In this episode, we are switching directions and instead of looking at the technology, we focus on people and processes to help bring these technologies in and most importantly, get the desired value from them.

In this week's episode on the Technology Innovation series of Maintenance Disrupted, I talk with George Williams at ReliabiltyX to get his thoughts and recommendation as a reliability practitioner and now an advisor and consultant on what he has seen work and not work when companies bring in new technologies. From developing the initial business case mapped to the company objective to the behavior changes needed, George provides sound advice to anyone considering bring new technology to their maintenance and reliability initiatives.

Unlike any breather on the market, The Des-Case Connected Breather has eliminated the subjectivity of color-changing desiccant media, allowing you to know the exact moment your breather is fully spent and should be replaced. Sensors inside the breather provides a precise digital reading of remaining breather life, saturation direction and breather temperature so the breather is never replaced too early or left on an unprotected asset.

In this week's episode on the Technology Innovation series of Maintenance Disrupted,  Blair Fraser talks with Roy Giorgio from Des-Case about a very important but often overlooked aspect of rotating equipment life by ensuring your lubricants are protected from harmful moisture and particulates with breathers. But can these seemingly simple devices become smarter? Yes, with the addition of key moisture, temperature, and battery sensors you can maximize the life of the breather and gain insights into your equipment health that was previously, not available.

Scaling of Industrial IoT solutions requires a Unified Namespace, which acts as a centralized repository of data, information, and context where any application or device can consume or publish data needed for a specific action. A place where everything is a node within an ecosystem

Best described as “What one node knows, all nodes know”

If a Unified Namespace is so important, why do most of us not know what the heck it is and how to achieve it?

In this week's episode, we talk about the concept of a Unified Namespace strategy early in our Digital Transformation journey to ensure the full potential of your investment and that it can scale. I am pleased to welcome David Shultz of G5 Consulting to discuss architecting a digital transformation solution.

Brought up in a mining family that had no time for gender stereotypes, Allyson Hawley, our guest on today’s show, was surprised when she began her mechanical engineering degree with hardly any fellow women students. Throughout her career in the male-dominated mining industry, Allyson has received a lot of support but has also experienced a lot of subtle and not-so-subtle discrimination based on the fact that she is a woman. As she explains, sometimes it’s difficult to identify discrimination, which is why it is so important to find a community that has your back. Allyson also shares the ways in which men in these fields can contribute to eradicating the issue of gender discrimination. We discuss how Allyson’s company is working towards increasing gender diversity in STEM fields, changes she has seen take place in her industry over the years, her take on the hiring process, and her thoughts about what it takes to create a sustainable future. Emily is joined by Blair Fraser and Charli K. Matthews as co-hosts and the combination of perspectives makes for an eye-opening discussion!

Many of us are down the path of monitoring our assets. We have tried different sensors, algorithms, and/or vendors. Many of these attempts to monitor our assets better have failed. How can we do it better? 

In this weeks episode Allyson Hawley of Teck Resources helps us understand how we can monitor our assets better. How we can go about centralizing asset health, what some challenges she has faced in the mining industry, and how she has overcome them.

It might be indirectly but we are all in the customer service industry. For many of us our customers are not end-users, but other departments in our organization like operations. The challenge set out to this week's guests was “how do we improve the guest experience”

In this week's episode, we talk about using AI for Predictive Maintenance on the equipment most of us have spent a lot of time and money to use for a few seconds of fun, amusement park rides. I am pleased to welcome the data science and analytics team from Atos to discuss this unique project that generates over 25 million data points per second.
