Maintenance veterans don't get enough credit for keeping machines running decades after they were overdue for an upgrade. Unfortunately, this type of experience is leaving fast, and #manufactures are not ready! I remember my first job in high school, working as a shop hand and doing maintenance work for a manufacturer, with awesome mentors teaching me what to do. However, today, most of them are retired, and pretty much every company is in the same boat. So what do we need to focus on? MaintainX recently dropped a new article on 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐌𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐍𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔, and it had some great takeaways: 🧰 Make knowledge capture a priority for your skilled workers. 🧰 Reframe maintenance as a competitive differentiator. 🧰 Turn machine signals into maintenance work, and maintenance work into operational insight.

If you want to see where AI is actually changing operations, don’t look at the keynote-stage demos. Look at a growing car wash chain based in Colorado. For a long time, maintenance software was a digital filing cabinet. Log what broke. Note who fixed it. File it for the auditor. That framing isn’t wrong. It’s just incomplete. A filing cabinet records the past. It doesn’t help anyone do the next job better. The Autowash story in Fortune yesterday is what happens when the system answers back. A tech walks up to a bay, gets a summary of the likely issue, the right part to pull, and how a colleague at another site fixed the same problem last week. Repair times down 74%. New techs productive in weeks instead of months. What I keep thinking about is the shape of the operation underneath. 26 locations, 150 bays, no longer running like 26 separate businesses. The judgment of the most experienced tech on the team becomes available to everyone, everywhere, the moment they need it. I spent time with Erin in person recently. The maintenance overhaul is the entry point, not the whole story. She’s rebuilding every layer of the operation, and what they’ve been teasing on automation and innovation is the part of this story most operators in the category aren’t ready for. In the piece, she put it plainly: software like this isn’t a solution. It’s a new way of thinking. You can’t turn it on and expect it to work for you. You have to integrate it into how the work actually gets done. Thanks to Erin and the Autowash team, and to Sage Lazzaro at Fortune for telling the story. https://lnkd.in/e74F--6m

3 milhões de horas sem falso alerta no GeoCOD! 🏅 Esse número não é só um marco técnico. É trabalho sério, cuidado e dedicação da nossa equipe todos os dias. É a certeza de que nenhum colaborador, cliente ou comunidade precisou enfrentar o desgaste emocional, operacional e físico que um falso alarme pode gerar. Porque cada alerta falso não é só um número, é tempo perdido, preocupação desnecessária e desgaste desproporcional para quem está no campo e para quem precisa tomar decisões críticas. Quando idealizamos o GeoCOD, nosso objetivo sempre foi claro: construir um sistema de detecção de colapso que unisse inovação e segurança, sem abrir mão da robustez estatística que um sistema de emergência exige. Hoje, com o sistema monitorando mais de 70 barragens, esse compromisso se traduz em resultados concretos e confiáveis. Quando batemos o primeiro milhão, já foi incrível. Hoje, triplicando esse resultado, a sensação é de orgulho coletivo. Cada teste, cada melhoria, cada procedimento seguido com disciplina fez a diferença. Aqui, tecnologia não resolve sozinha. Ela precisa caminhar com atenção aos detalhes, comprometimento e um time que realmente leva a segurança a sério. E é exatamente isso que temos na Geomin. Cada hora sem falso alerta é mais que um número. É a prova de que inovação, responsabilidade e segurança caminham juntas. É o reflexo de um time que transforma esforço em resultados reais. E, para mim, é motivo de orgulho e inspiração para continuar avançando. Obrigada, time, por acreditar, confiar e colocar sua energia todos os dias na Geomin. Esse marco não existiria sem vocês, a nossa comemoração foi do tamanho dessa conquista: incrível!

