At a time of defence cuts and streamlining… ...can you afford to
ignore how your colleagues are making their assets more cost-effective and
efficient?
DEMO 2005 is an inaugural conference from WBR (the producers
of the largest Defence Logistics event in the industry). DEMO will address the
changes and practices that are taking place in the maintenance of platforms,
weapons systems and equipment and will demonstrate how the military are
applying innovative solutions to execute their maintenance requirements for an
industry who increasingly demand streamlined, cost-efficient processes in the
light of major budgetary cuts.
With over 34 leading industry experts
from around the globe this is an event that's not to be missed if you deal with
maintenance, repair of overhaul. Here are just some of DEMO's key
presenters:

maintainability, topics such as techniques, interoperability, CLS, asset
management, battlefield maintenance, safety, storage and training will be
addressed.
PLUS - our unique focus day: "Successfully Integrating The
Right Balance Of Maintenance Techniques To Streamline Your Repair And Overhaul
Functions"…
Truly unique in its focus, DEMO 2005 is the first
large-scale event of its kind to balance logistical and commercial contracting
aspects of maintenance with significant close-up, technical content. Instead of
rehearsing the same tired arguments for RCM or assessing the pros and cons of
PLCS, this day will offer you the chance to see how you can integrate the
optimum maintenance strategies to create the most effective bespoke maintenance
strategy for your needs.
In-Depth Programme With Special Focus On:
- RCM
- Product Lifecycle Support
- Proactive versus Reactive Maintenance
- MRO
- Interoperability
- PPP
- Contractor Logistic Support
- Asset Management
- Spares
- Battlefield Maintenance
- Safety
- Training
- Operation Iraqi Freedom
- End-to-End Management
- Lean Management
These informative three days will offer up case studies on how
maintenance has been successfully carried in the theatre of operations in
recent conflicts including Iraq, Afghanistan and the Balkans. With 34 leading
speakers from around the world, this is Europe's largest event dedicated to
exploring and overcoming the challenges surrounding maintenance, engineering,
overhaul and repair within the defence industry.
" If you handle maintenance, repair or overhaul on a day to
day basis or are in charge of its implementation - this is the one event that
you cannot afford to miss"
Admiral Giancarlo Cecchi, Chief of the Naval
Logistic Inspectorate, ITALIAN NAVY
