Asset Reliability & Safety
I combine advanced, systems-theoretic safety frameworks and simulation modeling with strategic aftersales management and continuous improvement strategies to de-risk your operations and protect your bottom line.
1. Strategic Reliability & Aftersales Operations
I help marine OEMs, shipyards, and operators build the frameworks necessary to maintain asset performance over decades.
Aftersales Framework & Strategy Development: Designing and implementing robust global aftersales strategies to ensure high fleet availability, structured spare parts distribution, and predictable lifecycle costs.
Mentoring for Aftersales & Technical Managers: Providing structured, high-level mentoring to technical and aftersales managers to bridge the gap between complex marine engineering and commercial executive decision-making.
ISO 9001 & Continuous Improvement (CI): Leveraging ISO 9001 principles and technical audits to identify root causes of operational friction, optimize maintenance workflows, and build sustainable, continuous improvement frameworks.
2. Advanced Hazard & Safety Analyses:
Systems-Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA): Leveraging STAMP-based frameworks to identify complex, system-level safety hazards, software interactions, and human-factor vulnerabilities that traditional methods miss.
Classical Risk Assessment: Comprehensive, class-compliant execution of Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), and Hazard and Operability Studies (HAZOP).
3. Systems Integration & Co-Simulation:
Modelica & Functional Mock-up Units (FMU): Building dynamic, mathematical models of multi-domain propulsion and auxiliary systems to evaluate transient behaviors, predict system integration failures, and validate control logic virtually.
4. Global Onsite Surveys & Audits:
Propulsion System Installations: Global, hands-on physical surveys of complex propulsion lines to verify installation alignment, compliance, and integration.
Maintenance & Facility Audits: Independent evaluations of third-party maintenance contractors, shipyards, and service facilities to ensure compliance with contract specifications and safety standards.