After years in this industry, I’ve never been more certain: sustainability isn’t an add-on. It’s the foundation. Recently, I wrote for NBS | Powered by Hubexo about why the street furniture industry is at a crossroads, and what’s at stake if we continue to design for replacement instead of resilience. Outdoor furniture is often treated as disposable, but every piece specified represents materials, carbon, transportation, energy and care. It should earn its place in our public spaces and keep it for generations. At Furnitubes International Ltd, we’re trying to ask better questions at every stage: How long will it last? What happens at the end of its life? Can we design for disassembly? Can we source more responsibly? In this article (linked below), I share some of what we’ve learned so far. If you’re also working on your sustainability journey, as a manufacturer, designer, or decision-maker, get in touch - I’d love to compare notes. #SustainableDesign #UrbanFurniture #LongTermThinking #PublicRealm

I joined the Built Barriers workshop last week, hosted by The Developer and Festival of Place of Place and Part W, and it’s been sitting with me since. We were talking about the kinds of obstacles that make cities feel harder to move through, especially for women. Things like poor lighting, out-of-order lifts tucked away in isolated corners, long walks through disconnected spaces, and streets that feel unsafe after dark. One barrier stood out more than I expected: scale. Large, open spaces, the kind created by car-first planning, can actually make people feel less safe. Instead of freedom, they create a sense of exposure. Discomfort. A lack of natural surveillance. In trying to design for efficiency or flow, we’ve created places that feel anonymous and unsafe. If we want our cities to be safer and more equitable, dialling back the dominance of the car is one way to start making them feel more human again. It’s a shift I’m glad to be part of through our work at Furnitubes International Ltd, supporting more pedestrian-first, people-focused public spaces across the UK. Smaller, more connected places. Places to pause. Spaces designed with comfort, care and visibility in mind. If this is something you’re thinking about in your own projects, I’d love to hear how you’re approaching it. #UrbanDesign #PublicRealm #Pedestrianisation #WomenInTheCity #PlaceMaking #Furnitubes Image credit: Illustration by Tanatswa Borerwe, created as part of the previous Built Barriers workshop by Part W.

Há um mês realizávamos, no Finstral Partner Studio Tecniconforto, em Lisboa, mais uma edição do Studio Architect Talk, um momento de partilha, diálogo e reflexão sobre arquitetura contemporânea. Como fabricantes de janelas, acreditamos que o verdadeiro valor nasce quando alargamos a conversa: quando falamos de luz, bem‑estar, sustentabilidade e design, colocando a arquitetura no centro e criando pontes entre indústria e projeto. Foi um privilégio contar com a participação da Arquiteta Sofia Reis Couto e do Arquiteto Joao Tiago Aguiar, que partilharam connosco a sua visão, experiência e abordagem ao processo arquitetónico, enriquecendo o debate e inspirando todos os presentes. Obrigado a todos os arquitetos e profissionais que estiveram connosco e contribuíram para tornar este encontro tão significativo. Seguimos com a mesma vontade de continuar a promover espaços de diálogo onde a arquitetura, a cultura do projeto e a colaboração se encontram.

Back in Hannover for IAA TRANSPORTATION, and it’s great to see the commercial vehicle industry coming together again. The market as we know it is changing, with truck manufacturers looking for more standardized platforms while expectations around comfort, safety and technology in the cabin continue to grow. For FORVIA, and specifically our Seating Business Group, this is an important moment to talk about where we want to go in commercial vehicles and, more importantly, how we build a strong position in this market for the long term. I’ve shared some of my thoughts on this in my latest opinion piece, including why we see a real opportunity for our Business Group to bring more value to commercial vehicles through integrated seating solutions that combine advanced technology, ergonomics, comfort and safety.

One of the things I truly enjoy about working at Foamico is seeing how small upgrades can create a massive impact, especially when hygiene, efficiency and sustainability come together. Our collaboration with Mowi over the past few years is a great example of that. We’ve helped them implement a scalable, low-maintenance cleaning setup that grows with their production and ensures consistent performance across operations. Most recently, Mowi installed Foamico Flow Guards on 22 cleaning units, a simple addition that ensures only the correct nozzle is used during the rinsing cycle. It might sound like a small detail, but the results speak for themselves: 💧 Water usage dropped from 55 L/min to 30 L/min 🌍 That’s 72.3 million litres of water saved per year 💶 Resulting in around €105,000 in annual savings I’m proud to be part of a company where thoughtful solutions make a measurable difference. 👉 If you work in food or seafood processing and want to optimise your cleaning setup, whether for performance, resource savings or both, feel free to reach out. Always happy to discuss ideas and possibilities. 📩 Message me here on LinkedIn or at [email protected].

