Asset Availability Engineered
OptimalAvailability Studio™ Wiki
Reliability engineering that designs availability in, rather than chasing it after the fact. OptimalAvailability Studio™ is where the failure modes are found, the maintenance strategy is decided and the system is modelled – RCM, FMECA, reliability block diagrams, Weibull and RAM. It owns the design and proactive domains of the DIPF curve, upstream of the condition monitoring that OptimalTREND™ runs.

OptimalAvailability Studio™ decides the strategy in the design and proactive domains; OptimalTREND™ executes on-condition tasks in the predictive domain; OptimalSPARES™ stocks to the criticality it produces. One reliability model, feeding the estate.
What OptimalAvailability Studio™ does
OptimalAvailability Studio™ takes an asset from function to failure mode to maintenance task and to a modelled system availability. It runs reliability-centred maintenance to SAE JA1011, FMECA to identify and rank the ways things fail, Weibull analysis to read the life out of failure history, reliability block diagrams and Monte Carlo RAM to size redundancy and predict system availability, and it packages the result into a defensible maintenance and spares strategy. It is the engineering that tells the rest of the estate what to do.
Where to start
- New to it? Start with reliability engineering, then RCM to JA1011 and FMEA and FMECA.
- Want the maths? RBD, RAM and Weibull has the formulae and a live availability calculator.
- Building a case? Value and deployment covers the value and the inputs. Open the demo at demo.studio, or see every app at apphub.optimalworld.org.
