SENIOR MANUFACTURING/INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING

Structures Fabrication and Assembly...Materials and Resource

Planning...Equipment/Facility Planning

. A result-oriented engineering professional with extensive and

comprehensive direct support experience in facilitating new product

offerings, optimizing existing/new manufacturing plant operations and

implementing Lean Manufacturing principles to shorten cycle times, reduce

work-in-process inventory and eliminate non-value added activities.

. Directed efforts and focus on lowering "cost to produce" by minimizing

process/flow times, promoting continuous product quality and improving

facility productivity. In addition, offers in-depth experience in

effective cost avoidance/reduction, process auditing, change control, and

variance analysis/corrective action.

. Core competencies include cost control, work measurement, plant layout

and facilities planning. Emphasis in problem solving with strong

commitment to bottom-line productivity, and handling of multi-task

workloads in an ISO 9001 certified environment.
