At Connixt, we believe maintenance strategy should move as fast as the operations it supports, and most multimodal operations move across trucking fleets, rail assets, and the yards and terminals connecting them, often within the same shipment.
G Satish (CEO & Founder), Evan Ufkes (Business Development), and Andrey Ososkov (Account Executive) presented a live, unscripted panel conversation on what it actually takes to maintain fleet, rail, and facilities assets without three separate blind spots.
The panel makes the case that most downtime doesn’t come from one catastrophic failure. It comes from missed inspection windows, delayed parts, and maintenance data that never made it from the field to the office in time to act, compounding across modes that were never built to talk to each other in the first place.
Key topics covered:
- Why maintenance strategy hasn’t kept pace with how multimodal operations actually run today
- Where fragmentation between fleet managers, rail asset teams, and facilities staff creates blind spots
- Where unplanned downtime really comes from, and why it’s rarely one catastrophic failure
- What technicians on the ground are dealing with day to day, and why that matters more than the org chart above them
- Where AI is genuinely changing maintenance outcomes today, and where it’s still more promise than proof
- What’s uniquely demanding about rail, fleet, and facilities maintenance on their own terms
- What it would take to run all three from a single, unified system of record
