The Coordination Problem - Travis Soutter - Concordia AM

Travis Soutter has spent 25 years inside asset management — Visy, Amcor, AGL, now running his own consultancy, Concordia. He thinks most organisations are already doing asset management. They just don't call it that, and they don't coordinate it. In this episode we get into: – Why the ISO 55000 label has made things worse, not better– The shutdown planning war story that taught him why "everyone hits their critical path" still isn't enough– Why 50% of a good CEO's decisions are gut instinct — and what that means for engineers– The training course where only one person in the room thought they did asset management (everyone did)– How tangible and intangible assets follow the same maintenance logic — including brand– Courage and empathy as leadership disciplines, not soft skills Travis is a CAMA-certified consultant and his intro-to-asset-management course is now endorsed by the World Partners in Asset Management (WPiAM).

Adam Lea-Bischinger | Asset management - Keeping the modern world running

Adam Lea-Bischinger shares his extensive experience in asset management across various industries and regions. He discusses the misconceptions, standards, and opportunities in asset management, emphasizing the importance of culture, leadership, and practical application of best practices. Asset management is often misunderstood. It’s not just about maintaining assets; it’s about ensuring they deliver value. Think of everything you rely on daily – roads, airports, power stations. The goal? Keep those assets operational while balancing risks and costs throughout their lifecycle. Too often, people see it only through a financial lens. But real asset management connects the dots between strategic goals and day-to-day operations. As we navigate global challenges, understanding this is more crucial than ever. What’s your perspective on asset management?

Chris Hallum - UE Systems - Ultrasound | Partnership and long-term thinking in Reliability

Chris Hallum from UE Systems & host of his own podcast - Talking Reliability shares his insights on reliability, the evolution of ultrasound technology, and the importance of training and partnership in condition monitoring. Discover how large organizations like Amazon implement standardization and leverage AI to optimize asset management. ## The Chain of Reliability: Understanding Roles Across Departments Reliability in any organization is akin to a chain, where each department plays a crucial role. Chris emphasizes that if one link in the chain weakens, the entire system can falter. For example, procurement teams often purchase cheaper alternatives that may not meet the necessary reliability standards, impacting overall performance. The Importance of Cross-Departmental Communication Why It Matters: Ensuring that all departments—from engineering to procurement—understand their roles in maintaining reliability can prevent costly mistakes. How to Implement: Foster open communication channels between departments. Regular meetings can help clarify responsibilities and align goals. Common Mistake: Ignoring the interconnectedness of departments can lead to oversights that undermine reliability efforts.
