As a Reliability Engineer, my goal is to increase Plant OEE and equipment life with the increase of the equipment availability and performance, leverage by continues analysis of the downtime data, reviewing and updating maintenance plans.The continuous downtime analysis, by process line and product in the short and medium and long interval have given the team the necessary focus, identifying the critical areas and equipment to address the major downtime factors. Also, I developed a criticality assessment process, based on safety, quality, cost, maintenance and reliability, to be used for equipment, lines and work order. I am also responsible for the medium and long term reliability framework, continuous improvement, equipment modifications, maintenance plans review, spare parts stock optimisation, reverse engineering and other associated tasks.I am proud of the results. Since I started, the plant’s OEE has increased overall 4% points and the equipment availability has raised on 9.5% points. All thanks to data analysis, using FMECA methodology, Gemba and data from the latest Electronic OEE analysis software. • Developed the reliability criticality matrix for the site, to be used for equipment, lines, processes and work order on CMMS, to identify critical element. This information has been used for PM reviews, strategic stocks levels and optimise labour utilisation. • Leader of several session of Root Cause Analyisis RCA and RCPS. Sound knowledge on the latest trends of problem solving techniques as Gemba, 5W2H and 5Whys. • Leader of several change control and improvement project all across the lines. • Responsible for reliability KPI generation and control. • Responsible to generate daily and weekly reports and Monthly report is presented to the Managers team including results, next steps and medium and long term reliability actions.

As Plant Services Chief, I was responsible for the operation of maintenance of all equipment and systems which had led me to implement an integrated and almost continuous knowledge and engineering tools.Plant Services Chief, the responsibilities increased, all the responsibilities as Plant Services Supervisor stay plus engineering management areas, such as control of the expenditure budget, led investment projects and presentation indicators; also included the Instrumentation management departments and metrology, which is necessary to develop knowledge for the selection, maintenance and control of measurement equipment such as thermometers, scales, gauges, among others, as well as their applications within the plant. In addition to having the post of Chief, I have to apply human resource tools such as leadership, motivation and training of high performance teams.Some of responsibilities were:Control costs through allocation, cost control and execution of investment budgets and expenses. Knowledge of cost control and financial engineering are essential to fulfill this task, the investment payback times are calculated carefully. Labor management, responsibility for dependents 25 requires knowledge and skills in human resource management. Metrology team leader of the plant, which brings great responsibilities in the coordination and execution of the verification tests, calibration and metrological control of measuring equipment plant, as well as respond to internal and external auditors by the management. Programming and execution of maintenance of the boilers, this activity will apply knowledge of welding, resistance of materials, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer. During execution of work should also address the problems that arise. Programming and execution of the maintenance of air compressors, during which apply knowledge of mechanical, electrical and fluid mechanics. He posed the supply logistics management.

As Plant Services Supervisor, I get the responsibilities for the General Services for the Plant. For the operation of water treatment systems I had to apply tools for fluid mechanics, piping loss calculations, selection of centrifugal pumps and accessory selection and installation.In the operation and maintenance of boilers, I have applied the principles of heat engines, as well as the calculus of heat transfer and fluid mechanics.In the air compression system is required knowledge of lubrication and cooling for the operation of both teams as auxiliary systems for air compression, such as cooling towers and air dryers.Ultimately be the person responsible for machine shops and automotive carries an important personnel management, supply and proper balance between the activities carried out internally or by external providers.Some of my responsibilities:Labor management, responsibility for dependents 18. Programming and execution of maintenance of the boilers, this activity will apply knowledge of welding, resistance of materials, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer. During execution of work should also address the problems that arise. Programming and execution of the maintenance of air compressors, during which apply knowledge of mechanical, electrical and fluid mechanics. He posed the supply logistics management. Operation of industrial water treatment systems, in which the knowledge of inorganic chemistry are essential.Coordination of operations of the plant wastewater treatment in technical cooperation with the water plant. The operations of this plant include the self-analysis process and the logistics of supplies needed for the process. Responsible management of parts machining workshop, to coordinate operations and programming time is necessary to know the times required for each operation and the way they do things. The cooking of machining of parts found to be extremely useful for solving various problems in plant maintenance.

The Trainer Engineer as its name suggests, is a rotational program through all areas of plant, with the aim of training future engineers supervisory for positions in the production process. In each area I was assigned for a different project, I will mention a few.In production areas could apply knowledge of food manufacturing productivity, time studies and optimization of the human resources, to increase the productivity of end of line through the implementation of various improvements, as design, manufacturing and implantation of some dispositive for the machines, increasing the cost productivity increased by 5% in a low cost and immediately.In the lamination department I development a statistical analysis to calculated the optimal thickness of the corn flakes to increase the performance of the mill process in 15%.In the Silos department I development a plant cleaning program, to achieve the cleaning conditions for ISO Standards. This program must be executed by the operator and it has been used until now.While I was in the Maintenance Departments, the allocations were to plan maintenance activities in the SAP system, informing each of the supervisors of the programming area in the months assigned. Also I created 28 new maintenance SAP Plans using my knowledge in SAP and computational skills
