Fix Maintenance Process First with Mark Kingkade on CMMSradio

CMMSradio sits down with Mark Kingkade (Maintenance Expert & Consultant) with Waites to dig into what it really takes to transform maintenance beyond buzzwords and into business impact. We challenge the idea that technology alone can fix maintenance issues, stressing that leadership, discipline, and cultural alignment must come first.People & Process First! Tech is an amplifier, not a fix.Actionable measures like wrench time, PM compliance, and cost per unit.Maintenance Maturity: You can’t leapfrog steps — build stability first, then optimize.Without executive support, improvements won’t stick.True transformation sticks only if behaviors & expectations are clear and reinforced.The Real: Maintenance excellence isn’t a software upgrade — it’s a discipline, a culture, and a leadership commitment.
