Who can do what in Tool & Die Management

Give maintenance planning, execution and specialty review clear owners and rehearse the decisions each person can make.

How permissions work

Maintenance planning

Maintenance Manager owns the tool register, work coordination and operational setup. Agree the work-approval and permit responsibilities before technicians begin the first maintenance cycle.

Execution evidence

Technician captures work logs, usage and specialty submissions. Assigned work should lead to the correct tool and person, with permission checks applied to the action being taken.

Specialty decisions

Maintenance Reviewer reads evidence and authorizes eligible domain outcomes through the appropriate review action. Access to a record and authority to decide its outcome serve different purposes.

Setup responsibilities

Configure Admin for user mappings and setup administration. Configure Safety Permit Issuer where the business delegates permit approval, then rehearse the permitted scope with the responsible person.
