Las Tunas, Cuba.- When the causes of non-compliance with the sugar production plan of the last harvest were analyzed in Las Tunas, the Transport and Mechanization Base Business Unit (UEB) also known as Tranzmec by its workers, recognized its failure in the fulfilment of the plan.
It turned out that the UEB stopped transporting more than 100,000 tons of cane due to the non-incorporation of 16 trucks - lack of engines and aggregates - throughout the harvest, the critical situation of the Majibacoa base, frequent breakages and technical damage that altered the indicator of lost time. Besides, they reach the end of the campaign with a poor 73 percent technical availability coefficient - equivalent to 55 paralyzed cars - and the lack of thrust and organization in some establishments also affected the production of sugar.
In further analyzes carried out within the entity with a predominance of criticism and self-criticism, other deficiencies - objective and subjective - emerged that enriched the plan of measures currently being executed. They were oriented to strengthen the management of the entity in its three fundamental fronts: transportation, workshops, construction, and repair of cane roads.
Despite the fact that actions are broad, managers and workers concentrate their greatest efforts in the preparations for the coming harvest, whose main focus is the repair, staging, painting and upholstery of 131 trucks and 127 trailers, several of which have already received these treatments, as confirmed Addiel Melo Fernández, technical head of the establishment.
In such needs and attending to the difficulties that are already being seen in the acquisition of resources in the international market, the turners, innovators and rationalizers have a fundamental role, who, with their ingenuity and constant battle, assume the commitment to manufacture and recover spare parts for a value exceeding 200 thousand pesos.
Roy Luis Molina Campos, director of this entity in Las Tunas, belonging to the Azcuba Sugar Group said that "it will be an important contribution to the efforts made by the country in the substitution of imports in areas where this kind of work can be done."
The same hierarchy is granted to the completion of the staff of the drivers, a difficulty that in the previous sugar campaign was a prevailing factor. It also was the object of analysis in the work visits made to the province by José Ramón Machado Ventura, second secretary of the Central Committee of the Party, to check the progress of the repairs and the harvest.
Alberto Cantero Ramos, head of operations at the UEB, explained that "it is important to start the next campaign with all the required drivers, a very important task for us as the enlistment of the teams. Based on that objective, we have coordinated with the Ministry of Labor in the province and municipalities, as well as with the demobilized men of the Revolutionary Armed Forces, to look for those routes and through the training and requalification courses we are providing, the more than 30 drivers we need."
This strategy, in addition to the differentiated attention given to the Majibacoa truck base to bring it up to the demanding actions of the sugar mill, tasks aimed at achieving the permanence of the workshop staff and the quality of maintenance will assure the success in the next campaign. Moreover, the work carried out by the Union and the Administration in terms of banishing the passivity, disorganization and carelessness of the technicians and workers will support the commitment of the management of Tranzmec in Las Tunas in the fulfillment of the cane transportation plan -one million 596 thousand tons- for the 2019-2020 harvest.
