INNOVATOR: Tech. Sgt. Adrian Espinosa, NCOIC of the fuels laboratory
UNIT: 86th Logistics Readiness Squadron
ACTION: As a team, the fuels flight introduced an initiative to save the flight more than 400 man-hours a year and reduce the cost to Ramstein by approximately $3,000 annually. Espinosa identified four fill stands currently only used for emergency situations but kept fully active. Espinosa devised a plan to “lockout” the excess fill stands and change the sample frequency to ensure system operability. The plan reduced the total annual sample requirement from 48 per year to eight per year, allowing fuels technicians to focus on active missions.
