So, to get this right Frank, there are Drager employed staff on site to do the "general" bulk equipment servicing (Just like a normal Ebme dept) and then on top of that they provide extra staff to do the 'Specialist' (if that's the word) type stuff under another contract.
Does that make sense ?
Or is this arrangement a business/comercial focused set-up?
I can understand training staff on different equipment at different times but would have thought that it benefits all concerned to have your on-site staff trained on as much kit as possible, which gives you added flexibility.
Of course the down side for a commercially focused organisation is that you may not wish to dilute 'time allowed' for certain work when you consider the revenue that, that time committment element generates in an agreed contract
i.e PROFIT.
Not quite the same focus for EBME depts especially when C.I.P's and efficiency targets mean year on year improvement goals !
