Wastewater plants have gotten away with reactive maintenance for decades. That’s changing. In this episode of Reliability 4.0, Lauren Michael from City of Cedar Rapids shares how her team is building a proactive reliability culture inside a 45-year-old wastewater treatment plant.
Lauren explains why executive sponsorship was critical to launching their reliability transformation, and how involving leadership from the very beginning helped create buy-in across operations, finance, HR, and city leadership.
We discuss:
🔸 Why many wastewater plants are still operating reactively
🔸 How Cedar Rapids launched “Program Phoenix” to improve reliability
🔸 Why executive sponsorship must start at kickoff—not after the fact
🔸 How RCA helped shift the culture away from blame
🔸 Why wastewater operators need reliability more than ever as infrastructure ages
If your organization is trying to improve asset performance while working with aging infrastructure and limited resources, this episode is full of practical lessons.
