ATLANTA, Ga. – Registration is open for the SMRP 30th Annual Conference, taking place in Raleigh, NC, October 17-20, 2022. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn from more than 80 experts in maintenance, reliability and physical asset management during 170 hours of ‎track sessions and workshops.

The four-day event will host over 80 presenters from around the world, including keynote speaker, Mike Abrashoff. In 12 months, Mike helped turn around the worst performing ship in the Navy to the best – using the same crew.

A tour of Novo Nordisk API in Clayton, NC and networking events will also be offered for the chance to connect with other practitioners and the 100+ exhibitors registered to attend.
