As we celebrate Global Maintenance Day 2025, the words of Thanasis Naskos, Chief Innovation Officer at Atlantis Engineering, feel more relevant than ever:
In today’s industrial landscape, maintenance must go beyond simply adopting new digital tools. It should foster a mindset centered on prevention, continuous improvement, and strategic value creation.
“Technology only matters when it is applied meaningfully and effectively,” he notes.
At Atlantis Engineering, this belief shapes our commitment to an approach to maintenance that generates real business value and competitive advantage — across every industrial operation.
From Concept to Practice: Embedding Technology into Daily Operations
Atlantis Engineering consistently invests in close, long-term collaboration with client teams, not simply as a provider of maintenance solutions, but as a strategic partner driving transformation.
“When you see a solution operating within a live production environment, you gain a deeper understanding of its true capabilities and benefits. Practical, real-world experience is what builds trust and unlocks new paths to innovation,” says Thanasis.
The Value of Knowledge Exchange
For Atlantis Engineering, maintenance is not an isolated process. It is a dynamic system of interaction between people, technology, and knowledge.
“Conversations between technical professionals from different organizations reveal that, while operational needs vary, the core challenges remain the same. Through this cross-pollination of experiences, new ideas and solutions emerge that would not be discovered in isolation.”
From Implementation to Strategic Readiness
Thanasis explains:
“The barriers today are no longer about the value of technology itself — they centre on whether an organization feels ready to take the next step. That’s where we come in. Not simply as solution providers, but as trusted advisors, offering guidance, expertise, and collaboration tailored to each organization’s unique context.”
Building a Smarter Maintenance Ecosystem
Implementing tools such as AIMMS CMMS provides a solid foundation for building a smarter, more structured approach to maintenance.
At the next stage, advanced solutions such as Sibyl — our industrial data analysis platform — complement this digital ecosystem by delivering powerful predictive insights and business intelligence to further enhance strategic decision-making and enable optimal data-driven operations.
The Next Evolution of Maintenance: Connectivity, Automation, and Predictive Analysis
“The next step is full-scale data utilization. Not just to prevent failures, but to support strategic decision-making at every level. Predictive maintenance is no longer a luxury — it is the cornerstone of industrial resilience,” says Thanasis.
Conclusion
At Atlantis Engineering, we do not view maintenance as static or confined. We see it as a means of continuous adaptation, learning, and progress.
As we mark Global Maintenance Day 2025, we share our vision:
To build an industrial landscape where people and technology work together toward a sustainable future.
Maintain Today. Sustain Tomorrow.
