    StrEAMline 2026 Maintenance Leadership and Supervision with Andy Gager

    Knock-knock! Who's there? Andy Gager (AMG International) joins CMMSradio live from Streamline Conferences in Greenville, SC, to deliver a no-BS workshop on supervision and leadership in asset management and maintenance.You'll learn something from this real deal pro!Key HighlightsMassive gap in formal supervision training—most leaders learn on the job, leading to inconsistent motivation and discipline.Classic workforce breakdown: 20% high performers, 40% reliable, 30% newbies with potential, 10% chronic underperformers/negative—focus on quickly addressing the bottom 10% to stop toxicity from spreading.Discipline must be fast, fair, and policy-driven: direct conversations, clear expectations, and readiness to part ways if performance doesn't improve.Managers inherit long-ignored problems—delay makes them harder; sensitive-role underperformers can sabotage progress, so act decisively.Strong emphasis on communication, adherence to process, and protecting team morale—don't let negativity fester.Streamline shines as a real-deal community event: high-caliber attendees, genuine knowledge exchange, no sales noise—just practical, veteran-shared best practices for maintenance leadership.Bottom line: Leadership in maintenance isn't about being liked—it's about protecting performance, enforcing standards, and building a culture that actually works. Solid, actionable episode for supervisors tired of the same old problems.Connect with AMG International: https://amgintlco.com/

    Listening, Systems, and Real Maintenance Impact at Aetos

    CMMSradio interviews Michael Johnson, Director of Strategic Initiatives at Aetos, about his journey from hands-on marine engineering (oldest passenger ship engine rooms) to facilities management and digital twin technology. The conversation explores systems thinking, client-centric service, white-glove support, and how Aetos enables real-time facility interaction via unlimited-user digital twins—focusing on practical impact over hype. Michael shares his "ruthless curiosity" roots (hand-honing cylinders on a 93-year-old ship) and how it led to loving interconnected systems in facilities/buildings. Discussion highlights the human side of reliability/FM: listening deeply, servant leadership, high-trust teams, and treating turnover as re-onboarding opportunities.Emphasis on white-glove service: institutionalizing care through careful hiring, proactive follow-ups, flexible scheduling (e.g., 9 p.m. go-lives), and solving small client pains to build spring-in-step momentum.They cover balancing work/life by blurring lines intentionally, strong communication, calendar transparency, and high-performing trust—plus the challenge of scaling personalized service without losing DNA.Michael stresses client-first decisions: listening to both current users and industry, quick adaptations (e.g., adding colors on request), and enabling boots-on-ground execution over theoretical tools.Great episode on people-first tech, systems thinking, and sustainable client relationships in FM/CMMS space.

    AI on the Frontline Enables Time Savings, Trust, and Getting the Data Right with MaintainX

    CMMSradio interviews Peter Daigle (MaintainX Program Manager) about his journey into the industrial space, rapid industry learning through curiosity and 2,000+ customer interactions, and his article “AI is Reshaping Frontline Manufacturing. Here's What Comes Next,” focusing on realistic AI adoption barriers, benefits, and advice.Peter credits account management success to asking questions and genuine curiosity, learning manufacturing processes directly from ~2,000 customers.AI adoption has surged (from ~10% to over 50% of surveyed users), but barriers include poor data foundations, lack of trust, and waiting for “perfect” AI.Primary benefit seen: significant time savings in troubleshooting and decision-making during breakdowns.Best advice: Build a strong data foundation first, start small with AI for quick wins, keep humans in the loop to apply judgment and build trust.Find Peter Daigle or MaintainX on LinkedIn!
