Craig,
Not at all knowing the extent of information you, and
mainly Jeff possess regarding the running of the island,
I have a few comments.
1. First, I feel after construction is complete, you
should pull back staff to bare bones. Review of
all is below.
2. I would interview for landscaping and
housekeeping, part time - back up employees.
Have a pool of workers for each area, trained
prior as to the island's needs and on an "as
needed" employment. Remember, you have
yourself who will be responsible to oversee all
work, two island managers, a Head Engineer,
Head Grounds men — seems like you're way
management heavy, but see below.
May Sept Dec 1 st
5th 1st
Island Managers 2 Brice and wife? What exactly
does his wife do? Can she not help with
management of housekeeping?
Head Engineer/ Maintenance 1 1 1
Boat Captains- Don't understand why you need
more than 1 Captain with a good boat mate, who
can also help engineer with small boat
2 2 2(1)
maintenance issues and can run the smaller boats
on his own for just straight transportation, as
needed.
Boat Mate 1 1 1
Engineering-With a head engineer, do you need
more than 1 other to be a back up for the R.O.
plant along with your idea of a part time marine
mechanic — but wouldn't reality be, regarding any 4 2 2(1)
boat issue —for any major repairs goes into port?
Also, are not more of Jeff's boats rather new
maintenance fees?
Maintenance 5 3 2
EFTA00934627
Head Grounds Man-With a head grounds man, I
would cut back landscaping to 3 from 5 and see 1 1 1
what can not get completed.
Landscaping-You now have a head engineer, boat
mate, another engineer — who all should be
helping with different aspects of maintenance. Not
knowing the R&M of the buildings are two
additional maintenance men needed vs 1 and twice
7 7 -5(3)
a year seasonal hire? Need your input, but I would
rather in all departments asap cut back to bare
bones and see what can not be completed vs
having each department work into the pace of
keeping all employed and everyone looking busy.
Housekeeping-Same here, I would go down to 1
or maybe 2 and have island manager wife help 4 3 3(2)
here.

Steve;
This is the original list I sent Jeffery. I was proposing a second draw down after all construction work is finished.
Please see below.
I have sent two additional employment lists for you to look at.

This does not take into account retraining the boat captains to preform other duties as yet.

Jeffery;
Here are some thoughts on support staffing.
Engineering/Maintenance
For Discussion only;
As discussed most of the islands staffing is now involved in construction not on island maintenance. As the
construction winds down the staff in engineering, maintenance and marine services should have more time to
perform their permanent jobs. If we can teach them to multi-task we should be able to shrink the staff.
Between engineering and maintenance there are currently 9 people. Marine services has 3pp plus the head
engineer position (Arran), makes the total support staff 13pp. This is an extremely large support staff for the
island.
Management is currently looking at the staffing by who is there and how they fit into the current/new staffing
structure. We need a new structure. If you look at the staffing from a larger/different prospective, though, you
would have a smaller staff that is trained in multi areas. We need more out of the box thinking. To get to this
point the current staff might have to be retrained or replaced. This may take several months to accomplish but
could be done. We need a new org chart in this area.
EFTA00934629
Examples;
Maybe there is a marine mechanic that is the second boat driver who also runs the RO plant and is the island
mechanic. When the island stops maintaining construction equipment and much of the equipment leaves the
island and there is fewer boats to maintain, this may be possible.
Head Engineer that is also a carpenter or a plant operator.
Painter/ Carpenter/maintenance combined.
Electrician/ plant operator/irrigation (electronic side) technician.
These are just suggestion for discussion, but I think you can see where we could be going.
Structure;
Currently engineering reports to Aaran, maintenance to Brice, marine to both.
Future; There should be one person to handle all. They can then supervise all support staff and deploy them as
needed. Landscaping might want to fall here also.
Areas of work/Buildings. Although this may sound trivial I do not believe the staff should be spread out in 3 or
4 different buildings. This makes is very difficult to supervise them and to have them multi task .
Currently, carpentry is in the building by the dock, electricians in the RO building, mechanics in the shed and
management in a separate building. It is almost impossible to manage and supervise the staff that way.
All the work spaces are over sized and could be smaller and more efficient if redesigned correctly. I would also
avoid walls and use more fencing/windows where possible. You need to be able to see the staff working.
Example (for discussion)
In the RO building have a carpenter shop, paint, electrical, plumbing and a glass enclosed managers office. I
believe this may fit.
To accomplish this;
Quads would go to dock side building.
Storage to dock side building.
Electrical shop to shrink.
Engineering storage to the two empty generator bays.
The proposed new metal building would be a great asset but if you do not want to spend $250,000 on the
building you could;
Clean up current mechanics building.
Throw out much of the material there.
Keep sensitive equipment/machinery in dockside building. There are 3 more containers in that building using
valuable space as well as a large carpenter shop, large marine services shop that would have to be re
purposed/moved/reconfigured.
Larger equipment would be kept in current engineering shed/structure.
These are just some ideas for discussion.
The point is the way the support staff is currently structured will lead to a larger staff than you want. I believe we
should start with making the physical plant more efficient and then reducing the staff.
