The best reference for RCM I have been working in the field of RCM since 1991. During that time I have read most of the texts in the marketplace on the subject as well as having worked in a range of countries and industries using a range of different methods. Johns book is unique in that it is set in the context of asset maintenance as a managerial discipline of growing strategic significance. His vast knowledge, coupled with the vast knowledge and resources of his network of RCM practitioners, have combined to make this the finest text on RCM that has been produced to date. If you want to get to know a little about RCM, understand how it is applied, and understand some of the techniques and principles that make up this area of expertise, then there is no better book in todays marketplace. I still carry a copy with me today on most jobs I undertake. Written in laymans terms Johns' book is the most read book on the subject, and remains the standard by which others are measured. Don't waste your time elsewhere. | ||
Helpful source; good start for anyone. I purchased this book for a course that used it for a reference. Overall it contains good information and provides understanding towards the concepts of RCM. I have a background in maintenance already and didn't have too hard of a time understanding the content; class helped, too. I noticed that some of the concepts and approaches to RCM were so simple in idea, that they are easily overlooked. It can add to your arsenal of tools that can help you do your job better and more efficiently. Overall the wording is understandable and isn't boring. Basically, I would say this book is suitable for someone in their 2nd-4th year in industrial maintenance desiring to be a planner or maint. manager position. I enjoyed it because it opened my eyes to new ideas and exposed misconceptions about old RCM tactics that are inefficient. | ||
Not a text, an advertisement ...this book is not a great maintenance text. Rather, it's a sales pitch for a program. The program is fine on its own merit, but the book is not worthy of purchase. All lessons of the book (minus the child-like uptime calculus) can be summarized in the statement: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it -- and if it's cheap to replace, don't maintain it." That's the summary. It's not worth [the money] | ||
