Ability to: describe the company's approach to equipment maintenance collect information on equipment maintenance requirements to identify routine lubrication and servicing requirements as appropriate analyse equipment maintenance data, such as the use of data analysis techniques to plot and interpret trends and patterns in equipment performance identify components of the maintenance program and related responsibilities for implementation, such as equipment monitoring, lubrication schedules, routine servicing and cleaning schedules and breakdown or emergency response (implementation is typically shared between production and maintenance personnel and/or external service providers) identify and confirm resource requirements to meet maintenance requirements, including the nature of maintenance tasks involved to identify the required maintenance equipment, materials/consumables and competenciesand where required,identify and liaise with external maintenance service providers confirm that personnel with the required competencies are available to conduct maintenance activities, such as reporting and/or developing competencies required to implement the maintenance schedule, and where required, manage contracts with maintenance providers develop a schedule for equipment maintenance to support reliable equipment performance with minimal disruption to production, including consulting relevant personnel to confirm schedule feasibility, and notifying relevant personnel of any possibility that maintenance cannot be completed within scheduled timeframe record and communicate the schedule in appropriate formats, such as use of software, and communicating information to meet workplace and audience requirements ensure that operating procedures are available and include information on occupational health and safety (OHS), environmental management and food safety requirements and responsibilities monitor maintenance activities against the schedule to identify variances and take appropriate corrective action, such as assessing the consequences of any adjustments to the schedule, and where required, monitor completion of maintenance within maintenance budget constraints respond to unplanned events, such as major equipment breakdowns to minimise disruption and optimise efficiency communicate maintenance requirements and report outcomes, including ensuring effective communication between production and maintenance personnel to enhance equipment reliability and identify improvement opportunities use planning and systems control software use communication skills to interpret and complete work information to support operations of work team or area demonstrate and support cooperative work practices within a culturally diverse workforce |
