Systems Engineering Division

Smithsonian Institution Washington DC.

Febuary2012- August 2019

I worked with Systems Engineering Division at National History Museum. I was assigned to a project under the direction of Director of OFMR. I was asked to report to the National Zoo to help with training on Reliability Centered Maintenance Equipment with all Utility Systems Operators and give assistance to the Utility Systems Supervisor. During my time at the zoo a couple of projects have been given to me. I was asked to make a Utility Systems Operator Supervisor handbook the book containing everything the supervisor is required to do as the supervisor of USRO’s at the National Zoo. The book has all the daily duties required for the supervisor at the National Zoo. I have added OSHA regulations and requirements that the zoo must follow. The book can be used by a new supervisor to help him understand how the zoo maintenance division operates. While doing training on the equipment. I noticed that a lot of the p.m.’s that the utilities systems Operator is receiving from their boss were either removed from the building or in another room or another building other than what was stated on the Pm task schedule. I started to asset the buildings as we went through doing p.m.’s on all the equipment. I made a schedule with all the equipment for each building to cross reference what was in Facility Center and to know what equipment actually was in the buildings. During our weekly meeting I brought this issue to the director’s attention and was directed to start assessing equipment and planning a yearly maintenance schedule for each piece of equipment. I have listed all equipment that would need preventive maintenance work per building and scheduled for annual pm, semiannual pm, quarterly p.m.’s and monthly p.m.’s. The equipment was scheduled with the through of the different seasons of the year and what type of equipment it was and the manufacture preventive maintenance requirements. I created a calendar for the supervisor at the National Zoo to order parts and supplies per month depending on what equipment p.m.’s tasks are coming out that month. I created a list on my schedule for supplies to be ordered for preventive maintenance tasks. The Supervisor will receive the calendar appointment on the first of each month to help him remember what to order and how much is needed. I have also put in place a preventive maintenance task monthly scheduling process to insure that all p.m.’s are completed in the month they are required. I have been working in Facility maintenance for twenty five years and have great knowledge of the operations and scheduling of maintenance equipment. I coordinated the most effective approach to managing operations and maintenance for a large, complex building or complex of buildings. As a supervisor I was in charge of the equipment for four large museums and knew what was needed every month to maintain the buildings I was responsible for. I scheduled all tasks and maintenance requirements with no issues or damage to equipment. Scheduling my equipment helped me be one of the best performing zones with Smithsonian Institution.
