Course detail

Maintenance Quality/Reliability Management

FSI-XMSAcad. year: 2020/2021

The subject is focused on the most advanced knowledge in today’s reliability and quality management in maintenance. The emphasis is mainly put on reliability and quality management as well as maintenance and finance management, in addition to that the selected maintenance policy taking into account the economic point of view, maintenance performance and their evaluation using the operational reliability. The students will be also familiarized with new approaches, for example, application of outsourcing, insourcing and benchmarking in maintenance. Also, the claims in maintenance are discussed, and attention to maintenance focused on failure-free operation and complex productive maintenance is devoted. The risk management in maintenance and the human factor in maintenance are analyzed. The computer support of maintenance management is also discussed. The lectures are completed with seminars in which the most important issues are practised on the examples from industrial practice. The discussions are opened to results and conclusions in seminars.

Learning outcomes of the course unit

A student acquires comprehensive and complex theoretical knowledge of maintenance quality/reliability management which can apply in industrial mechanical/electrical engineering practice to solve different problems related to the aforementioned topics.

Prerequisites

Knowledge of mathematics and physics at a level of university study. Also, the knowledge of the aforementioned special field in a scope of the previous bachelor study and Reliability I and Service and Maintenance of Machines subject is expected.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The subject consists of lectures, seminars and seminars with computing technology. According to the possibility of teaching can be organized lectures for students by practitioners and excursions to companies focused on activities related to the course content.


Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

The course consists of exercises and lectures. Exercise is completed by credit (awarded in the 13th week). To obtain it is required 100% participation in exercises and activity in exercises. Students will work out the individual work in the prescribed range and quality. Based on the quality of the work in the exercise, the student earns up to 30 points for the exam The work must be submitted in writing and checked and recognized by the teacher. The test is realized by a written test, the student can get up to 70 points from this test, while up to 30 points the student obtains from the exercises. Evaluation of the test result is given by the ECTS grading scale.
