Why Join PERD**CCPS Process Equipment Reliability Database (PERD)Because Its Free for one yearThe only requirement is to provide data for any equipment type of your choosing that you already have in your maintenance system. In return, you will receive an analyzed data results of that equipment data set that has been aggregated if applicable and made anonymous. This is a one year introductory membership for new or past industry participants to join PERD without paying membership fees in return for a data set that can leverage a tiered taxonomy approach that allows a low level of data granularity or a higher levels of granularity. PERD will make efforts to aggregate and return anonymous analyzed data results to all contributing members without delay. You will also have access to the wealth of PERD technical information. After the introductory years period has expired, PERD will work with you to become Full Participants. Failure to submit any data within 6 months would end the introductory membership along with all the perks. PERDs goal is to gather data; this new participant class is an effort to remove barriers to obtaining useful event level data matched to a defined inventory population, and importantly to expose you to the benefits of PERD membership. Our experience with a pilot conducted by the Dow Chemical Company is that data is easily available and the PERD work process provides value.
