# Maintenance supervision of a freight train fleet – Guinea

![Maintenance supervision of a freight train fleet – Guinea](https://www.systra.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/compagnie-des-bauxites-de-guinee-1-scaled.jpg)

**The Compagnie des bauxites de Guinée (CBG) operates a fleet of wagons mainly used to transport bauxite. Most of these wagons recently underwent a modification and renovation program managed by SYSTRA Canada.**

This program was successfully carried out by SYSTRA Canada between 2018 and
2020, then from 2022 to 2023. We selected an expert with over 30 years’
experience in wagon maintenance and in managing train maintenance teams in
Canada. He acted as foreman in charge of the train modification and
rehabilitation project.

The tasks performed by the expert:

- Review the maintenance schedule
- Assist CBG with staffing needs
- Assist CBG in the management of employees
- Provide mentorship/training to employees
- Advise on maintenance techniques
- Assistance in planning the purchase of spare parts
- Meet with CFB management and provide maintenance updates
- Review the layout and tools of the workshop
- Assistance with the purchase and maintenance of tools and consumables
