To turn research into real-world impacts – that is what has driven Dr. Edzel Lapira throughout his career and what motivated him to start Predictronics more than five years ago. Since then, Dr. Lapira has been at the forefront of bringing predictive maintenance solutions to the market, enabling businesses in various industries to make data-driven decisions that give them a competitive edge.

Dr. Lapira completed a doctorate in industrial engineering at the University of Cincinnati, where he studied at the Center for Intelligent Maintenance Systems (IMS), a world-renowned research center in industrial predictive analytics. As Predictronics’ Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Lapira aims to deliver tools that provide fast, accurate insights that increase productivity and reduce downtime.

The understanding that science is what ultimately drives our world is what encouraged Patrick Brown to start Predictronics. Since its beginning stages, Patrick has used his financial and logistical skills to advance the company’s interests and eliminate customers' anxieties over downtime. For Patrick, it is Predictronics’ unprecedented combination of business, technology and mechanical knowledge that sets it apart.

Patrick completed a bachelor’s in creative writing at the University of Cincinnati, where he also works as program director for the Center for Intelligent Maintenance Systems (IMS), a world-renowned research center in industrial predictive analytics he has served for the past 10 years. As Predictronics’ Chief Financial Officer, Patrick believes companies can harness power over the bottom line by becoming familiar with the processes and factors that impact it.

Kelly Campbell was convinced Predictronics would revolutionize the industrial space through predictive analytics. After working with the University of Cincinnati’s Center for Intelligent Maintenance Systems (IMS) to identify the right team, Campbell assisted Predictronics’ executives to transform their research into real-world impacts.

With more than 20 years of experience in developing and maintaining client relations, Campbell’s business advice and work securing investments was instrumental to the formation of the company. As Predictronics’ Vice President of Business Development, Campbell is committed to further developing the business so that more customers can use information to make strategic decisions.
