Absolutely not! That is a big misconception of the process. You get to decide how broadly or how narrowly you apply Reliability Centered Maintenance.
We all live in the real world. And there are limited resources. There's limited time. There's limited money. There are limited available personnel to get analyses done. And that's okay. We have to work with what we have.
If you're just starting out, and you're wondering where to begin, start small. Choose something that is maybe causing you the most pain like high-cost drivers and poor Reliability. Start there so you can get the biggest bang for your buck when it comes to Reliability Centered Maintenance.
