It is no secret that recent economic outlook has brought challenging times for maintenance organisations. Companies have turned to
downsizing, re-engineering, and a host of other methods to increase profit and remain competitive in the new world market.
It is imperative we realise that the potential pay-off to be gained by optimising production and minimising costs through a well-
trained, creative thinking, enthusiastic work force is far greater than size reductions.
"Do your maintenance staff practice best practices?"What do we mean by proactive maintenance? What is world class maintenance? This all refers to overall precision maintenance skills.
These new skills include doing the big things correctly, like mounting bearings and seals, applying the correct lubricant in the right
amount at the right time with the right delivery system. Making sure the rotor is balanced and the machines are aligned - and doing
the little things correct ly, like how to cut a piece of key stock and how to apply shims. We also need to understand how to inspect
and troubleshoot currently running equipment. These skills don't come from being on the job for a long time; they need to be
transferred to workers.
Why SKF for reliability maintenance training?
In 2015, we invite maintenance trades and engineering personnel to participate in relevant SKF courses and gain new knowledge
and skills that will have a positive impact on daily work and plant performance. Our courses will be tailored to site based applications
with an emphasis on a hands-on approach to provide basic troubleshooting skills and fundamental knowledge about how machines
and components operate internally.
Your employees will have the opportunity to learn from our experienced instructors, as they impart their knowledge on best in
class reliability maintenance practices.
Learning can take place in a conducive public or in-house environment, online where you can learn at your own time and pace or
as a blended option incorporating face to face training and online for maximum impact.
We would like to extend our congratulations to you in making your best business decision - that is, to invest in training for your
employees. We look forward to being your industry par tner in learning, development and performance improvement, and to arewarding 2015.
Wish you an enjoyable learning experience!

Step 2: Training Needs Analysis
Training Needs Analysis (TNA): The shift to a fully integrated, reliability and risk-based asset
management strategy starts with a good initial understanding of where your staff are today and
where your staff need to be to attain optimum plant performance.
The TNA enables this crucial understanding, combining our experience in training and knowledge
of maintenance and reliability. The goal is to provide useful and meaningful information to help you
focus on improvements for plant performance.
TNA is conducted with individuals or a group of your staff from the following work areas:
Managers
Maintenance
Reliability
Engineering
Superintendents/Supervisors
Mechanical Maintenance
Electrical Maintenance
Planning and Stores
Engineers
Mechanical
Electrical
Reliability
Condition Monitoring Application
Targeting thirteen areas of Competency for Improvement
Opportunities for improvement are determined when Training Needs Analysis is analysed. Typical
improvements fall in the following areas:
The Training Needs Analysis will give you a clearer perspective of personnels competency and skilllevels. The results are analysed and you will be provided with a report which includes:
1. A summary of individuals or group of individuals work profile
2. A spider chart, showing a micro-level assessment of each question, with skill levels for each areaof competency, opportunities for improvement as well as areas of exceptional performance (referto spider chart above)
3. A skills summary matrix showing macro level assessment for each of the areas of competency
