FAQ:

What specific qualifications or prerequisites are needed for participants before enrolling in the course?

No formal prerequisites are required. However, a basic understanding of plant operations, engineering principles, or previous exposure to maintenance or asset management is highly recommended.

How long is each day's session, and is there a total number of hours required for the entire course?

Each day's session is generally structured to last around 4-5 hours, with breaks and interactive activities included. The total course duration spans five days, approximately 20-25 hours of instruction.

Why is integrating Digital Asset Management (DAM) important in modern maintenance programs?

As maintenance management shifts toward digital transformation, Digital Asset Management Systems (DAM) provide centralized control of technical assets like manuals, drawings, and equipment history. This integration enhances access, speeds up maintenance processes, improves version control, and optimizes asset utilisation.
