Identify and analyze a department in your organization that experiences frequent equipment or process failures. If you are not currently associated with an organization, conduct an Internet search or use the Hunt Library resource to find a firm. Discuss what the organization can do to improve the reliability of the equipment or processes and whether some of the improvement could come through enhanced maintenance.

Find the explanation below.

Explanation:

The name of my organization is Prime Plc. known for the production of confectionaries. The Production Department in my organization has been experiencing frequent equipment failures quite recently. A close investigation showed that the delays were caused by a breakdown of the sugar mills, mixers and, coating machines. This has resulted in delays in the production process. To improve these failures, I believe that the organization should:

1. Employ Technicians who can quickly carry out repair work on these machines when they breakdown instead of outsourcing the repair work for this would take a longer amount of time to get the machines up and running.

2. Introduce the periodic maintenance of these machines. Machines are subject to wear and tear, so I would suggest that the maintenance of these machines is carried out within intervals of three months.

3. Train the production personnel on the proper usage of these machines. Production personnel should be updated on current and effective ways of handling machines so as to guarantee their safety and longer use.

4. Make provisions for backup machinery and equipment. The organization would do well to purchase backup equipment especially for machines that the organization cannot do without so that in the event of an equipment failure, the production process would not be stalled.

When these measures are considered, there would be a significant improvement in the production department.
