More than 1,000 maintenance and reliability professionals
congregated at the Indiana Convention Center for Noria
Corporation's annual Reliable Plant Conference & Exhibition.
Held April 17-19, Reliable Plant 2018 marked the 19th
installment of the world's premier conference for those in the
maintenance and reliability industry.
KICKING OFF 2018
Prior to the event's official start, attendees were onsite for four
pre-conference workshops. The sessions, which shared insights
and tips on hot topics in the industry, included "Achieving Better
Maintenance Management with Proven Leadership Tactics" by
Doc Palmer of Richard Palmer & Associates and "How to Get
Lubricant Selection Right Every Time" by Bennett Fitch, director
of product development and services at Noria.
"At this point in my career, the learning curve is flat or fairly flat,
but still today I've been wowed with some of the information I've
come across and just different perspectives on how to raise our
game and dealing with other professionals, telling how they do
this or that," said Wayne Tillotson, manufacturing engineer and
maintenance manager with TODCO/Overhead Door.
Later in the day, several attendees had the exclusive experience
of visiting the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for a behind-
the-scenes tour. Sponsored by SDMyers, the Indy Track Tour
gave participants the opportunity to visit the Indy Hall of Fame
Museum as well as see the victory podium overlooking the
racetrack and ride through Gasoline Alley.
If you're looking
to connect
with people in
reliability and
maintenance,
this is the place
to be."
– Will Zell, CEO, Nikola Labs
