How to build a game plan to proactively manage your assets

With COVID-19 causing considerable uncertainty, many reliability and maintenance professionals are concerned about how to meet production goals. For football fans, there’s also some anxiety—what’s in store for America’s favorite fall pastime? Maybe there’s something we can learn from considering production and football goals at the same time. In this webinar, Life Cycle Institute educator and Reliability Engineering expert Mike Smith shares how football and asset management are very similar, and how you can apply winning football tactics to your asset management strategies. He’ll explain the role of the Reliability Engineer as the plant’s attacking, ball-hawking defensive specialist, and how REs can best understand the risks and failure modes of their plant’s assets.
