2. Data Collection and Analysis:
   • Gather and analyze data related to equipment performance, failures, and maintenance history to identify patterns and trends.
   • Work closely with data analysts to develop predictive maintenance models.
3. Equipment Health Monitoring:
   • Implement condition monitoring programs to assess the health of critical equipment and provide early warnings for potential issues.
   • Collaborate with maintenance teams to integrate predictive maintenance technologies.
4. Root Cause Analysis:
   • Conduct root cause analysis investigations for equipment failures and develop corrective actions to prevent recurrence.
   • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to address systemic reliability issues.
5. Reliability Improvement Projects:
   • Initiate and lead reliability improvement projects to enhance the overall reliability and performance of assets.
   • Evaluate and recommend upgrades or modifications to existing systems for improved reliability.
6. Life Cycle Cost Analysis:
   • Perform life cycle cost analyses to determine the most cost-effective maintenance strategies for critical equipment.
   • Provide recommendations for equipment replacements, upgrades, or refurbishments based on economic considerations.
7. Documentation and Reporting:
   • Maintain accurate records of reliability analyses, maintenance activities, and equipment performance.
   • Prepare and present reliability reports to project management and stakeholders.
8. Collaboration and Communication:
   • Collaborate with project engineers, maintenance teams, and other stakeholders to implement and communicate reliability initiatives.
   • Conduct training sessions to enhance the understanding of reliability principles among project teams.
