Recommended Reading for the CMRP
In addition to the resources offered by SMRP and other organizations described above, there are a few books that can be especially useful when preparing for CMRP certification.
Maintenance and Reliability Best Practices by Ramesh Gulati
Maintenance Best Practices is commonly used since it contains sample questions that are similar to what you might see on the CMRP. In addition, it's simple to understand, making it a great resource for those seeking certification.
Tip: If you could pick only one book, Maintenance and Reliability Best Practices is the resource to choose.
The Rules of Thumb for Maintenance and Reliability Engineers by Ricky Smith and Keith Mobley
The Rules of Thumb for Maintenance and Reliability has a lot of good material in it, including flow charts on proactive maintenance that may appear on the exam.
Engineering Reliability: Fault Trees and Reliability Block Diagrams by Harry G. Kwatny
Engineering Reliability is a big one for those who haven't used fault trees or reliability block diagrams before. It can be found completely free online.
Additional Books
Finally, a couple of additional books that are worth studying include:
- Making Common Sense Common Practice by Ron Moore
- Maintenance Planning and Scheduling by Doc Palmer
Tip: It's helpful to get PDFs of these materials. With a PDF document, you can quickly search for terms without flipping through a hard copy.
