What is tesibis

Tesibis is a technical consulting firm founded by industry pioneer Jim Fitch. Tesibis provides objective, technically rigorous guidance in lubrication engineering, lubricant analysis, tribology, and machinery reliability. Tesibis serves law firms, equipment manufacturers, and industrial operators that need decisions backed by defensible technical analysis.

Drawing on decades of field work and research, Tesibis helps clients understand why lubrication and mechanical failures occur and how to prevent them in the future. Their work blends hands‑on experience with lab data, standards knowledge, and clear communication that stands up in both operational and legal environments.

Deep Roots in Lubrication and Reliability

Tesibis sits at the center of a broader ecosystem of reliability organizations built over Jim Fitch’s career.

Jim Fitch founded Tesibis to focus on advanced consulting in lubrication, oil analysis, and failure investigation.

He founded Noria Corporation in 1997 to help user organizations improve machine reliability. Noria accomplishes this through lubrication training, consulting, publishing, and events.

In 2000, Jim and Noria’s senior leaders co‑founded the International Council for Machinery Lubrication (ICML), which has gone on to certify more than 40,000 maintenance and reliability professionals worldwide.

Earlier in his career, Jim co‑founded Diagnetics, a company that developed and sold lubricant analysis instruments and services in more than 40 countries. Diagnetics was known for pioneering pore‑blockage particle counting technology.

This history reflects a consistent focus: helping industry make better decisions through better lubrication and condition monitoring practices.

Why We Refer Customers to Tesibis

We recommend Tesibis when our customers need:

Expert testimony and forensic analysis – Objective, well‑documented opinions on lubrication failures and reliability issues that can stand up in court or during high‑stakes internal reviews.

Root‑cause failure investigations – Detailed analysis that connects lubricant condition, system design, and operating practices to the true causes of equipment problems.

Lubrication and contamination control strategies – Guidance for improving system design, lubricant selection, filtration, and monitoring practices to reduce risk and extend asset life.

Integration with training and certification – Insight that aligns with the same best practices championed by Noria and ICML, ensuring consistency across training, certification, and day‑to‑day reliability work.

By combining Luneta’s inspection hardware with Tesibis’ consulting expertise, plants can move from simply detecting problems to fully understanding and preventing them. This alignment is why Luneta confidently recommends Tesibis for advanced lubrication engineering and expert analysis.
