PROFESSIONAL HIGHLIGHTS AND ACHIEVEMENTS

. Saved $2.2 MM by reducing the number of tugs in the fleet .

. Saved $75 - $100M in ship demurrage through asset utilization.

. Reduced inventory level 10% below the established target and maintained a

99% customer service level rating over the past 3 years for feedstocks

through planning and scheduling barges against the production forecast.

. Generated approximately $200K of revenue in one quarter by improving then

implementing a plan, which opportunistically outsourced specific barges

through planning against the production forecasts and scheduling based on

sales requirements.

. Saved approximately $1 million per day for a period of 3-4 days at least

once a year over the last 6 years by preventing the shutdown of an

ethylene cracker. Saved an additional $500K per year over the same

period by eliminating exclusive use trains to prevent potential

shutdowns. I developed a process, which simultaneously identified

potential rail delivery problems and prevented the shutdown of that

ethylene cracker.

. Reduced or maintained inventory levels at or below targets while

sustaining customer satisfaction levels of over 95% for the past 5 years

by planning and scheduling barge and railcar movements from multiple co-

product tanks across the Gulf Coast without containment issues.

. Replaced obsolete leased railcars with a downsized fleet of state-of-the-

art multi-use cars as a key member of a 9-person team. We developed a

model for converting railcars from 263 to 286 gross weight limit.

. Reduced Emergency truck orders by 85 % and corresponding phone calls by

70% resulting in a 50% reduction in over time for distribution. Helped

develop and introduce inventory information standards, transit standards,

distribution response standards and an emergency definition for Customer

Service to handle emergency truck orders without additional spending or

new systems support.
