G) Emergency Responce Planning
Emergency Response Planning
In addition to the local fire department requirements, your Provincial Environmental licence requires that you have and maintain an emergency response plan. RPA Engineering can help you create or upgrade your emergency response plan to meet regulatory requirements and match your companies particular abilities. We can also link it into your ISO system if needed.
D) Machine Design
From basic mechanical jigs & fixtures, to integrating new technology with existing equipment in your plant, to designing entire processing lines, RPA Engineering can help you with all your machine design needs. We can reduce the risks associated with new designs by proving the machine out on paper before building it or with proto-typing. We can also help you link pieces of equipment together to streamline your process. The following outlines some of the machine design experience we have.
RPAs services bring it all together.
Stress analysis
Strength of materials.
Dynamic analysis with modeling.
Linear & rotary motion control. (Robotics)
PID thermal control.
Operator interfaces.
Component/material use & selection.
Component/product manufacturing methods
Hydraulics and Pneumatics.
F) Problem & Decision Analysis
Problem Analysis
You have a problem that is not going away and you feel you are going around in circles. Let RPA Engineering, with a new perspective, help you solve your problem using analytical methods:
Kepner Tregoe methods
Data acquisition and analysis tools (Excel, JMP)
to determine the root cause of your:
Process failure.
Product quality issues.
Equipment failure.
Product failure at your Customers facility.
Supplier raw material problems.
Then, working with your people, apply resolution planning & implementation.
Decision Analysis
You have a big choice to make and want to limit the risk. RPA can help you and your staff
clarify the purpose,
evaluate the alternatives,
access the risk;
putting everything in front of you so that you can make an informed decision.
Potential Problem Analysis
You have plans and want to make sure they progress with minimal problems during their implementation. RPA can assist you to
identify potential problems,
identify the likely causes,
take preventative action,
plan contingent action,
set trigger points in the plan where the actions happen.

I) Innovation Project Management Systems
Innovation and development of new products and processes can be difficult and costly unless we focus on those new products that have the highest chance of generating a return for our investment.
RPA Engineering has developed simple methods and tools to prioritize, manage and monitor innovation and development projects, based on the ideas of Robert G. Copper, Donald G. Reinertsen, & Preston G. Smith in their respective books Winning at New Products, Developing Products in Half the Time & The Design Factory.
Working with your R&D manager RPA can help you develop a:
Stage & Gate process to create focus.
Document system to store and retrieve what is learned.
Project portfolio reviews to keep every one up to speed.
H) Npri Reporting
National Pollutant Release Inventory (NPRI)
If you are printing or applying coatings, you probably have to report to NPRI and Manitoba Conservation on a regular basis. If your staff runs around for two weeks every time a report is due, RPA Engineering can help you. RPA will set up an accounting system for your reportable substances and link it to a report that just needs printing each time you have to report freeing up your staff to focus on value added tasks.
