- Close communication gaps: Set the cadence, channels, and escalation paths (Slack, Jira, recurring check-ins) that keep Logistics, Manufacturing, Engineering, Fleet Operations, and sites aligned on vehicle updates, configuration, and documentation
- Measure and report: Maintain dashboards for uptime, MTBF, MTTR, days down, labor time adherence, and process compliance, and report status, risks, and results to leadership
