What’s keeping maintenance managers awake at night
Here’s what’s on the mind of maintenance managers, according to Paul Arnold, editor of Reliable Plant magazine:
Lean maintenance. The goals: efficiency and reliability.
Going green. Gotta find ways to meet environmentally-minded directives on matters such as cleaners, coatings and lighting.
Boomer retirements mean skill shortages. Lot of valuable guys out there are 55-ish+. Who’s gonna replace ‘em?
Being undervalued. Sometimes management doesn’t get how good maintenance helps the bottom line. Arnold says it can help to “market yourself” with such things as newsletters and blogs (hint, hint).
