Company Overview

Reliability Dynamics LLC is a registered engineering company specializing in equipment reliability and maintenance solutions for corporate software systems. The company has been in business since September 1, 2010. The primary product is the Industry Standard Solution for SAP Plant Maintenance (ISPMTM). The company is headquartered at 3432 Topsfield Road, South Bend, Indiana, USA.

Mission
We combine engineering science with information technology to optimize performance and safety of equipment assets in manufacturing industries. We enable data-driven decision making with high-quality information. We optimize information quality and interoperability through standard data collection, merging, and assessment processes.

Value Proposition
Reliability Dynamics helps companies maximize production throughput and minimize hazards with highquality equipment reliability data. With the ISPM product, companies can quickly identify and address bad actor and pattern equipment failures that affect production or cause hazards. Whereas traditional solutions account for only actual equipment repair costs (approximately 10 percent of revenue loss), ISPM gives companies the tools to account for all consequences related to each equipment failure: production loss, health, safety, and environmental incidents, and repair costs. With ISPM, companies can also account for potential near-miss consequences. ISPM greatly improves quality and accessibility of equipment reliability data with standard data collection processes and by structuring data in relational format. High-quality structured data enable fast and comprehensive analyses. Whereas non-relational failure data (typical of traditional solutions) must be analyzed one record at a time, with ISPM, thousands of failure events can be queried simultaneously. This truly gives companies the ability to make data-driven decisions. ISPM is built on international data and engineering standard practices. Standard practices facilitate a template approach for implementation, which reduces implementation time and cost by 50 percent.

Business Concept
Reliability Dynamics provides solution design and preconfigured solutions within SAP corporate software for Enterprise Asset management (EAM).1 Reliability Dynamics EAM solutions give manufacturing companies high-quality equipment performance and failure consequence data. Companies use that information to identity high-consequence equipment failures and failure patterns, determine underlying failure details and systemic problems, develop maintenance strategies, and take corrective actions.

EAM refers to equipment maintenance, reliability engineering, and consequence assessment processes that are applied in asset intensive industries, such as petrochemical, oil and gas, utilities and mining). The relevant SAP functionality is Plant Maintenance.

Reliability Dynamics LLC | Company Overview

Reliability Dynamics has a fundamentally different approach to EAM: 1. Reliability Dynamics enables data-driven corporate decision making with high-quality and highavailability information. Customers have an enterprise-wide view of equipment performance and its effect on their bottom line. 2. Reliability Dynamics primary focus is EAM. In contrast, many large system integrators2 focus on implementation of finance and controlling (FICO) and materials management (MM) and treat EAM as an afterthought. 3. Reliability Dynamics treats an EAM implementation as an engineering project. Business processes are designed by experienced reliability engineers fully conversant with engineering requirements and relevant industry standards. Solutions are consistent with recognized and generally accepted good engineering practices (RAGAGEP). In contrast, most system integrators staff EAM implementations with non-technical system configurators. 4. Reliability dynamics personnel are SAP-certified solution consultants with leading expertise in SAP software capabilities and in-depth knowledge of relational data theory and data architecture principles. These are people uniquely qualified to match functional engineering requirements with solution capabilities and deliver optimal solutions for EAM. 5. Reliability Dynamics makes SAP easy to use. Sound data architecture maximizes user friendliness: cockpit view, single entry point to all information, logical and intuitive data structuring, automation of data-intensive requirements, and simplified screens with relevant information only. 6. Reliability Dynamics gives better results at a lower cost. Standard designs packaged in rapiddeployment templates (RDTs) minimize implementation costs and maximize solution effectiveness. RDTs significantly reduce implementation duration and corporate personnel time commitments required for implementation.

Management
Tony Ciliberti is licensed professional chemical engineer and SAP-certified solution consultant (Plant Maintenance) with 25 years of international experience in equipment reliability and risk management for petrochemical, oil and gas, and utilities industries. Ciliberti has designed and implemented asset management solutions for some of the worlds largest public utilities and oil and gas companies.

The term system integrator refers to companies that implement software solutions within corporate software systems.
