Program Management
• Managed Requests for Proposals, working cross-functionally to determine compliance, or noncompliance (exceptions), for the proposal by the requested deadline.
• Negotiated contract pricing, terms and conditions, quality notes, and final design requirements.
• Managed multi-million-dollar defense contracts from cradle to grave, updating stakeholders on milestones, resulting in improved on-time delivery per contractual agreements.
• Customer Support, which in addition to the above, included conference calls, onsite or customer facility visits, presentations, meeting minutes, action items, schedules, SharePoint navigation, budgeting, material control, compliance, quality control, data and documentation package control, source inspection coordination, and contractual data deliverables. Supply Chain Management
• Managed shared materials used on multiple assemblies within the same, or similar, programs to get higher cost breaks, resulting in an approximate 20% cost reduction, which allowed us to have a negotiating advantage on the contract with our customer.
• Assisted purchasing in finding readily available material, as well as best prices available through distribution to ensure the programs I managed stayed within budget.
• Managed supplier calls when they were required due to delays in schedule or quality issues. Team Collaboration
• Collaborated with team members for initial proposal and quoting feedback, as well as through the design and manufacturing phases for progress reports, or any risks.
• Collaborated with other program managers to create priorities and timelines, ensuring efficient resource and allocations, especially for government rated jobs. Problem Solving
• Improved on-time delivery by 60% through change management control by collaborating with other program managers and customers for revised contract dates due to delays caused by design changes, scope creep, stop work orders, or noncompliant customer supplied material. P a g e 2 2
