I often read posts and articles railing against run-to-failure as a valid maintenance strategy. or worse, RCM practitioners trying to apologise for run to fail decisions and explain other ways of doing things.
RTF is hard to accept initially because engineers and tradesmen (Journeymen) have an affinity with machinery as Moubrey would say. We like to get them running, tune them to the max, and keep them running smoothly.
It's in our DNA fortunately... But this doesn't help us to create the minimum safe levels of maintenance for our physical assets.
