Ep 2: Failure Modes ~ The Currency of Reliability
In this episode, we talk about what a Failure Mode is and why Failure Modes are so important to equipment Reliability. As responsible custodians, it's up to us to identify the plausible Failure Modes that could occur so that we can figure out if and how we should manage each one. If we don't, it can end up in disaster.

Ep 4: What is Condition Based Maintenance and How Do You Assign Task Intervals?
In this episode we explore what Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) is (aka On-Condition Maintenance). We'll talk about :
- What CBM is
- The biggest trap you can fall into when implementing CBM
- And what governs how often you do a Condition Based Maintenance task.
As asset managers, we know that most Failure Modes occur randomly, and that can seem a little intimidating or maybe even a little scary, but it doesn't have to be because that's where Condition Based Maintenance can be very helpful. The whole point of Condition Based Maintenance is to detect a Potential Failure Condition and take action before failure occurs. That interval is called the P-F Interval and that is explained in this episode.

Ep 1: What is Reliability and how do we get it?
In this episode, we answer two questions: 1) What is Reliability? and 2) How do we get the Reliability we need from our machines? Nancy also discusses how we design our Reliability both literally and figuratively. The quality of our proactive maintenance and Default Strategies largely determines the Reliability we get from our equipment. Inherent Reliability is explained.

Ep 5: The Human Element in Reliability
In this episode, we talk about the more personal (or human) aspect of equipment Reliability. Who is responsible for Reliability? We know the answer is "everyone" - from top management to the experts who operate and maintain our machines. So it's vital that we understand one another's perspectives and responsibilities. We discuss how invisible obstacles can personally affect us - Comfort, the Prison of Perfection, Overwhelm, Our Thoughts, The Voices, and Fear. Fear can be the deadliest one of all. In this episode we discuss a simple - yet powerful technique - to manage fear. When we properly manage the obstacles, we free ourselves up to become more productive and effective equipment custodians.
