*Monitor the use and inventories of spare parts, maintenance supplies, and equipment, and initiate reordering when necessary.
*Effectively communicate with Production and Operations Departments to coordinate necessary maintenance and repair work in process areas, minimizing disruption.
*Implement programs and procedures required to ensure plant cleanliness and assist with planning and implementing major plant improvements and expansions.
