  1. Why did you decide to do a webinar with us?

I attended one of your previous webinars. It’s a great way of sharing information across a wide audience. Being able to interact with the presenters and getting feedback to comments or issues you may have on hand makes these sessions worthwhile the time.

  1. What will the audience gain from attending your webinar?

Spare parts represent probably 2/3 of the non-fuel operating cost of a GT power plant. Getting away from the traditional “remove-repair-replace” without signing up to LTSA’s and the like, is rather difficult. EE has developed a few alternative parts solutions which ensure your capital is efficiently deployed across your asset. I will be presenting some case studies where EE parts solutions have created a robust bridge between operational and commercial requirements.

  1. What is your favourite thing about presenting to a live audience?

I would like to say “The possibility to look each other in the eyes”. In case of this webinar, and looking at the truly “worldwide audience”, I am encouraged to see that the topic is “universal”. I hope sharing some, I like to call them “Best Practices”, will initiate some thoughts in the audience of getting them to introduce “optimization tools” in to their respective organisations.

  1. What motivates you?

Getting out of bed … seeing my kids venturing off to new endeavors with a SMILE. Giving “my” customers a “WOW” experience and at the same time building robust relationships … that is probably the shortest statement on this question!

Markus will be presenting EthosEnergy webinar ‘Reducing Risks and Costs Inherent in Your Parts Management Strategy’. You can register for their webinar taking place on the 12th March at  11am New York/3pm London here.
