implement a failure-modes driven maintenance strategy for any piece of equipment.
A proactive maintenance technician uses knowledge and experience to ensure the maintenance process is optimized by making constructive recommendations to
management concerning improvement areas.
To ensure success, a proactive maintenance technician is proactive in everything he or she does. This person constantly reviews information to ensure procedures are accurate and issues are resolved quickly and does what is required to ensure the work is repeatable. Such a professional leads by example and takes responsibility for training new employees on how to be a proactive and effective maintenance technician.
Every wondered what the life of a Proactive Maintenance Technician looks like. This article was written based on my experience as a Proactive Maintenance Technician.
The Business Continuity Conference, 25th October 2023 in Riyadh - Abdulrahma...Continuity and Resilience
Lessons from a Chief Continuity Officer-
A Chief Continuity Officer (CCO) is responsible for ensuring that an organization's critical operations continue despite any disruptions or crises.
1. Build a robust business continuity plan.
2. Foster a culture of preparedness.
3. Establish clear roles and responsibilities.
4. Develop strong partnerships.
5. Implement robust technology systems.
6. Continuously assess and mitigate risks.
7. Communicate effectively.
8. Learn from incidents.
Remember, flexibility and adaptability are key in the ever-changing landscape of continuity management. As a CCO, it's essential to stay proactive, be prepared for unexpected events, and continuously improve the organization's ability to recover and thrive in the face of disruptions.
The disaster recovery plan guides managers and employees in the management of responses to various disasters that may occur in the course of business operations. The term disaster refers to any event that results in a disruption in the ability to provide normal services. A disaster may range in scope and duration from relatively minor, such as a temporary power outage, to a catastrophic event that interrupts service for a long period of time. Regardless of the magnitude of the business interruption, it must be managed.
Maintenance Skills Training for industry is a hot subject right now. In many areas of the country, companies are competing for skilled maintenance personnel.
“A Deloitte study found that the skills gap may leave an estimated 2.4 million positions unfilled between 2018 and 2028, with a potential economic impact of $2.5 trillion”
The skill level of the maintenance personnel in most companies is well below what industry would say is acceptable. In the past, I have been involved with the assessment of the skill level for hundreds of maintenance personnel in the U.S. and Canada and found 80% of the people assessed scored less than 50% of where they need to be in the basic technical skills to perform their jobs. The literacy level of maintenance personnel is also a problem. In some areas of the United States we find that up to 40% of maintenance personnel in a plant are reading below the eighth grade level. After performing the Gunning FOG index, we find the reading level for mechanical maintenance personnel should be the twelfth year level and electrical maintenance personnel the fourteenth year level (associate degree).

Roles And Responsibilities Of First Line Maintenance Supervisor
1. Roles and Responsibilities of First-Line Maintenance Supervisor
1. Directs the maintenance work force and provides on-site expertise.
When maintenance craft workers are working on an assignment and have
questions or need clarification about how to perform a task, the first-line maintenance
foreman or supervisor should be able to provide the guidance. The first-line
maintenance foreman or supervisor is also responsible for making individual job
assignments and tracking the progress of individual craft assignments.
2. Ensures that work is accomplished in a safe and efficient manner.
The first-line maintenance foreman or supervisor is also responsible for seeing
that each craft worker for whom he or she has responsibility works safely and is
provided the information, tools, and direction to work efficiently.
3. Reviews work planning and scheduling with the planner.
The first-line maintenance foreman or supervisor is also responsible for providing
feedback to the maintenance planner to ensure that job plans are efficient and effective
and that scheduling is accurate.
4. Ensures quality of work.
While most maintenance craft workers will perform quality work, on occasion they
are pressured to take shortcuts. The first-line maintenance foreman or supervisor is
there to ensure they have the proper time to do a quality job the first time.
5. Ensures equipment availability is adequate to meet the profit plan.
Quite plainly, this task assigns responsibility for the equipment or asset uptime to
the first-line maintenance foreman or supervisor. Communication should be established
and maintained with production to meet their availability needs.
6. Works with plant or production supervision to ensure first-line maintenance is
being performed by operators.
If the production or operations group is performing first-line maintenance on their
equipment, the first-line maintenance foreman or supervisor has a responsibility to
ensure the work is really being performed, is being performed safely, and is being
performed to the appropriate standards.
7. Verifies the qualifications of hourly personnel and recommends training as
needed.
When making individual work assignments and observing the craft workers performing
these assignments, the first-line maintenance foreman or supervisor should be able to
observe training needs. As these training needs are identified, it is up to the first-line
maintenance supervisor to see to it that the appropriate training is provided as required.

2. 8. Enforces environmental regulations.
As part of the management team, the first-line maintenance foreman or
supervisor has the responsibility of ensuring that all maintenance craft workers observe
all environmental regulations. This includes ensuring appropriate documentation, work
practices, and procedures.
9. Focuses downward and is highly visible in the field.
It is a responsibility of the first-line maintenance foreman or supervisor to
manage the maintenance craft workers at least six hours per day, with no more that 2
hours per day spent on paperwork or meetings. This is know as the 6/2 rule. It is not
cost-effective to have the first-line maintenance supervisor performing clerical
paperwork as the major part of their work.
10. Champions proactive maintenance vs. reactive maintenance.
The first-line maintenance foreman or supervisor also has a responsibility to
encourage all production or operations personnel to turn in work to be planned and
scheduled. Doing this is designed to prevent production or operations personnel from
requesting work in a “do it now” or reactive mode and helps to ensure that maintenance
is planned, scheduled, and performed in the most cost-effective manner.
11. Administers the union collective bargaining agreement.
As a management representative, the first-line maintenance foreman or
supervisor is responsible for seeing that the components of any collective bargaining
are carried out.
12. Monitors the CMMS
It is also the responsibility of the first-line maintenance foreman or supervisor to
ensure that all data collected by the hourly employees assigned to him or her is
accurate and complete when being entered into the CMMS.
13. Implements preventive and predictive maintenance programs.
The first-line maintenance foreman or supervisor is responsible for ensuring that
the craft workers are qualified, and that the crew has the skills necessary, to perform the
appropriate preventive and predictive maintenance tasks. In addition, the first-line
maintenance foreman or supervisor and the crew have a responsibility to improve the
preventive and predictive maintenance program constantly. This responsibility may
range from improving the individual steps on a preventive maintenance task to
implementing new technology for predictive maintenance.

3. The above 13 tasks have been reproduced from Terry Wireman’s Book Developing
Performance Indicators for Managing Maintenance (1) with his permission. I have
added a 14th below. I am certain all of you will have additions and subtractions from Mr.
Wireman’s list as well. That is really the point of this post, to compile and share the key
expectations for our frontline leaders to set the stage for their success and the overall
success of our organizations.
14. Develop people.
The first-line maintenance foreman or supervisor is responsible for developing
leadership, teamwork and establishing effective communication skills within the crew.
The responsibility extends to instilling a high level of pride and ownership within the
craftsmen and developing an environment where the crew is expected and rewarded for
thinking and efficiently solving problems.
