John Mims Electronic Technician John Mims has earned national recognition for his eIdea suggestion to install a Plexiglas cover over the injection solenoid circuit boards on the AFSM 100. His cost-saving, service-driven initiative has reduced downtime not only at the Miami P&DC, but in plants across the nation.
During a local ceremony, Lead Plant Manager Jennifer Stevenson presented a national award to Mims. He also received a Letter of Appreciation written by Manager, Maintenance Operations Steve Ellis. Dale Walker, A/Plant Manager, Miami P&DC (at the time); Rick Amezquita, Manager, Maintenance; Steve Jakala, Supervisor, Maintenance Operations; and several Tour 3 co-workers attended.
“It’s employees like John Mims who play a major role in assisting the Postal Service in providing quality service to both internal and external customers,” said Stevenson. “This idea ensures we are able to improve service.”
“I have always valued employee suggestions as they are true reflections of day-to-day operations,” said Ellis. “John is a valued employee who is concerned about the state of our operating equipment. The implementation of his idea has resulted in more reliable machine performance and up time, consistent service to our customers, reduced maintenance costs, and improved safety performance.”
Congratulations, John!
