection of the selected failure mode. Explain what actions would be taken to achieve your chosen outcome.

$2\mathrm{.}6\mathrm{.}2\mathrm{.}3$ increase or decrease the severity of the selected failure mode. Explain what actions would be taken to achieve your chosen outcome.
