D4M combines Design of Experiment, Failure Modes & Effects Analysis, Return of Experience and Visual Management to ensure that Cause-and-Effect and potential failure are considered and mitigated at the design stage. It also ensures that the maintainability and ergonomics are optimized by involving the operators and technicians early in the design.
Applying D4M results in:
- Ramp-up time improvement by up to 20%
-
On-Time and On-Budget Project Delivery
- Lifecycle Operations & Maintenance Costs Reduction up to 10%
- Improved Risk Management
- Enhanced Change Management for a smoother transition
By the time an asset is commissioned, 95% of its lifecycle costs have been determined. D4M optimizes those costs.
