The Facilities Maintenance Management: Preventive, Predictive and Reliability-Centred Maintenance Training Course offered by The British Academy For Training and Development is designed to help professionals develop advanced skills in Facilities Maintenance through structured maintenance strategies that improve asset performance, reduce downtime, and extend equipment life. Participants will gain practical knowledge of preventive maintenance, predictive maintenance, reliability-centred maintenance (RCM), and effective maintenance planning to optimise facilities operations across various industries.

This course combines internationally recognised maintenance practices with practical applications, enabling delegates to implement maintenance programmes supported by CMMS technologies and performance monitoring tools. As one of the specialised Facilities Management Training Courses, it equips participants with the knowledge required to improve reliability, minimise operational risks, reduce maintenance costs, and ensure long-term operational excellence.

Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:

• Understand the principles of modern Facilities Maintenance management.
• Develop effective preventive maintenance programmes.
• Apply predictive maintenance techniques using condition monitoring.
• Implement reliability-centred maintenance (RCM) methodologies.
• Improve equipment reliability and operational availability.
• Develop structured maintenance planning and scheduling processes.
• Utilise CMMS for maintenance management and asset tracking.
• Analyse maintenance performance using KPIs and reliability metrics.
• Reduce maintenance costs while improving facility performance.
• Build continuous improvement strategies for maintenance operations.
