Aligning People, Processes, and Technology for Maintenance and Reliability Success
Why do so many maintenance programs fail to meet their full potential? It’s not just about tools or talent — it’s the disconnect between people, processes, and technology. This session gets to the heart of the problem by introducing the concept of a Maintenance Charter — a foundational document that outlines the vision, roles, responsibilities, and objectives for your maintenance program. Acting as a shared roadmap, the charter ensures alignment across teams, simplifies workflows, and ensures technology drives efficiency, not complexity. Through real-world examples and actionable insights, we’ll explore how misalignment creates waste and limits growth, and how a well-crafted charter breaks silos, simplifies processes, and ties maintenance directly to the broader business goals. Whether you’re getting started or ready to scale, this session will provide you with a game plan to turn maintenance from a reactive indirect cost center or an afterthought into a competitive advantage for your business.
