214. Disrupting Manufacturing and Old School Thinking. Adam Livesay

What are the differences between the old and new manufacturing?  What is IoT and a technology stack? What solutions are you providing, that’s what people want to know!  Manufacturing was lagging in technology and not a lot of people were jumping into it.  Ripe for disrupting!  Cloud technology has changed everything in the industrial space!  Adapt or go out of business!

What's it like to work with family and create good culture for millennials in a connected world?  Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space For Controversy!

Adam Livesay is the cofounder of Elevāt.IoT, a keynote speaker, and when he's not working he enjoys bonding over sports, coaching, and skiing.

Adam Livesay has made a name for himself in the IoT world, specifically as it applies to use with heavy commercial equipment.  Adam co-founded Elevāt.IoT to partner with OEMs and Fleets to bring ready-to-use, big-picture solutions to real business problems. 

Before Elevāt, Adam was at Western Integrated Technologies (WIT), an industrial manufacturing and integration company.  During his time at WIT, Adam saw that its customers, OEMs of heavy commercial equipment, were plagued by a limited ability to see, in real-time, what went on with their machines once they were out in the field.  This limitation hampered their ability to know when the machines were off-line, prevent costly repairs, recommend scheduled maintenance, and identify when to replace parts. 

Adam understood that eliminating this pain point would help his customers save time and money, spot trends earlier, and determine what improvements to make on future machines - critical components of staying competitive. That's why Elevāt was born.

Adam believes in using every one of the 1440 minutes he has in a day wisely, and he helps his customers do the same.  He created a ready-to-go platform that works with the customer's existing process and business model instead of handing them a burdensome and time-consuming learning curve.

Elevāt's platform allows customers to get valuable feedback and quickly make improvements that relate to in-field realities, increase productivity and safety, and reduce the time between equipment failures.
