Gulf Society for Maintenance & Reliability (GSMR)
Description
The GSMR Body of Knowledge (BoK) was created with a focus placed on all aspects of maintenance from addressing the basics of world-class-maintenance, to creating a reliability culture in the organization. To achieve the best-in-class MR&AM performance, the GSMR BoK is based on five pillars with emphasis on covering the asset life cycle.
- Pillar 1: MR&AM Strategy: Ensuring asset management fundaments are in place (value, alignment, leadership & assurance)
- Pillar 2: Asset Reliability: Describes all reliability activities that must be in place
- Pillar 3: Maintenance Work Processes: Describes all maintenance activities that must be in place
- Pillar 4: Systems & Technologies: Enablers (software or hardware) of successful maintenance and reliability within the context of asset management
- Pillar 5: People & Leadership: The human factor that, with all the elements above, will carry the journey of excellence in maintenance and reliability
