Synopsis

Technician reported concerns with maintenance personnel not recording their work on Low Weather Minimums Program (LMP) components and experience level for tasks at their station.

Narrative

On DATE Aircraft X and Aircraft Y took maintenance delays in ZZZ. Aircraft X was for FMC 1 reset and Aircraft Y was for FMC 2 reset. Neither aircraft had a recorded Maintenance Item Control number for the task that was accomplished. The issue at hand is GPM XX-XY is very specific on resetting LMP essential components. It is also very specific on when a Ground confidence check is required and when it may not be required. GPM XX-XY.Z and XX-XZ.XA make note to a reset being within a 15 day window. What happened with these two aircraft were LMP essential components were reset and no record was noted to start the 15 day window. Suggestions - With this GPM reference changing so much recently; I am not sure the AMT's are aware of this. I believe LMP is a crucial program. I believe we are loosing the interest of AMT's with the LMP program as well as avionics. ZZZ1 recently hired avionics off of the street. That's unheard of. I have asked Maintenance management for avionics to be staffed in ZZZ like similar stations are. It has been rejected and the problem grows.