That was the case for MY Rengøring, a Danish industrial cleaning contractor working in industries where hygiene standards are strict and time matters. Manually switching hoses between chemicals, clogged injectors and limited troubleshooting options were part of their everyday routine. It slowed down their work, increased service time and made planning almost impossible. Since partnering with Foamico, they have streamlined their cleaning process and reduced both downtime and maintenance. ✔ One handle for all operations ✔ Built for easy maintenance ✔ Stainless steel construction for long term reliability ✔ Pump display for fast and easy troubleshooting The setup is easier to operate, quicker to service and helps the team stay focused on the task instead of the tools. One detail that really caught my attention in this case is how MY Rengøring has introduced a drone based cleaning setup. It connects directly to the existing low pressure system and makes it possible to clean up to 16 metres from the ground. No lifts. No added equipment. Just a smarter way to reach difficult areas. It is a great example of how the right technology can remove frustration and create flow where it’s needed most. 📩 Curious how our low pressure systems could support smarter cleaning in your setup?

Drones are critical, but they won’t win or deter future wars on their own. What matters most is munitions depth, sustained volume of firepower, and the industrial capacity to replenish it at scale and speed. If we continue with the status quo, we risk fielding an array of systems and platforms that can’t be armed fast enough to make a difference when conflict arises. The United States must modernize and augment the energetics supply chain with new technology.

A century ago, they learned to fly. Today, we learn to believe, in technology, in progress, and in new innovations. In 1903 two brothers stood on a windy hill in North Carolina with an idea the world laughed at. Humans… flying? Impossible! Dangerous! Ridiculous! But the Wright brothers didn’t listen. They failed. Rebuilt. Tried again. And after countless attempts, they finally took off; for just 12 seconds. Twelve seconds that changed the course of humanity. Why? Because they believed in it. Today, we board airplanes without even thinking about it. What was once a dream, or even a fear, has become an essential part of our lives. In 2 weeks, I’ll step on a plane to Abu Dhabi, a city that, only twenty years ago (second pictures), was mostly sand and ambition. And yet, through vision, courage, and persistence, it transformed into one of the world’s most vibrant innovation hubs. In the first week of November, during ADIPEC 2025, we’ll display our bold idea, which we brought to life: FOCUS-1, The world’s first smart meter valve A new product. In a demanding market. And like the first flight, and developing a major city, it will take time, patience, but above all belief. Progress always starts this way, with people who dare to believe that “impossible” is just the beginning. And I believe in new innovations, new ways of thinking and simply doing things different. Not because it’s easy, but because I’ve seen what belief can build. And now it’s time for all of us to believe. Please come to visit me at the ADIPEC 2025. I am very curious to hear and understand what you drives every day and what you believe in! #ADIPEC2025 #Innovation #Digitalization #Leadership #AbuDhabi

Can our PID controller manage both flow and pressure at the same time? Yes, in certain situations we’ve already done this. For example, a customer wanted to fill a water buffer tank, but without disturbing the pressure in the surrounding network when demand was high. If the buffer filled up whenever there was a lot of water use in the neighborhood, it would reduce the available pressure in the system. To solve this, we configured the controller so that buffer filling was limited whenever network demand was high. This way, the tank could be filled without negatively affecting pressure stability. These kinds of combined flow and pressure controls are special cases, but they show what’s possible for customers who want to go a step further. If you’re interested, get in touch with us, we’ll help engineer and adapt the solution for your application. FOCUS-1 is more than just a valve… it’s a smart control solution with powerful software behind it.

We had a UAV engine manufacturer come to us recently with a DPAS-rated order. Meaning it’s tied directly to national defense and has to move fast. They needed precision shims machined to widths thinner than a human hair. Not figuratively. Literally thinner than a human hair. Our team quickly re-sequenced work on the floor and got the parts turned around quickly without sacrificing quality or traceability. This is the part of defense work people don’t always see: It’s not just the machining. It’s understanding the stakes, the compliance requirements, and the urgency behind rated orders. I’m proud of how our engineers and machinists responded in real time to make this happen. If you’re in the defense industry and need a partner who can move with that level of precision and accountability, I'm happy to connect.
