Developing & Managing Mechanical Integrity Programs

An effective asset integrity management program supports improved performance & uptime, reduced lifetime maintenance costs, and diminished risk of operational equipment. For that reason, investing in effective mechanical integrity programs is a proven strategy to improve overall facility performance, while also ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements (e.g., OSHA Process Safety Management (PSM) and EPA’s Risk Management Program (RMP) rule).

Learn the requirements of, and how to interpret, the Process Safety Management (PSM) Standard’s Mechanical Integrity (MI) element. Whether your company is large or small, you are experienced with MI or just developing an MI program, consistent interpretation of the requirements is essential.

This course provides attendees with a comprehensive understanding of Mechanical Integrity (MI) management systems, including the interpretation of MI requirements, RAGAGEPs, inspection and preventive maintenance strategies, risk-based inspection, corrosion management, the implementation of MI programs, Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS), and CMMS tools.

Gain insight from the experts that wrote the book – AcuTech played a key role in authoring both the first and second editions of the Center for Chemical Process Safety’s (CCPS) Guidelines for Mechanical Integrity Systems. Additionally, AcuTech was chosen as the contractor to revise the CCPS Guidelines for Auditing Process Safety Management Systems, which offers in-depth interpretation of the MI requirements. This course is primarily based on these two authoritative resources.
