MARTS seeks qualified industry practitioners and consultants to present during the Conference program. Conference presentations are scheduled for 60-minute periods over two days (Wednesday and Thursday, April 27 & 28, 2011). Presentations should be approximately 45 minutes long, with 15 minutes for Q&A, and should be accompanied by a PowerPoint program.

MARTS presentations cannot be promotional; they must address the needs of the MARTS audience and answer questions plant professionals might have, such as those relating to maintenance, reliability, repairability, sustainability, energy efficiency and regulatory compliance, among others. Presentations deemed too commercial will not be accepted.
