Maintenance Management Auditing and Benchmarking
Tony Kelly's research, consulting, writing and teaching have always been strongly focused on the strategy and organisation of the maintneance process. In his new book, however, he also pays particular attention to matters concerned with the human side of the equation.
Maintenance Management Auditing and Benchmarking is concerned with identifying, discussing and auditing those factors (strategic, organisational and human) that can have an influence on maintenance operations.
A distinctive feature of the book is the extensive use of case-studies, covering a wide variety of technologies, drawn from the author's own experience.
THIS BOOK WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL JANUARY 2002, BUT YOU CAN ORDER ON-LINE TODAY. IT WILL BE DESPATCHED AS SOON AS THE TITLE IS PUBLISHED.

Improving Changeover Performance
Currently, industry frequently adopts the SMED (Single Minute Exchange of Die) system, a well established shop floor method to improve changeovers. This book takes a major step beyond the SMED system, by describing in much greater detail than hitherto the potential role of engineering design, of both substantive and non-substantive nature, to enhance changeovers. It also clearly sets out what better changeover performance can contribute to business competitivness, and decribes the many pitfalls that an improvement initiative can face.
