Aeronautical Engineer Streamlines Our Maintenance

Adriana Ramirez Rodriguez, a Colombian engineering graduate, who has been working with us on a part time basis since her arrival in England in March 2006 is near to completing a total and all encompassing maintenance programme for all our varied machinery across the UK. It is hoped that once she has this up and running machine breakdowns will become a thing of the past thus allowing much smoother and trouble free cleaning schedules. Adriana has employed her skills as an aeronautical engineer in designing this programme. Adriana is in England studying English and we came across her purely accidently and after a very short time decided to employ her skills as an engineer to streamline and organise our maintenance programmes which up until recently had been based on 'fix it when it breaks'. This attitude in the world of aircraft maintenance is not one that can be adopted! So utilising Adriana's skills in this area we will endeavour to see if a more preventative approach can be cost effective and efficient. Once she has fully developed the schedule she will then be responsible for implementing it and with careful monitoring over the next few months we should be able to obtain reliable data as to its cost effectiveness. Updates on the progress of this campaign will be posted as soon as we start getting data in.
