PROACT® Root Cause Analysis

High overtime rates.  Overstocked storerooms.  High cost of downtime.  Unsafe work environment.  Poor environmental performance.  Poor quality products. 

These are the effects associated with plants that are unreliable.  We have to expend more money just to maintain our required performance.  Studies have shown that many plants are highly reactive which translates into high maintenance and downtime costs.  Some studies suggest that maintenance costs in reactive plants are 25% higher than plants with effective reliability work processes.

One of these key reliability work processes is Root Cause Analysis or RCA.  RCA is a series of steps taken to determine the underlying causes of plant problems.  These problems range from costly equipment failures to safety and environmental incidents.  The key difference between a proactive plant and a reactive plant is how they manage equipment failures.  Reactive plants simply identify that a problems exists and do what ever it takes to get the problem resolved so plant operations can continue.  Proactive plants find out how the event occurred in the first place and put in corrective actions to ensure that the problem does not reoccur. 

PRG has been helping plants around the world in many different industries implement effective methods to uncover the underlying causes of negative plant issues.  Utilizing the award winning PROACT® methodology, PRG clients have saved millions of dollars applying these proven problem solving techniques.
