FOD Management Part 3 (Empowerment)

FOD Prevention Committee:

A FOD Manager needs to have a committee of FOD Advisors who act as “assistants” to the FOD Manager. These Advisors will be assigned to strategic areas where FOD has been shown to be an issue, or where it is likely to occur. This will lessen the burden of the FOD Managers responsibilities, empower employees to have greater FOD responsibilities, and keep multiple eyes on problem areas.

The FOD Prevention Committee will have regular monthly meetings. These meetings will identify negative trends and develop action plans to resolve them. Meetings should also be used to recognize personnel making significant contributions to FOD prevention (e.g. golden bolt program, FOD poster contests, or other locally developed FOD recognition programs).
