Reliability Basics and AI with Fred Schenkelberg

Artificial Intelligence has become a hot topic today with organisations attempting to find ways of applying it.  The fact is, however, that a good number haven’t found a compelling case for the adaption. Fred of Accendo Reliability joins us on this episode to break down what AI means for the reliability industry.

Key highlights from this interaction are:

  • How reliability is influenced by AI
  • Why people are jumping on the ‘trend’ without looking at the relevance

196-Reliability Trends with Fred Schenkelberg

196-Reliability Trends with Fred Schenkelberg

Reliability Trends with Fred Schenkelberg

“We’re not invited on Oprah to talk about Maintenance Management … Podcasts allow us to get insights from our peers.”

In this episode, James once again interviews Fred Schenkelberg. Fred is the reliability expert at FMS Reliability, reliability engineering and management consulting firm he founded in 2004. Fred talks with us today about digital content and its role in the Reliability community.

We start by discussing the traffic levels on various topic posts and how the basics are still what attracts the most views and searches. Articles like Four Effective Risk Mitigation Strategies are getting roughly 4,500 views a month. 

Something ruminated on is the idea that these basics articles are still so popular. That higher-education is not preparing people for their fields -and while math and science are necessary to get the job done correctly, many of the relevant day-to-day skill sets and knowledge used in these industries are learned in practice and on the job.

In this episode we covered:

  • The Web Content Side of Reliability
  • The Benefits of Podcasts to Niche industries
  • Accendo and the creation of content ‘Toolboxes’

143 – The Soft Skills Reliability Engineers Need with Fred Schenkelberg

The Soft Skills Reliability Engineers Need with Fred Schenkelberg

In every industry, people skills contribute a lot to the success of an employee. The thing is that engineers and especially reliability engineers are not taught soft skills like change management and communication strategies across different facilities in the maintenance and reliability oriented organizations. The reason that engineers don’t have enough soft skills because organizations don’t have enough time or resources to do this. Most of the times, an organization just doesn’t realize how important it is to be able to communicate the procedures in the right way to the people that are concerned with it.

In this episode, we covered:

  • What are the soft skills reliability engineers need?
  • Why are these soft skills required?
  • How can a reliability engineer develop these skills?
  • What skills are most important?
  • And much more!
