- Define and monitor service levels, response expectations, work completion, schedule compliance, downtime, preventive maintenance effectiveness, and other relevant performance measures.
- Lead root cause analysis and corrective actions for significant or recurring failures. Verify that actions are completed and deliver the intended result.
- Manage spare parts and critical inventory to balance equipment risk, availability, obsolescence, and working capital.
- Lead maintenance-related capital projects from scope development through installation, commissioning, documentation, training, and financial closeout. Deliver projects safely, on time, and within approved budget.
- Manage vendors and contractors to ensure safe, compliant designs, competitive cost, quality execution, documentation, and adherence to site requirements.
- Evaluate and implement technology, automation, and maintenance practices that improve reliability, energy efficiency, productivity, or cost performance.
- Partner with Operations to improve equipment availability, coordinate production priorities, eliminate waste, and maintain clear communication between departments.
