Job Picture
Growth and decay are fundamental realities. All living things in their specific form perform something unique to their species. When they are dead, they all undergo the same process of decomposition into their fundamental molecular components. These components no longer perform tasks related to the living organism. Nature is responsible for life and renewal in each species as well as the process of decomposition.
The link
Our equipment is also designed to perform very specific functions repeatedly and reliably. New equipment, whether operated or not, starts decaying immediately, unlike living beings. Maintenance needs to be the life force behind our plant and equipment’s’ specific physical existence with the aim of giving it renewal and sustainability, whether from wear and tear or damage.
We will measure our effectiveness using plant availability.
Critical Success Factors.
- Know and understand the plant and equipment design and technical specifications and standards.
2. Need to understand and manage the spare components/parts supply chain.
3. Measure and report.
- Assemble, install, test, and maintain electrical or electronic wiring, equipment, appliances, apparatus, and fixtures, using hand tools and power tools.
- Inspect drives, motors, and belts, check fluid levels, replace filters, and perform other maintenance actions, following checklists.
- Diagnose mechanical problems and determine how to correct them, checking blue prints, repair manuals, and parts catalogs as necessary.
- Ensure that calibration of cement & trolley scales happens on a weekly basis.
- Health and Safety
