Back when I served as a production supervisor, a key responsibility of mine was drafting operator line-ups for the second and third shifts, as well as weekends. My primary objective was to create a standardized format rich in detail, aiming to preempt those dreaded 3 a.m. pager calls for mundane inquiries. Equally important was empowering operators with the necessary information to navigate potential challenges during off-shifts, all while maintaining my own sanity. Rather than reacting harshly to routine errors made by off-shift operators, I adopted a proactive approach. Upon encountering such situations, I conducted thorough reviews of the issue and decision-making process. Subsequently, I worked collaboratively with the team to highlight opportunities for improvement, fostering a culture of continuous learning and development. Fast forward to today, technological advancements have revolutionized our ability to deliver work instructions electronically. Operators now have instant access to clear instructions upon logging into the system, including details on production targets, destination, end customers, and a summary of any alerts or issues from the preceding shift. Reflecting on the progress made, it's gratifying to see how far we've come. Thankfully, pagers, once an integral part of our communication system, are now relegated to the annals of history, symbolizing the evolution and improvement of our operational practices.

Reliability Engineer |Fixed Plant Maintenance Planner & Strategist| Asset Management | Certified Reliability Professional | Engineering Management | Leadership
Are you looking to improve your fixed plant operational maintenance? Prioritizing maintenance tasks is key to supporting reliability. Non-critical equipment or unlikely failures shouldn't be as high priority as those involving critical assets. Focus preventive maintenance efforts towards reducing failures that represent significant risks to your operations. When it comes to maintenance planning, keep in mind that it's not just about setting a schedule. A maintenance planner should be out on-site, fully aware of potential issues that could complicate the job. Access or safety problems could arise, so having someone who understands planning principles and has ordered thinking and communication skills is crucial. If you're ready to hire a planner or evaluate your current planning position, consider these critical characteristics: experience, understanding of planning principles, being a people person, and having ordered thinking and communication skills. Don't underestimate the importance of having the right person in this role.
