The 37th ESReDA Seminar is to take place in Baden, Switzerland, on 22nd and 23rd October 2009. Called Asset optimization and maintainability: Challenges in the new world order, the seminar looks at the challenges faced by equipment manufacturers under the current economic, legal and enviromental conditions.
It is no longer possible for equipment manufacturers to concentrate primarily on price reduction. Instead the manufacturer has to look at customer needs from the start of design, and to create sustainable added value by a people-centric approach using embedded knowledge within the organisation to achieve optimal overall equipment effectiveness over its lifetime.
The seminar will provide a forum for presentation and discussion of existing and future challenges in RAMS, Asset Optimisation and in Service Affecting Failures (SAF). It will provide an opportunity to share the best practice across all industrila sectors as well as identify key problem areas.
The seminar is jointly organised by Esreda and ALSTOM. Submissions of abstracts for the programme can be made until 1st of August 2009. For more details of the meeting download the preliminary announcement. |

When Swedish Marine consultant Arne Ullman set up a forum to share information and risk expertise in October 1973, little did he know he was laying the foundations for one of the world’s most significant safety and reliability organisations. It was this forum – the European Reliability Data Association (EUReDatA) – which would form the beginnings of ESReDA.

Safety practitioners are set to benefit from a pioneering set of guidelines into accident investigation to be published by the European Safety, Reliability and Data Association (ESReDA).
The report, Guidelines for the Safety Investigation of Accidents, highlights best practice, future challenges and learning from experience across a range of sectors including energy, transport and the process industries.
The guidelines stem from ESReDA’s 2003 study into European practices, which revealed a need for more formal processes to be put in place to improve quality and consistency in the field.

(ESReDA) is a European Association established in 1992 to promote research, application and training in Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety (RAMS). The Association provides a forum for the exchange of information, data and current research in Safety and Reliability and a focus for specialist expertise.
ESReDA's most prominent activities are its project groups and its seminars. Each project group has a specific theme and lasts for 2-3 years. Normally a book is produced reflecting the work of the PG. Some 10 books have been published, and are listed on our publications webpage. Current PG's have their own webpages whch can be accessed on this site. ESReDA organises 2 European Seminars each year and these are hosted by different ESReDA members across the continent. Seminar proceedings are edited by the JRC-ISPRA, Italy. The whole European Community is represented in the ESReDA membership. The development of ESReDA in Eastern Europe is a special point of action.
Membership of ESReDA is open to organisations, private or governmental institutes, industry researchers and consultants, who are active in the field of Safety and Reliability. Membership fees are currently 1000 EURO for organisations and 500 EURO for universities and individual members. Special sponsoring or associate membership is also available. |
