Artificial Intelligence has transformed every aspect of modern work - and maintenance reliability represents one of its most powerful applications. This presentation explores practical, ethical approaches to integrating AI into your maintenance operations for immediate productivity gains.

I'll demonstrate how AI dramatically accelerates data analysis and equipment analytics, freeing valuable time for critical maintenance activities while improving decision quality. From developing more effective preventive maintenance programs to creating compelling management presentations, AI offers maintenance professionals unprecedented tools to enhance their impact.

Whether you're AI-curious or already experimenting with these technologies, you'll discover ethical implementation strategies that complement rather than replace human expertise—ensuring you stay ahead of the curve in the maintenance evolution.

Key Focus Areas:

  • Practical AI applications that simplify daily maintenance tasks
  • Effective prompt engineering to get precise, useful results quickly
  • Essential AI tools specifically valuable for maintenance professionals
  • Ethical considerations when implementing AI in maintenance contexts
  • Real-world case studies of successful AI implementation

Critical Takeaways:

  1. Specific techniques to leverage AI for streamlining routine maintenance tasks
  2. Expert prompt writing strategies to get optimal results from AI tools
  3. The most valuable AI applications and tools for maintenance reliability professionals 

With 30+ years of engineering and maintenance expertise across two major U.S. corporations, Kevin pioneered reliability excellence as Anheuser-Busch's first Certified Maintenance and Reliability Professional(CMRP). His leadership culminated in overseeing production and maintenance for Anheuser-Busch's Canadian Breweries.
