- Performance, Metrics & Continuous Improvement
- Evaluate fleet maintenance performance using industry‑standard metrics and KPIs.
- Identify trends, gaps, and opportunities for improvement and drive corrective or preventive actions at a program level.
- Provide oversight of weather‑readiness and seasonal maintenance programs, including storm, cold weather, and extreme condition preparedness.
- Training & Capability Development
- Assist with the training and development of site personnel in support of maintenance activities, standards, and best practices.
- Promote knowledge sharing and consistency across sites to reduce variability in maintenance execution.
