Challenge
A nationwide distribution network expanded automation with ASRS, robotics, and high‑speed conveyors but lacked a defined maintenance training path. Skills varied widely, causing delays in diagnosing faults and restoring flow, and safety compliance gaps existed in LOTO, electrical work, and heavy‑equipment operation.
Solution
A robust maintenance and safety competency program: JTA and job descriptions for all technician levels; standardized exams and progression pathways; development of LOTO, OSHA, and electrical safe‑work procedures; ASRS, conveyor, and crane‑specific certification programs; and CMMS cleanup with PM optimization.
Outcome
A robust maintenance and safety competency program: JTA and job descriptions for all technician levels; standardized exams and progression pathways; development of LOTO, OSHA, and electrical safe‑work procedures; ASRS, conveyor, and crane‑specific certification programs; and CMMS cleanup with PM optimization.
