Stop Unplanned Downtime Before It Costs Millions

Challenge:

"We lose millions when equipment fails unexpectedly."

Solution:

We don't just fix failures — we engineer systems where they cannot recur.

Case Study: Large Pipeline Operator – Turbine Failure Investigation

Conducted a full root cause analysis (RCA) using the Prysma® methodology, identifying not only mechanical failure modes but latent organizational drivers such as maintenance planning gaps and sensor calibration drift. This comprehensive approach ensured that corrective actions addressed both technical and systemic issues, preventing future occurrences.

Behind the Scenes: Technical Approach

Method

Prysma® Causal Chain Analysis

Tools

AspenTech Fidelis, SuperSMITH for Weibull analysis

Validation

Protocol-driven QA with documented verification steps

Outcome

Implemented corrective actions with traceability to system-level reliability improvement

Why This Approach Works

Beyond Surface-Level Analysis

We identify not just what failed, but why the organization allowed it to fail — addressing latent factors in maintenance planning, training gaps, and procedural weaknesses.

Mathematically Rigorous

Using Weibull analysis and reliability modeling, we quantify failure probability and predict future risk exposure under different operational scenarios.

Institutionalized Learning

Through KIAME©, we ensure that lessons learned are captured, formalized, and embedded into your organization's decision-making processes — not lost in reports.
