RBI Recommendation Implementation

This workflow describes the process of:

• Reviewing the risks and actions that are created from the recommendations promoted to Asset Strategy Management.
• Reviewing the inspections tasks linked to an asset
• Modifying the existing tasks or creating new tasks

Blue text in a shape indicates that a description is provided for that step in the following sections. For more information, refer to the topic Interpreting the Workflow Diagrams.

Persona: Analyst

Go to the Recommendation Management workflow.

Persona: Analyst

After you promote an analysis to Asset Strategy Management, the recommendations linked to the analysis are converted into actions. The damage mechanisms are converted into risks.

Persona: Analyst

Review the Risks and Actions created in Asset Strategy Management to verify if implementing the suggested actions will mitigate the risk to below the risk threshold values. You cannot edit the Unmitigated Risk Assessment for the Risk and the Mitigated Risk Assessment for the Action coming from an RBI Analysis. You can, however, add adhoc Action to mitigate the risk.

Persona: Analyst

If you think that the suggested Actions will not mitigate the risk to below the risk threshold values, create an adhoc Action in the Asset Strategy that has been created after promoting the RBI Analysis to Asset Strategy Management.

Persona: Analyst

If you want to approve the RBI Analysis and the Recommendations for implementation in Asset Strategy Management, you must baseline the Asset Strategy so that its state changes to Active.

Persona: Analyst

Review all recommendations resulting from the RBI Analysis. It is common that multiple recommendations are generated for each RBI Component evaluated (at least one for each damage mechanism that is evaluated). Recommendations generated for all the RBI Components of an Asset need to be reviewed together to develop an appropriate Mitigating Strategy for that Asset.

Persona: Analyst

If the user approves the RBI Analysis and the Recommendations, some of the RBI Recommendations are meant for Inspection Activities, while others may be meant for redesign, repair, and replacement activities.

Persona: Analyst

If the Asset Strategy is not strategic, then the Actions will be sent to Asset Strategy Implementation (ASI) for SAP.

Persona: Analyst

Go to the ASI for SAP workflow.

Persona: Analyst

Review the tasks that are already linked to the asset for which you have created an Asset Strategy to determine whether the existing tasks capture the recommended actions. For example, if there is an Action that instructs you to perform an annual inspection on the asset, verify if there is already a task for annual inspection on the asset.

Persona: Analyst

If an existing Inspection Task provides the same instructions as an Action, link the Action to the Task. You can modify the Task if needed. You can link only one Inspection Task to an Action. If you have performed an RBI 580 analysis, these tasks must be recurring. If you have performed an RBI 581 analysis, then these tasks must be non-recurring.

Persona: Analyst

If an appropriate Task does not yet exist, create a new task to implement one action. Link the newly created Task to the Action. The newly created Task will be populated with appropriate information from the Action. If you have performed an RBI 580 analysis, these tasks must be recurring. If you have performed an RBI 581 analysis, then these tasks must be non-recurring.

Persona: Analyst

The asset strategy may be implemented as Tasks that have been defined directly from actions in the asset strategy. These Tasks are typically managed in the Inspection Management or Thickness Monitoring modules.

Persona: Analyst

Go to the Inspection Planning Workflow.
