It was fascinating speaking with Nick Haase, who co-founded MaintainX to bring modern tech solutions to manufacturing maintenance. You'd think that's a pretty niche application, and yet almost every central element of his platform he brought up also proved to be a fundamental good business practice.

Here are the highlights:
2:40 - the MaintainX story
7:00 - the importance of user friendliness
10:00 - disconnects on software development
12:30 - integrating with other systems
14:50 - underutilized systems: OEM data, how to gather it, and how to make it actionable
20:00 - AI and machine learning
21:40 - the quality of data is critical: how to build a data foundation (1. capture structure, and store; 2. work towards predictive)
25:30 - the importance of knowledge capture and transfer for developing the workforce of the future
27:50 - augmented reality

Nick brought us a whole bunch to think about, but trust me - it will be worth every minute for you to tune in to the whole thing!
