Supplier Quality Engineering responsibilities were among my most important duties as Quality Manager at Galion. I was
responsible for all incoming materials from all of the suppliers of steels, aluminums and brass used in the manufacturing of
our products. This included researching the customer’s drawings and specifications and establishing the parameters for
those materials, both at the supplier’s location, and our receiving dock. I did regular visits to our supplier base to assure
conformance and understanding of the parameters that they were to operate to.
If there were problems with the material, I worked directly with the suppliers to do Root Cause Analysis to find the
problems quickly and efficiently and then correct those problems. Utilizing my Six Sigma Green Belt training I helped my
suppliers gain opportunities that otherwise would have been missed to make a better product for a lower cost. This also
included doing Design Of Experiments with the suppliers to open up opportunities for improvement not only with the
supplier base, but the entire manufacturing chain.

Responsible for the annual departmental budget, as well as the procurement of test equipment and personnel as required
by customer bookings and specific job requirements.
Implemented processes to maintain accurate control for all specified quality standards for the aluminum and steels utilized
by each particular customer. This included a thorough review of the chemical analysis, physical dimensioning at the time
the material was received, testing for hardness, hydrogen embrittlement, induction heat treating as well as annealing of
materials, and established process controls and regular quality audits of the suppliers with on-site visits.
Created and maintained a real time tracking system for Corrective Actions, Cost of Quality, Preventative Actions, Pieces
per Labor Hour, and Internal/External Parts Per Million losses via an advanced television monitoring system that was
viewed throughout the production floor.
Implemented and managed a cross training program that saved thousands of dollars in overtime and missed opportunities.
