Customer Reviews

My book of choice on the subject

Smith's book reflects a solidly based practical approach plus interesting insights eg the handling of parallel redundant systems. Having my practised RCM for a number of years internationally I would recommended Smith to anyone interested in the subject, or about to undertake any RCM work.
