Industrial Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul:

Future-Proofing Operations Through Training

Tuesday, June 10, 2025 | 1:00PM CST / 2:00PM EST

Since 2019, the cost of unplanned downtime has surged by over 50%, fueled by rising inflation and higher-capacity production. As industrial systems grow more advanced, Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) readiness has evolved beyond inventory management. Even the best-stocked storeroom won’t save you if your team doesn’t know how to use what’s inside. Whether you’re facing persistent downtime, struggling with skills gaps, or looking to extend equipment life, skilled technicians are critical to operational efficiency and reliability.

 

Join industrial maintenance veteran Tim McDaniel, who brings over 35 years of field and engineering experience, for a fireside chat on why training is the missing piece in many organizations’ MRO strategies. Led by Industrial Training Solutions Specialist Sarah Brogna, explore how a blended learning approach that combines on-demand courses, immersive simulations, and live instruction can elevate your team and reduce costly downtime.

You'll Leave With:

  • A new framework for thinking about MRO readiness that prioritizes both spare parts and skilled people.
  • Methods to implement a blended learning strategy to upskill your maintenance team and future-proof operations.
  • Examples of how training can cut downtime and lower maintenance costs.
