The most basic way is to present a standard course after a brief email conversation about goals and objectives. The courses are tried and tested and have been used to good effect worldwide in many maintenance situations.
The second and most common option involves a one-day site visit before the class. This visit allows me to add examples from your facility, adjust the verbal presentation to suit your needs, meet some key players, and see some of the unique problems you face.
involves a more extensive site visit (to be defined) a few weeks before the class. This extra time allows me to customize and add examples from your facility and adjust the verbal presentation to suit your needs. It is always good to meet some of the key players and see for myself some of the unique problems you face.
The third option is to conduct a maintenance audit survey that looks at all the aspects of maintenance, evaluates areas where improvements are possible, and slanting the training to the competencies needed to implement the upgrades uncovered in the survey.
