15th Annual SMRP Conference
     October 7 – 10, 2007

After drawing a record 1,000-plus attendees to Birmingham, Alabama in 2006, the Society for Maintenance and Reliability Professionals (SMRP) heads to Louisville, Kentucky for its 15th Annual Conference.

Louisville's only downtown waterfront hotel, the Galt House Hotel and Suites, will host this year’s event. The 1,300-room Galt House is the largest hotel in Kentucky. It has won numerous awards and has just completed a $60 million renovation project.

Once again, the conference is highlighting speaker tracks on the five SMRP core bodies of knowledge: Business and Management; Manufacturing Process Reliability; Equipment Reliability; People Skills; and Work Management. An additional SMRP Initiatives Track, educational sessions and six full-day training workshops round out the program.

Plant tours include visits to Gallatin Steel, Raytheon, Ford Motor Company’s Kentucky Truck Plant and the National Corvette Museum/Bowling Green Assembly Plant. Tours have limited seating and are open on a first-come basis.

The conference also includes an exciting keynote presentation by former California Angels ball player John Cassis and a networking reception at the Louisville Slugger Museum.
