RaCom

Reliability Centred Maintenance — Intelligent, Integrated, Web-Based

Turn maintenance from a cost centre into a strategic advantage

The Maintenance Challenge

Every organisation with physical assets faces the same dilemma: maintain too often and it wastes money; maintain too little and it risks failure, safety incidents, and unplanned downtime.

Traditional approaches rely on manufacturer recommendations, historical practice, or simple time-based schedules.

The result:

Organisations routinely over-maintain some assets and under-maintain others — with no objective basis for knowing which.

Reliability Centred Maintenance (RCM) solves this by analysing how equipment fails and what the consequences are, then defining the right maintenance task at the right interval. But until now, implementing RCM has meant spreadsheets and disconnected documents with no way to quantify the outcome.

RaCom Changes Everything

RaCom is Transsol's purpose-built web application for managing the entire RCM process — from initial equipment analysis through to optimised maintenance schedules.

Built on the SAE JA1012 standard, RaCom guides users through the structured RCM decision logic while providing powerful quantitative tools that go far beyond what traditional RCM delivers.

  • Complete SAE JA1012 decision workflow in one place
  • Weibull reliability analysis with real failure data
  • Markov availability modelling for hidden failures
  • Cost-based maintenance interval optimisation
  • Professional reports at the click of a button
  • Secure web access — no installation required

What RaCom Delivers

Structured RCM Workflow

Walk through the complete SAE JA1012 decision process: consequence evaluation, proactive task assessment, and default action analysis. Every decision is recorded, traceable, and auditable.

Quantitative Analysis

Go beyond qualitative RCM with built-in Weibull distribution fitting, Markov chain availability modelling, and cost-based optimisation. Define intervals based on evidence, not guesswork.

Equipment Hierarchy

Organise assets logically: Systems, Equipment, Functions, Failure Modes — with full drill-down navigation. Link physical assets across all locations where they are installed.

Professional Reports

Generate presentation-ready reports: RCM Decision Worksheets, Maintenance Task Summaries, Equipment Registers, Status Summaries. Ready for client review or regulatory submission.

Progress Tracking

Visual status charts show RCM programme progress at a glance. Track failure modes from identification through analysis to completed maintenance task definition.

Secure Multi-User Access

Role-based access: administrators manage data, analysts perform assessments, clients view results through secure read-only access. All via standard web browser.

The RaCom Advantage: Evidence-Based Maintenance Intervals

Weibull Analysis

Fit failure distributions to real operational data. Understand whether equipment exhibits infant mortality, random failure, or wear-out behaviour. Calculate reliability, hazard rates, and expected life.

Markov Modelling

Model system availability for repairable systems and hidden failures. Determine optimal inspection intervals for safety-critical unrevealed failure modes.

Cost Optimisation

Balance preventive maintenance cost against failure consequence cost to find the interval that minimises total expenditure. Sensitivity analysis shows how robust the answer is.

The result: maintenance schedules that are demonstrably optimal — defensible to regulators, proven to reduce whole-life cost of ownership and genuinely effective at preventing failures.
