"IDCON - A Reliability and Maintenance Management Consulting Firm"
I have received several comments from readers of the three previous articles, and one common question was to have examples of role descriptions for planners, supervisors and operations-maintenance coordinators.

Editor-in-Chief, Maintworld Magazine (until the end of 2024)
You are holding the freshly printed Maintworld – the voice and trailblazer of the maintenance sector, now carefully crafted into a visual magazine.
New self-healing, anticorrosive, and antimicrobial coatings can reduce maintenance costs, and their use is expected to increase in the coming years.
When Professor Diego Galar took over as Chair of the European Federation of National Maintenance Societies (EFNMS) in May, he inherited not only the leadership of Europe’s umbrella organisation for maintenance but also the responsibility to redefine its role in a fast-changing industrial landscape.
A comprehensive analysis led by Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden shows that biomass is crucial for achieving Europe's climate goals.
New AI-based functions will provide predictive maintenance for bridges, culverts, retaining walls and sea walls around the world.
Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) promises improved reliability, but is it always worth it? Full-scale implementation is often overly complex, costly, and unnecessary—like using a cannon to shoot a mosquito. Without readiness and a strong foundation in basic maintenance practices, RCM can distract from more practical, cost-effective solutions. Simpler, experience-driven approaches may often yield better results.
In recent years, advances in connectivity, big data and digitalization have often promised to bring significant benefits to industry. Now, with the Valmet Industrial Internet, data is being used to deliver a better kind of maintenance service, as well as performance optimization services.
