10:40 AM Panel Discussion: No Disconnects: Proving the Value of Machine Learning for Scalable Predictive Maintenance

As the industry seeks to move beyond reactive maintenance, machine learning offers a powerful opportunity to predict failures before they happen, reducing downtime, optimizing asset performance, and improving safety. This panel explores how early-stage pilots can lay the foundation for scalable, enterprise-wide predictive maintenance solutions.

  • How to build a business case for machine learning in maintenance by identifying high-value assets, leveraging historical failure data, and demonstrating early wins
  • Strategies for assessing data readiness and model adaptability, ensuring that predictive algorithms are trained on relevant, high-quality inputs and evolve with operational complexity
  • Stakeholder engagement techniques that drive adoption, from localized decision-making to cross-functional collaboration between data teams and asset owners
  • How proof-of-concept projects can be scaled across the enterprise with lessons learned in governance, infrastructure integration, and long-term value tracking
