On Sept 29 (2:45–3:45 p.m. ET, room 302 AB) Matt delivers “Driving Reliability Through Lubrication Excellence: The OC JAX Story.”We discuss what started as a stubborn failure pattern, the certifications and process shifts that followed, why the obvious “fix” wasn’t the full answer, and how one simple move with technicians unlocked faster progress, real ownership, and unexpected training insights. Culture, buy-in, and closing the loop take center stage along with how the same approach is now spreading to other reliability efforts and changing day-to-day relationships on the floor.

  Maintenance is the Blood that Powers Machine Empires 02.09.2026 31мин

  CMMSradio hosts Joe Caetano and Stephan Schomberg of Elevotec ahead of the 2026 SMRP Conference in Raleigh (Elevotec platinum sponsor, booth 1202; use code CMMSRADIO for 10% off). We must shift from measuring maintenance costs to focusing on reliability and cost avoidance!Use sensor data and machine facts to prevent failures and extend asset life. Use targeted (not overdone) sensing on critical assets and 3D visualization/CAD models integrated into EAM systems (like Octave) for faster, mobile-friendly insights on assets such as bridges or precision equipment. Elevotec supports Octave and eMaint options. Remember, maintenance is the “blood” of the organization; sustained reliability programs deliver real bottom-line value.

  The First Agentic CMMS by remberg with David Hahn 20.08.2026 41мин

  The First Agentic CMMS by Remberg is Revolutionizing Maintenance Management!David Hahn introduces remberg’s agentic CMMS featuring AI agents that work alongside maintenance teams instead of replacing them.Sign up for a demo: https://go.remberg.com/cmmsradioAI handles the administrative grind: work request triage, scheduling, documentation, and reporting.Technicians get more real wrench time (currently only 20-30%) by offloading paperwork and planning.Voice reporting, photo-based requests, and automated scheduling proposals make the system faster and easier.Managers stay in control: the AI suggests, humans approve.Goal: help smaller teams do more amid skilled labor shortages without adding complexity.Bottom line: remberg’s AI agents aim to free up technicians so they can focus on actual maintenance instead of fighting the system.Try it here: https://go.remberg.com/cmmsradioThis discussion unveils the next generation of Computerized Maintenance Management Software (CMMS) that incorporates AI agents to significantly augment maintenance operations. Remberg introduces an agentic CMMS, leveraging advanced AI to relieve maintenance professionals from administrative burdens, improve planning, scheduling, and documentation efficiency, and close gaps in workforce shortages—without replacing the skilled technicians essential to facility uptime and reliability.CMMSradio listeners get 3 months FREE: https://go.remberg.com/cmmsradio

  Talking CMMS Maintenance and Asset Management with Gary Jones of ELECO 17.08.2026 42мин

  Gary Jones, Senior Sales Manager at Eleco (PMAC & Shire), draws on 30 years in the CMMS/EAM world to explain why so many digital maintenance projects fail.Main points:Most organizations buy on “shiny thing syndrome” and emotional pain points instead of clear, quantified business outcomes.Buyers rarely prepare properly — they lack documented requirements and don’t involve all stakeholders before talking to vendors.Overbuying is far more common than underbuying. Companies end up with complicated systems they never fully use.Honest maintenance maturity assessment is critical. Match the tool to where you actually are, not where a salesperson says you should be in five years.Implementation and change management are just as important as selection. Poor preparation in the buying phase usually leads to poor adoption later.Relying on a single champion is risky. Successful projects need multiple champions across departments.The industry is slowly shifting from treating CMMS as a compliance checkbox to using it for real operational value, but the skilled trades shortage remains a major ongoing concern.Bottom line from Gary:The software is rarely the real problem. People, process, preparation, and culture decide whether a CMMS succeeds or becomes another expensive failure.
