PROACT(TM) Logic Tree Knowledge Management Templates Now Available for Use in PROACT(R) for Meridium

The PROACT(TM) Logic Tree Knowledge Management Templates are an aggregation of experience garnered from more than 800 field investigations. The analyses have been thoroughly reviewed and their results compiled to form this unique, single RCA knowledge base.

"Analysts can now utilize RCI's templates within Meridium, providing a comprehensive knowledge base that can be leveraged to accelerate analysis activities. As RCA teams progress through their analyses related to a particular failure, they can now review additional possibilities made available with the PROACT Logic Tree Knowledge Management Templates. These templates provide the analyst with greater visibility into something their team could have missed and can also incorporate previous findings into the current analysis to ensure that appropriate corrective actions are identified," said Joe Nichols, Vice President of Product Strategy for Meridium.

Robert J. Latino, CEO of Reliability Center, Inc., said, "When conducting RCAs, one of the greatest benefits any company can achieve is to optimize the learning from past experiences to avoid future consequences. The new PROACT Templates provide a jump start to this process by allowing past experience to be easily accessed and utilized within new analyses. By publishing PROACT analyses and using templates within Meridium, we are providing a growing RCA knowledge base that will make future RCAs more accurate, comprehensive, efficient and effective."

Meridium and RCI have been alliance partners for more than 10 years. Meridium's RCA solution incorporates RCI's PROACT(R) methodology for root cause analysis to correct recurring or costly reliability problems.
