An engineering discipline used to evaluate and optimize the reliability, availability and maintainability of assets and systems.
Reliability, Availability and Maintainability (RAM) is an engineering discipline that evaluates the ability of assets or systems to perform their required functions, remain operational and be efficiently restored to service following failures. RAM analyses support engineering design, maintenance planning, lifecycle optimization and operational performance by balancing reliability, availability and maintainability objectives.
RAM provides a structured engineering framework for evaluating and improving asset performance throughout the lifecycle.
RAM studies are widely used during conceptual design, capital projects and operational improvement initiatives to evaluate system performance, identify critical equipment and optimize lifecycle costs.
RAM is the engineering discipline that evaluates system performance, whereas Reliability-Centered Maintenance uses reliability principles to determine the most appropriate maintenance strategy.
