CONFERENCE HIGHLIGHTS:

Keynote Speaker: Gene Kranz, Former NASA Flight Control Director
From Air Force flight test engineer to flight director for NASA’s Apollo program, Gene Kranz offers an inside look at some of the world’s most dynamic M&R operations. Learn a few M&R lessons from his inspirational leadership of the “Tiger Team” that brought the Apollo 13 spacecraft safely
back to Earth in 1970.

More than 50 educational sessions from the Five Pillars of SMRP’s Body of Knowledge: business management; manufacturing process reliability; equipment reliability; people skills; and, work management. Don’t forget about the SMRP Initiatives track.

Exhibition: Test drive the latest equipment from companies large and small, and compare products side by side. Check out the hottest trends in cost saving innovations and find your company’s next generation of solutions.

Plant Tours: Anheuser-Busch and ABB Transformers

NEW! Workshops: Offered over 3 days of the conference! Participate in one of TEN all-day workshops on Monday, Thursday AND Friday! Combine it with a plant tour to get the most out of your stay!

NEW! One-on-One Consulting Sessions with M&R experts in the exhibit hall
Meet face to face with an industry partner and delve deeper into your needs. This setting fosters a more open and candid dialogue than the exhibit floor allows. Not intended to be a “sales pitch,” these one-on-one consulting sessions can benefit both parties involved: inquisitive customers in need of solutions, and organizations eager to help.

CMRP certification: Three testing opportunities at the conference!

The SMRP Annual Conference is one of the largest pure maintenance & reliability conferences in North America.

Quickly source next-generation equipment and trends to stay competitive, lower costs and improve safety

Compare products side-by-side to ensure you get the best value for your business

Test-drive equipment from all of the major manufacturers, as well as smaller companies whose products you typically don’t have the opportunity to see in-person

Learn NASA’s best M&R practices from keynote speaker Gene Kranz, former NASA flight control director

Target your professional development experience with conference sessions covering the five pillars of the SMRP Body of Knowledge: business management; manufacturing process reliability; equipment reliability; people skills; and, work management

SMRP is a one-of-a-kind destination to network informally and build industry relationships in a great city like St. Louis.

Become a CMRP or renew your certification at one of three testing opportunities

One of the new features we are adding this year is “One-on-One Consulting” sessions. What these will be are 60 minute sessions where an attendee can meet with one of our industry partners in an informal and private setting. This will give our attendees an opportunity to delve deeper into issues they might be facing in an environment that allows more open and candid dialogue than can be had on the show floor. Use this quality time to bend the ear of a seasoned professional and see how solutions can be easily tailored to fit your needs. Our goal is to have our attendees come away from this year’s conference with all the resources and information they need to see real results at their facilities. These sessions will be first come first serve, so be sure to register early for the conference.
