Score each of the 7 criteria from Operational Severity to Spares Lead Time. Use
the definitions and weighting contained in the Criteria Definition tab.
The next column is simply the mathematical sum of the 7 criteria point values.
Asset Criticality" is the ratio of actual points/total points possible (764), which ranks
assets on a 100 point scale.
Asset Criticality is a number from 100-1 that will correspond with asset criticality in
eAM (future level is 100-1, current level is 1-4). Determining "Asset Criticality" is the
last step as it "rolls up" all assets evaluated to date. The outcome is a ranking, by
criticality, of all plant wide assets from highest (100) to lowest (1).
This standard criticality tool enables plants to prioritize assets and resources on the
equipment most critical to plant operation. The intent of this tool is to initially focus
everyone's energy on the most critical (Top 20%) plant assets in order to determine
the optimum maintenance strategy by first performing failure mode analyses, so that
PM/PdM optimization and Asset Health can then be applied.
Comments
The overall purpose of this tool is to provide a ranked list of assets in the plant to
determine the top 20% based on a standard set of criteria. The criteria are selected
to represent the criticality of the equipment to the facility. Hence the name criticality
analysis.
Five of the seven criteria columns correlate with specific fields in the Isograph
Availability Workbench. This correlation allows the Reliability Engineer to import the
information into Avsim with little effort. Additional information about the specific
AvSim field is listed in the comments for the column title.
The Spares Lead Time criteria is used to estimate several fields in the AvSim. The
general description for the stores system in AvSim is included for reference. The
AvSim module contains a powerful spare part tracking algorithm that allows spare
parts to be traced through three echelon levels. Echelon level 1 is nearest to the
system and may represent spares stored on site for a process plant, or on board for
a ship etc. Level 2 is the next available level and may represent spares stored at a
depot, or at a local vendor in town, for example. Level 3 is used to represent the
source of the spare (e.g. factory) from which the other echelon levels and system are
re-supplied. The repair shop may be used to re-cycle spares into the echelon
hierarchy.
The spares criticality ranking can be used to estimate the Logistics delay time in any
of the 3 levels. The model above may be useful to think about when discussing this
factor to insure which issue you concerned with.

Use the last two previous years data to determine the number of breakdowns or routine tasks
performed on each asset.
