The ‘strategic’ management of technical integrity has become a high
profile subject matter over recent years within inspection and maintenance of
assets in the process industry. The assets such as production and process
facilities require being optimised, prioritised and cost-effective inspection and
maintenance, depending on whether they are at the beginning or end of their
design life. In both cases, it is vital to ensure that sufficient condition
monitoring data from all relevant sources are collated and analysed as a part in
a planned scheme of inspection and maintenance. This is largely driven by
certifying authority requirements, sound mechanical and corrosion engineering
principles as well as inspection and maintenance approaches, indicated in a
plant strategy. This manuscript suggests a model to execute plant strategy using
analytic hierarchy process method. The model indicates the incorporation of
requirements specified in a plant strategy for reaching optimised, prioritised
and cost-effective outcome.
