SMRP and enetrix Partner For Online Maintenance and Reliability Benchmarking Study

MCLEAN, Va., Oct. 7, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Society for Maintenance and Reliability Professionals (SMRP), in partnership with enetrix- a division of Gallup, has recently launched an online evergreen delivery interface for SMRP's Benchmarking Study for Maintenance and Reliability (M&R).  The purpose of the survey is to provide a means for organizations to compare their M&R performance to others in the same or similar industries.  The Benchmarking Study, which is supported by SMRP's consensus-based, standardized metrics and definitions, give M&R professionals the ability to measure performance consistently, make valid comparisons, establish achievable goals and objectives and set realistic expectations.  "This is the only M&R survey that based entirely on SMRP conscience metrics.  It is an invaluable comparison tool," said Ron Leonard, Director for the Body of Knowledge for SMRP.  

The study's scope is consistent with SMRP's M&R Body of Knowledge, which is supported by the five Pillars of Knowledge: Business and Management, Manufacturing Process Reliability, Equipment Reliability, Organization and Leadership and Work Management. The study comprises two survey components: the Survey for M&R of Production Equipment, which is currently open for data collection, and the Survey for M&R of Facilities Maintenance, which will be open soon for data collection.

The new online evergreen interface allows for data to be submitted in a secure online environment backed by enetrix.  All data submitted is strictly confidential and is encrypted during transmission.  In addition, the save entry feature enables data to be entered in multiple sessions by multiple users if needed.  Participants also have the ability to track data for a single owner with multiple facilities.  

Participation in the Benchmarking Study is free and open to both members and nonmembers of SMRP.  Participants who submit their data by October 17, 2011 will receive one year of free access to data and reports.  Access to real time data is available 24 hours a day/7 days a week.  Performance of data can be monitored over time as the database continues to grow.  For more information, please visit https://smrpbenchmarking.enetrix.com.
