From approximately 1960 until the late 1980s, Preventive Maintenance (PM) was the most advanced technique used by progressive facilities maintenance organizations. PM is based on two principles - 1) a strong correlation exists between equipment age and failure rate, and 2) individual component and equipment probability of failure can be determined statistically, and therefore, parts can be replaced or rebuilt prior to failure.
PM assumes that failure probabilities can be determined statistically for individual machines and components and parts or adjustments can be replaced or performed in time to preclude failure. For example, a common practice in the past was to replace or renew bearings after some number of operating hours based on the assumption that bearing failure rate increases with time in service. This has proven to be ineffective.
Figure 1–2 shows the failure distribution of a group of thirty identical 6309 deep groove ball bearings installed on bearing life test machines and run to failure. The wide variation in bearing life is obvious and precludes the use of any effective time-based maintenance strategy^2. The X- axis is the individual bearing being tested while the Y-axis is the number of revolutions achieved prior to fatigue failure of the individual bearing. It should be noted that the bearings are tested at above-design loads to accelerate the failure rate. This is the standard procedure used to test bearings in order to determine the expected life of a bearing.
In all the studies, it was noted that a difference existed between the perceived and the intrinsic design life for the majority of equipment and components. In fact, it was discovered that in many cases equipment bearing life greatly exceeded the perceived or stated design life. For example, SKF Industries proposed changes in the method for evaluating bearing life - from the original method (empirical) proposed by Lundberg and Palmgren^3 to one where "bearings exhibit a minimum fatigue life; that is, 'crib deaths' due to rolling contact fatigue are non-existent when the aforementioned operating conditions (properly lubricated, mounted, operated and protected from dirt and moisture) are achieved."^4 This lack of a predefined fatigue life for bearings greatly impacts the concept of a predetermined design life for rotating equipment where rolling element bearings are used and provides the basis for extending the time between overhauls and equipment replacement.
This process, known as Age Exploration (AE), was used by the U.S. Submarine Force in the early 1970's to extend the time between periodic overhauls and to replace time based tasks with condition based tasks. While the initial program was limited to Fleet Ballistic Missile (FBM) submarines, it was continuously expanded until it included all submarines, aircraft carriers, other major combatants, and ships of the Military Sealift Command (MSC). Furthermore, the Navy has invoked the requirements of RCM and condition monitoring as part of new ship design specifications.
It should not be inferred from the above that all interval based maintenance should be replaced by condition based maintenance. In fact, interval based maintenance is often appropriate for

those instances where an abrasive, erosive, or corrosive wear takes place, material properties change due to fatigue, embrittlement, etc. and/or a clear correlation between age and functional reliability exists.
Development of new technologies during the 1990's, including affordable microprocessors and increased computer literacy in the work force, has made it possible to determine the actual condition of equipment and not have to rely upon estimates of when the equipment might fail based on age. These new cost effective technologies and the lack of correlation between age and failure in many equipment items have increased the emphasis on condition monitoring. Condition monitoring, commonly called Predictive Testing and Inspection (PT&I) within the NASA facilities maintenance environment, has resulted in a need to review existing Preventive (PM) and Programmed (PGM) Maintenance efforts and ensure that the most effective approach is being used. RCM provides the structure for developing that approach.
Closely aligned with determining what maintenance approach to use are the subjects of who should do the work and what parts and material will be needed to ensure that the work is done in the most cost efficient manner.
Most recently, RCM has taken on a prominent role in NASA's facility and equipment maintenance and operations program. RCM principles have been integrated into the SPECSINTACT (See Appendix K, Clauses with RCM Applications) wherein designs now have requirements for designing to maintainability. PT&I is used within the construction contractor's quality control program before and during commissioning to ensure that there are no latent manufacturing and installation defects at the time of equipment acceptance. PT&I and proactive
analyses are used as tools by NASA Quality Assurance Evaluators (QAEs) to monitor the contractor's compliance with the specific requirements of performance based contracts. RCM is

2.3 RCM Principles
The primary RCM principles are:
a. RCM is Function Oriented —It seeks to preserve system or equipment function, not just operability for operability's sake. Redundancy of function, through multiple equipment, improves functional reliability, but increases life cycle cost in terms of procurement and operating costs.
b. RCM is System Focused —It is more concerned with maintaining system function than individual component function.
c. RCM is Reliability Centered —It treats failure statistics in an actuarial manner. The relationship between operating age and the failures experienced is important. RCM is not overly concerned with simple failure rate; it seeks to know the conditional probability of failure at specific ages (the probability that failure will occur in each given operating age bracket).
d. RCM Acknowledges Design Limitations —Its objective is to maintain the inherent reliability of the equipment design, recognizing that changes in inherent reliability are the province of design rather than maintenance. Maintenance can, at best, only achieve and maintain the level of reliability for equipment, which is provided for by design. However, RCM recognizes that maintenance feedback can improve on the original design. In addition, RCM recognizes that a difference often exists between the perceived design life and the intrinsic or actual design life, and addresses this through the Age Exploration (AE) process.
e. RCM is Driven by Safety and Economics —Safety must be ensured at any cost; thereafter, cost-effectiveness becomes the criterion.
f. RCM Defines Failure as Any Unsatisfactory Condition —Therefore, failure may be either a loss of function (operation ceases) or a loss of acceptable quality (operation continues).
g. RCM Uses a Logic Tree to Screen Maintenance Tasks —This provides a consistent approach to the maintenance of all kinds of equipment.
h. RCM Tasks Must Be Applicable —The tasks must address the failure mode and consider the failure mode characteristics.
i. RCM Tasks Must Be Effective —The tasks must reduce the probability of failure and be cost effective.
February 2000 2-
k. RCM is a Living System —It gathers data from the results achieved and feeds this data back to improve design and future maintenance. This feedback is an important part of the Proactive Maintenance element of the RCM program.
Note that the maintenance analysis process, as illustrated in Figure 2-2, has only four possible outcomes:
- Perform Interval (Time- or Cycle-)-Based actions
- Perform Condition-Based actions
- Perform no action and choose to repair following failure
- Or determine that no maintenance action will reduce the probability of failure AND that failure is not the chosen outcome (Redesign or Redundancy).
These approaches will be discussed further in Chapter 3.
A formal RCM analysis of each system, subsystem, and component is normally performed on new, unique, high-cost systems such as aircraft and spacecraft systems and structures. This approach is rarely needed for most facilities and collateral equipment items because their construction and failure modes are well understood. Regardless of the technique used to determine the maintenance approach, the approach must be reassessed and validated. Figure 2- depicts an iterative RCM process that can be used for a majority of NASA facilities and collateral equipment.
2.4 Failure
Failure is the cessation of proper function or performance. RCM examines failure at several levels: the system level, sub-system level, component level, and sometimes even the parts level. The goal of an effective maintenance organization is to provide the required system performance at the lowest cost. This means that the maintenance approach must be based upon a clear understanding of failure at each of the system levels. System components can be degraded or even failed and still not cause a system failure (A simple example is the failed headlamp on an automobile. That failed component has little effect on the overall system performance). Conversely, several degraded components may combine to cause the system to have failed even though no individual component has itself failed.
2.4.1 System and System Boundary
A system is any user-defined group of components, equipment, or facilities that support an operational requirement. These operational requirements are defined by mission criticality or by environmental, health, safety, regulatory, quality, or other NASA-defined requirements. Most systems can be divided into unique sub-systems along user-defined boundaries. The boundaries are selected as a method of dividing a system into subsystems when its complexity makes an analysis by other means difficult.
