Track 1-Business and Management

This year’s Business and Management track has some powerful presentations. Shon Isenhour will be discussing the phenomenon of “initiative overload” and “flavor of the month” syndrome. Terry O’Hanlon and Terry Wireman will be discussing the results of a SAP-PM/EAM survey. Sure to shed some light on the ease of use debate. Nick Roberts will be presenting the “DuPont Production System” and I personally can’t wait to see the details of this. Bradley Peterson will compare Safety culture to Maintenance culture and how behaviors are the root-cause of performance. Adamantios Mettas will be discussing when and how to use RCM, FMEA, and Weibul. Mark Callahan and Greg Lapps from Pfizer will discuss what they did to reduce maintenance cost and increase reliability! Liebherr Mining will be presenting on KPIs and OEE using RCM and how this relates to culture change. CH2MHILL will be explaining how to create a measurable and repeatable process to evaluate the consequence of failure and condition of each work process. RasGas Company will share its initiative to optimize spare parts. Something we all need to do, but can’t seem to find the time. This year is shaping up to be very informative and great learning opportunity for improvement.
