Spanish term or phrase: intendencia
Hola a todos, necesito traducir al inglés la palabra intendencia en el contexto de una fábrica. En varios diccionarios aparece como maintenance pero el problema que intendencia en esta fábrica es el departamento que se encarga de contratar al personal de limpieza y comerdor. Hay un departamento de mantenimiento que es el que se encarga del mantenimiento de la planta en general como arreglar máquinas, cables, fixtures, etc.

Gracias!
