A: RCM WorkSaver™ provides a Help button on each screen for overview information on each step of the process and an Instruction button for filling out WorkSaver™ forms.
A: WorkSaver™ can be used for abbreviated studies, however it is recommended that systems that fall into the 80/20 rule (80% of problems from 20% of the systems) get the classical analysis. An abbreviated study begins on step 3-4 with a component list, immediately followed by step 5-2, Failure Modes and Effects Analysis. The remaining steps 6 through 7-3 are completed as normal.
A: Each screen in RCM WorkSaver™ is designed to automatically sort data by component numbers, component ID numbers, Functional Failure, Failure Modes, etc. This information is automatically transferred from step to step. Each step has a report that you can view or print for review or presentation.
A: The software is designed to be very user friendly, with on screen helps and RCM hints. If you are already familiar with the RCM process you do not need additional training for the software. However, if you are new to RCM analysis, the software will not make you an expert. New RCM studies should be performed with the help of a consultant. Please contact one of the experts through the links on our RCM Consultants page.
