Millions saved in operational optimization
WORK MANAGEMENT
In a cross-cutting O&M Reduction effort, an opportunity to improve efficiency was identified. Senior management requested a one hour per person per shift improvement in “tool time”.
Our approach
-
1
Implemented changes to start morning shifts earlier and reduced idling time at the end of the day.
-
2
Reduced travel time and increased tool time with better work preparation and truck stock
-
3
Expanded efforts across the jurisdiction for repeatable O&M savings
-
4
Improved risk reduction as a derivative of efficiency improvements
Our results
90
minutes/day saved
Employee driven efforts recovered one and one-half hours per day
Optimized
scheduling and crew sizes
Optimized scheduling to start the day earlier and reduce idling time in the evenings, as we as crew sizes to create additional crews.
Improved
ROI
