## Description

This MCP server implements the Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM) methodology to optimize maintenance strategies, task frequencies, and resource allocation for mining equipment. By analyzing equipment criticality and failure modes, the server provides actionable insights to prevent costly downtime. Use `query_equipment_criticality` to assess asset importance, `query_failure_modes` to identify potential issues, `calculate_maintenance_strategy` to determine optimal task intervals, and `calculate_resource_requirements` to plan labor and parts.

## Tools

### calculate_maintenance_strategy
Determines the optimal maintenance strategy and the frequency of tasks required to manage specific failure modes

### calculate_resource_requirements
Estimates the total resources (labor, parts, and tools) needed to execute a recommended maintenance strategy

### query_equipment_criticality
Retrieves the criticality level and associated risk profile for a specific piece of equipment

### query_failure_modes
Lists all identified failure modes for a specific piece of equipment and their associated consequences

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the criticality level for equipment ID 'CRUSHER-001'?
```

**Response:** 
```
The criticality level for CRUSHER-001 is Extreme, with a high risk profile due to its impact on primary production.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What are the failure modes for equipment 'PUMP-42'?
```

**Response:** 
```
Equipment PUMP-42 has two identified failure modes: Seal Leakage (Operational consequence) and Motor Overheating (Safety consequence).
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Suggest a maintenance strategy for failure mode 'BEARING-FAIL' on equipment 'CONVEYOR-X' with an MTBF of 5000 hours.
```

**Response:** 
```
The recommended strategy is Condition Monitoring with a task interval of 450 days to ensure reliability.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does this server help reduce mining downtime?**
It uses the RCM methodology to identify critical failure modes and recommends specific maintenance strategies and frequencies to prevent unexpected equipment failures.

**Can I use this to plan my spare parts inventory?**
Yes, by using `calculate_resource_requirements`, you can estimate the specific spare parts needed for a recommended maintenance strategy.

**What information is required to calculate a maintenance strategy?**
You need the equipment ID, the specific failure mode ID, and the historical reliability (MTBF) of the asset.
