Since 2020, Reafrio's Engineering sector has undergone changes and improvements in its infrastructure, which impact the performance of the entire team, increase productivity, and contribute to the development of new solutions.

More recently, the sector has a new room, with more space and equipped, to optimize the work and fulfill the current demand of the team, which is made up of six professionals.

Check out, below, an interview with the Engineering Manager, Maycon Provensi, highlighting the main changes in the sector.

- What are the main changes made to the sector's infrastructure?

In 2020, we started to restructure the sector, organizing the software and hardware of the workstations. Specific software licenses for the project were acquired, and we organized the sector's network structure, facilitating the access of the workstations to the project and internet servers.

In 2021, we started the project to move the sector to a new area, with a structure designed to favor the working environment, ergonomic and spacious furniture, as well as a meeting room, prepared to receive suppliers, discuss the sector's actions and hold remote meetings. We also plan rooms with tables that favor the discussion and presentation of ideas or evaluations of projects and products. 

- What do these changes represent for the sector and impact Reafrio's productivity?

As the company has been looking for a greater role in the Engineering sector, most of the actions related to the product, production, assistance, and commercialization of our solutions are discussed by the sector, together with the rest of the organizational structure. The Engineering sector, being more agile in handling demands, manages to respond faster to the producer and the production process.

- How do you evaluate these improvements and how is the team feeling after these changes in the sector?

We believe that the move to the new room, in addition to being the milestone of a new stage, brings breath to the team. Everyone is motivated and inspired, as the organization shows that it is moving and the team feels valued. Our professionals are of excellent technical level, and these changes demonstrate that the organization believes in the potential of the team.

- What news is the sector developing at the moment? Talk a little about the work of Engineering.

We have a large list of activities, including products, process improvements, support for commercial and assistance activities. Some of the main activities developed today are devices for automating production processes, implementing changes in factory layout, and new production equipment.

In the product area, we are applying constant improvements to products already consolidated, in addition to the development of new solutions in the areas of cooling and milk extraction. We are still developing products in partnership with research entities in different areas of the agricultural sector.
