Course overview
Predictive maintenance promises fewer breakdowns and lower costs, but many pilots never scale. This course explains how condition data, machine learning and digital twins can predict failures, estimate remaining useful life and optimise maintenance and renewal decisions. Participants learn what data is needed, how to assess vendors and how to build a business case that operations will support.
