"Our Best Asset is Retiring in 18 Months" His name is probably Gary. Or Dale. Or Miguel. He's been here 30 years. • He knows which pump sounds "off" before the sensors catch it. • He knows the vendor who can get parts nobody else can find. • He knows why we don't store certain chemicals next to each other (because of "the incident"). None of this is documented. And he's retiring in 18 months. We were at a refinery recently doing an inventory review. Pulled up a part record. Item description said, "Contact Dale before reordering." Asked who Dale was. Turns out Dale passed away several years ago. That's the plan. That's the documentation. That's what we're working with. We spend millions on systems and technology. But the most valuable database in your facility might be walking out the door with a retirement cake. Or already gone. What's your plan to capture it?
