Cross Reliability

Reliability and maintenance systems · UK and Ireland

Hear the failure coming.

Your assets give warning before they fail. We build the data, systems and site habits that catch it in time, so your plant plans its work instead of chasing it.

P is where a developing fault first becomes detectable. F is where the asset stops doing its job. Illustrative: the curve’s shape and the order of the signs vary by failure mode.

The real problem

Most reliability problems start long before the breakdown.

Three patterns come up again and again. Each one is fixable, and fixing them in the right order matters.

Data

An asset register nobody quite trusts

Duplicates, blank nameplates and hierarchies that vary by site. Every report built on top inherits the doubt.

Work

PMs done because they’re due, not because they prevent anything

Job plans copied for years, with no link to a failure mode. Effort goes in, and the same breakdowns still happen.

Insight

Numbers that arrive after the decision

Monthly spreadsheets and competing KPI figures, while the morning meeting runs on memory and opinion.

How it fits together

Reliability is a loop. It breaks at its weakest link.

A dashboard can’t fix bad data, and neat data can’t fix a poor PM. That’s why we work across the whole loop, and why we’ll tell you if the thing you asked for isn’t the thing to do first.

  1. 1

    Asset data

    What you own, where it is and what it is made of

  2. 2

    Strategy

    How it fails, and what task actually prevents that

  3. 3

    Work

    Clear plans, sensible routes and tools that work offline

  4. 4

    Evidence

    What was found and done, captured properly the first time

  5. 5

    Decisions

    Live KPIs and bad actors that show where to act next

Each decision feeds back into better data and a better strategy.

Specialist depth

Deep in IBM Maximo and MAS 9.

From builds and data loads to job plans, API-driven dashboards and offline tools, we know Maximo from the database up. Running something else? The reliability thinking carries across, so talk to us anyway.

Our Maximo work

How we work

Three steps, and we aim to be needed less after each one.

  1. 01

    Diagnose

    We look at your data, your system and your plant floor, then tell you what is really holding reliability back. You get a prioritised view, not a thick report.

  2. 02

    Fix the foundations

    We work through the highest-value problems first: the data, the strategy and the workflow, in that order wherever we can.

  3. 03

    Make it stick

    Dashboards, coaching and clear ownership keep it going. The goal is a site team that no longer needs us for this.
