Equipment management responsibility system

The special care program is the most extensive; relevant workshops, maintenance teams, instrumentation departments, electrical engineering teams, and equipment management departments are all involved in this process. There are requirements regarding maintenance records, and a special care meeting is held once a week. The package mechanism means that one person is responsible.
