DESCRIPTION:Print PDFPrintFundamentals of Maintenance Management\n(2-hour\, in-person\, Williamsport\, PA) \nThis program starts in: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nIn manufacturing environments\, the effectiveness of your maintenance program directly impacts safety\, quality\, and production output. Yet\, many organizations still rely heavily on reactive approaches—responding only when equipment fails. This reactive model is not only inefficient but expensive\, often costing 5 to 10 times more than planned maintenance efforts. \nThis two-hour\, in-person workshop explores the essential building blocks of a proactive maintenance strategy. Participants will learn how to implement preventive and predictive maintenance (PM/PdM)\, reduce costly unplanned downtime\, and improve asset reliability. Whether you’re developing a maintenance program from the ground up or fine-tuning an existing one\, this session will provide practical insights and foundational tools to support long-term operational excellence. \nWhy It Matters \n\n90% of typical maintenance work is reactive\, leading to higher costs and production delays.\nPreventative maintenance extends equipment life and postpones major capital expenditures.\nMaintenance management is not just a support function—it’s a mission-critical investment in uptime\, safety\, and performance.\n\nRegister \nRegister now for this free\, in-person event!\nWorkshop Topics:\n\nIntroduction to Maintenance Excellence\nFundamentals of Maintenance Management\nPreventive vs. Predictive Maintenance (PM & PdM)\nMaintenance Planning and Scheduling\nRoot Cause Analysis (RCA) in Maintenance\nMethodical Troubleshooting\n\nLearning Objectives:\n\nUnderstand the cost implications of reactive vs. proactive maintenance.\nLearn how to build or improve a preventive and predictive maintenance strategy.\nExposure tools for effective planning\, scheduling\, and work prioritization.\n\nWho should attend?\nEngineering Managers\, Maintenance Managers\, Plant Managers\, Maintenance Supervisors and Technicians\, Reliability Engineers\, and anyone responsible for asset uptime\, performance\, and maintenance strategy. \nInstructor:\n \nLarry Bouvier\, CRL\, CMRP\nVice President\, Fuss & O’Neill Manufacturing Solutions\, LLC \nLarry Bouvier is a dynamic and hands-on leader in plant engineering and maintenance with over 14 years as Vice President at Fuss & O’Neill Manufacturing Solutions.

SUMMARY:Energy Industry Overview Map - Natural Gas: Upstream
DESCRIPTION:Print PDFPrintThe upstream sector of the natural gas industry refers to the initial phases of the entire value chain\, primarily involving exploration\, drilling\, and extraction of natural gas and crude oil from underground reservoirs. It includes activities such as geological surveys\, seismic studies to locate reserves\, test drilling\, and actual extraction of raw natural gas from the earth. This webinar will highlight the industry activity\, walk through the processes\, and identify areas of opportunities for manufacturers to engage in the shale energy supply chain. \nThe Energy & Manufacturing in Appalachia (EMA) project helps manufactures understand and navigate opportunities in the vast energy supply chains. The EMA team\, along with outside experts\, have developed supply chain maps for each energy segment or sub-segment to help manufacturers navigate these industry sectors. \nThe supply chain maps provide introductory overview of the market size\, key drivers\, supply chain needs\, and components for each of the specific segments. Additional resources are provided to learn more about the industry and keep up-to-date on the latest advancements\, opportunities\, and potential funding opportunities as well. \nThe webinar will explore an understanding of the different types of data centers\, regional market potential\, and a look at the different components required for the energy needs\, construction\, and internal hardware\, cooling and operations. \nRegister \nThis Natural Gas: Upstream supply chain overview was drafted by Matt Henderson of Henderson Consulting. Matt has been engaged in the shale energy supply chain for nearly 20 years helping businesses explore\, expand\, and engage in opportunities in the natural gas industry. His work has taken him all across the Appalachian Basin as well as globally explaining the drilling process\, impacts\, benefits\, and opportunities for manufacturers and businesses. \nPrint PDFPrint

SUMMARY:Energy Industry Overview Map - AI Data Centers: Advanced Cooling
DESCRIPTION:Print PDFPrintThis webinar will focus on the advanced cooling and thermal management needs for AI Data Centers. Data centers require advanced cooling solutions—such as direct-to-chip liquid cooling\, microchannel cold plates\, and pumped two-phase systems—to efficiently manage heat from high-power CPUs and GPUs.\nRack-level cooling technologies\, including forced convection\, heat pipes\, and thermosyphons\, are critical for supporting high-density server racks and ensuring reliable thermal performance. Facility-level systems like CRAHs\, CRACs\, dry coolers\, and cooling towers handle large-scale heat loads while maximizing energy efficiency and maintaining precise temperature control. Integration of smart controls and monitoring enables scalable operations\, improved energy management\, and supports evolving data center infrastructure needs. \nThe Energy & Manufacturing in Appalachia (EMA) project helps manufactures understand and navigate opportunities in the vast energy supply chains. The EMA team\, along with outside experts\, have developed supply chain maps for each energy segment or sub-segment to help manufacturers navigate these industry sectors. \nThe supply chain maps provide introductory overview of the market size\, key drivers\, supply chain needs\, and components for each of the specific segments. \nRegister \nThe AI Data Centers: Advanced Cooling was drafted by Dr. Deborah Stine. Deb is the Founder of the Science & Technology Policy Academy which provides independent consulting\, policy analysis\, program evaluation\, freelance writing\, teaching\, and coaching services. Previously\, she served in the Obama White House as Executive Director of the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) that led to the establishment of the Advanced Manufacturing Partnership and the creation of the Manufacturing USA Institutes. \nPrint PDFPrint
