Re-Engineer Existing Spaces: Lead space optimization and layout redesign initiatives to squeeze more capacity out of current buildings with zero disruption to active daily shifts. Own Preventive Maintenance: Run a proactive facilities maintenance program (PM) across the network, tracking inspections and uptime for all MHE, HVAC, and critical safety systems. Enforce Site Compliance: Partner tightly with Safety and Engineering teams to guarantee every facility continuously meets strict operational, environmental, and regulatory standards.
