Abstract

To cope with the pitfall induced by the quick growth rate in asset management of automotive components manufacturing, an industry-wide professional competence development programme was initiated by SAE-HK and implemented by HKPC to upgrade the production and engineering asset management capability of Hong Kong automotive manufacturing engineers in order to boost the overall operation quality and efficiency of the industry. Through the comprehensive programme including the formulation of a human resources competence model for the industry, identification of major facility engineering and optimization tools in PAS-55 including Condition Assessment Technique (CAT); Machine Capability Index (MCI), Maintenance Analysis and Management (MAM) and Facility Management Information System (FIMS); PAS-55 system trial run and tools application at pilot companies; and the compilation of a best-in-class training and PAS-55 system implementation manual, local automotive component engineers are practically equipped with appropriate tools to understand the risks their businesses face, and the factors associated with facility optimization and prioritization.
