Accomplishments
Highlights:
•Improved Service Level of high-level international customer from 22% to 88% in six months. •Lowered average inventory levels by 50% (from $660K to $340K) in less than one year while maintaining a 100% service level. This was achieved while simultaneously managing the ramp down and closure of one facility and the product change and ramp up of a second facility. •Improved delivery performance of difficult supplier from 100% late to 100% on time in four weeks. •Reduced chemical order placement time by over 60% (from 4 hours to 1.5 hours) per day by creating and documenting processes and using intricately linked Excel spreadsheets. This resulted in savings of 55 man-hours per month. •Achieved 7% cost savings while simultaneously improving on-time delivery and reducing receipt of defective product through strategic supplier negotiations. Resulted in greater manufacturing up-time and reduced rework and returns. •Reduced inventory levels by $1 million in a 60-day period through negotiated supplier returns and conservative-buying strategies.Job Skills
