Uptime Tycoon – Free Plant Reliability Simulation Game
Command a 10-asset manufacturing plant across 24 simulated months. Master Weibull failure physics, solve P-F warnings, and maximize cumulative profit.
Plant Reliability Simulation Game
How to Play
1Take command as Plant Reliability Director over a 10-asset manufacturing fleet (Crushers, Pumps, Kilns, Compressors, etc.) across 24 simulated operating months.
2Assign maintenance strategies per asset: Run-to-Failure (RTF), Time-Based PM, Condition-Based PdM (IoT sensor monitoring), or Capital Redesign.
3Respond to P-F curve degradation warnings before catastrophic secondary damage occurs.
4Maximize cumulative plant profit, maintain high availability and OEE, and receive an end-of-game strategy debrief certificate.
What You Will Learn
Asset degradation curves, Weibull shape (beta) and scale (eta) dynamics, economic trade-offs of preventive vs corrective repairs, sensor ROI, and overall plant availability modeling.
