Beyond Preventive Maintenance: Building Reliable Operations Through Trusted Asset Intelligence

Perspective
Root Cause Stage
Day 01

Hospitals and manufacturing plants operate under vastly different conditions, yet both face the same challenge maintaining asset reliability while reducing risk, improving productivity and making confident maintenance decisions. This panel discussion explores how Ventia and PPG Industries are approaching maintenance transformation through improved asset visibility, predictive technologies and better operational decision making. Rather than focusing on technology alone, the discussion examines how organisations build trust in data, overcoming organisational barriers and embedding reliability into day-to-day operations to improve uptime, safety and maintenance effectiveness across critical infrastructure.

  • Balancing reliability with operational risk in critical environments
  • Turning maintenance data into confident operational decisions
  • Building trust in predictive maintenance technologies
  • Lessons from hospitals and continuous manufacturing
  • Breaking down maintenance and operational silos
  • Scaling digital maintenance beyond pilot projects
