FirstShift is about where maintenance goes next, so we’ve brought together the people building that future at Connixt. It’s Connixt’s exclusive, invite-only customer event, happening virtually on November 17 at 11 AM PST.

Our CEO G. Satish and CTO Prabu Ekambaram will share the thinking behind iMarq and iBot and where both are headed. Evan Ufkes and Andrey Ososkov, who spend their days alongside maintenance teams in shops and yards, will bring the field perspective on what crews actually need next.

It’s an hour built around the people who know the work best. That’s you, our customers, and the team behind the platform you use every day.

Our customers will receive their invitations directly, and spots are limited. If you’d like to join us, request your spot at https://hubs.ly/Q04BMzjy0 and our team will be in touch. Let’s go further, together!

Every maintenance day starts with a first shift: the crew clocking in, assets waiting, work orders lined up. We’ve borrowed that idea for something we’ve been looking forward to all year.

Introducing FirstShift Fall 2026: Where the Crew, Assets, and AI Go Next. It’s an invite-only event for Connixt customers on Tuesday, November 17, at 11:00 AM PST.

It’s a chance to step back from the day-to-day and look ahead together at what’s next for the field crew, for the assets they keep running, and for the role AI will play in that work.

We’d love to see you there: https://hubs.ly/Q04BMz0c0

Some moments are worth pausing for, and this is one of them. 🚀
We’re excited to announce FirstShift - Fall 2026, a virtual, invite-only event on Tuesday, November 17 at 11:00 a.m. PST.

Every maintenance team runs on two things: the assets that keep operations moving and the crews who keep those assets in service. FirstShift celebrates how far we’ve come together and looks at where we’re headed next.

Join G Satish, Prabu Ekambaram, Andrey Ososkov, and Evan Ufkes for a first look at the iMarq Fall 2026 Release, an inside view of what’s planned for 2027, and how AI is starting to work alongside crews in the field and teams in the back office. You’ll also hear real stories from people across industries and help shape what comes next.

This one means a lot to us, and we’d love for you to be part of it. Because FirstShift is invite-only, request your spot through the link below and our team will be in touch. 👇

Tires are one of the most expensive line items in any fleet, and most DVIR defects still turn into a phone call, a dispatcher relay, and a delay before a technician even knows there's a problem.

Our 2026 Summer Release changes that.

The new Tires module tracks full lifecycle history by position, and our Isaac Instruments integration turns a logged defect into a work order automatically, location pin included, no dispatcher relay required.

Less time chasing down what happened on the road. More time keeping trucks moving. See how it works:

This update tackles three of the biggest friction points in fleet maintenance: tracking your most expensive components, closing the gap between the road and

Utility assets don't fail on a schedule. Poles, transformers, cables, and switchgear age at different rates across an entire service territory, and for years, most utilities have managed all of it the same way: fix what breaks, inspect what's due.

That model is running out of runway. The real bottleneck isn't a lack of sensors, it's maintenance data still scattered across systems that don't talk to each other, leaving crews and planners working off two different versions of the truth.

We broke down what it actually takes to move from calendar-based inspections to a real, unified view of grid health:

Utility assets age unpredictably, yet most utilities still rely on scheduled inspections and reactive repairs. The real barrier to smarter maintenance isn't sensor technology but fragmented data spread across disconnected systems. Connecting inspection records, work orders, and asset histories into....

Oil and gas assets don't sit in neat, accessible rows. They're spread across shale fields in Texas, oil sands in Alberta, and refineries that have been running for decades, and that geography alone makes maintenance a logistical puzzle before you even factor in aging infrastructure or tightening regulations.

Add in a cyclical industry where maintenance budgets get deferred every time prices dip, plus a shrinking pool of skilled technicians, and it's easy to see why "run to failure" quietly becomes the default instead of the exception.

The operators pulling ahead aren't necessarily spending more. They're spending smarter. Real-time asset visibility, predictive maintenance, and remote monitoring are turning reactive fire drills into planned work, even across the most remote sites.

We broke down exactly where the pressure points are and what's actually working for teams tackling them: https://hubs.li/Q04qZzF30

Keeping the yard running shouldn't mean choosing between efficiency and compliance.

That's the idea Alexandria David and Evan Ufkes broke down earlier this week in "Keeping the Yard Running: Smart Maintenance for Terminals, Warehouses, and Distribution Centers."

The idea: inspections shouldn't sit separately from maintenance work, they should turn into an audit-ready record automatically, no extra steps for technicians.

Thank you to Alexandria and Evan for walking through how this plays out across rail, transit, and fleet yards.

A study published in Sensors puts a number on something facilities teams already feel: poorly maintained building systems can waste 20 to 30 percent more energy than they should. Not from major failures, from small operational drift that never gets caught.

https://hubs.li/Q04pC07y0

That drift is expensive precisely because it's invisible. A missed filter swap or an unlogged fault code doesn't show up until it's already a utility bill or a failed audit, by which point the cause is impossible to trace.

The researchers' conclusion lines up with what we see in the field: the bottleneck isn't the maintenance work, it's whether the data behind it is real-time, accurate, and reaches the right people.

Having a platform equipped to log inspections and work orders the moment they happen, straight from a technician's phone, helps supervisors see what's overdue in real time instead of in a weekly report, and the audit-ready record already exists when you need it.

The operation and maintenance of buildings has seen several advances in recent years. Multiple information and communication technology (ICT) solutions have been introduced to better manage building maintenance. However, maintenance practices in ...

Your fleet's data infrastructure is stronger than ever.

The next frontier is not more data. It is making sure that data reaches your crew at the exact moment they need to act on it.

A fault code that takes four hours to become a work order is not a technology problem. It is a workflow problem. And solving it is where the most significant maintenance performance gains are being made in 2026.

We unpacked the ex*****on opportunity in our latest piece: what high-performing fleets are doing differently, and how the mobile-first approach is changing what field maintenance looks like in practice.
