Selected Achievements

I diagnosed production pace was too slow, caused by delays in construction

and causing loss of revenue. I analyzed the schedule and with strategic

planning and problem solving skills, succeeded in accelerating production.

Impact: The job came in $660,000 under budget and 6 months ahead of

schedule.

Starting a remodeling business was my goal in life. Working hard to build a

reputation for myself, I achieved starting and operating a successful

remodeling business for more than 13 years.

By gaining the respect and confidence of the subcontractors I was able to

accelerate the production schedule, alleviating delays in construction and

loss of revenue. I increased production to completing a building a week.

Impact: Successfully completed the project ahead of schedule.

Wind had caused damage to site fencing and was going to cost the company

$20,000 in repairs. I diagnosed the problem and persuaded the subcontractor

that the installation was done incorrectly. Impact: Ultimately succeeded in

saving the company $20,000 in lost revenue.

A city code violation had been committed by the sales team. The city was

going to make the company tear the house down at a cost of $75,000 to

rebuild. I persuaded the city to allow us to continue building with some

design changes I implemented. Impact: We were able to continue building the

house with no construction delays, or loss of revenue for a savings of

$75,000.

Succeeded in getting one of my kitchen remodels shown in a feature column

of the local newspaper. Impact: Public recognition and visibility of my

work.

Although only with the company a short time and seeing potential

advancement with a new company, my achievements proved to the owner that I

was capable of handling more responsibility. Impact: I was promoted from

Assistant to Lead Superintendent within 3 months of being hired.
