Benefits
Focus efforts to gain the maximum risk reduction
The main benefit of RBI is that money and effort are spent in areas that provide the greatest benefit in risk reduction. In practical terms, this can mean elimination of non-productive inspection activities and addition of others to target a potential problem before failures or operational issues occur.
Whether this saves money in the short term depends on the starting point. A plant with no inspection program may see an initial increase in expenditure, while a plant with excessive inspection will see a reduction.
