system and reduced production downtime by 420 minutes in first 9

months of 2010.

. Organize and run productivity improvement workshops resulting in the

reduction of 6 operators.

. Created layout of main warehouse using AutoCad. Established new

address system for preparation of PFEP (plan for every part).

during product implementation.

. Developed processes for flexible body shop to be capable of

implementing future products without disrupting production to maximize

efficiency and effectiveness of manufacturing line.

. Reduced labor by 5 to 7% every year without having to invest large

amounts of capitol. Created VSM (Value stream maps) then analyzed

operations and eliminated waste to combined lightly loaded operations.

. Ran productivity workshops in general assembly, 6 workshops with each

resulting in the reduction of 2 operators (-12 total). Also reduced

ergonomic stressors through design and implementation of material

delivery racks at 140 operations.

. Industrial engineering lead for Vue MCE (mid cycle enhancement).

Coordinated industrial engineering resources to ensure that new parts

and processes were introduced without negative impact to current

production. Project met launch and budget requirements.

. Ran workshops in 5s, visual management, standardization, line

balancing, and "waste identification and elimination" to train staff

on most efficient production techniques.

. Created and maintained departmental layouts of 1.5 million sq. ft.

facility using AutoCad to maximize use of production space and

increase efficiency.

. Developed standard operating procedures (SOP) for both direct labor

and indirect labor operations to maximize efficiency and minimize

costs.

. Developed and implemented "tugger routes" to eliminate fork lift

requirements in production environment.

. Routed and tracked 2500 parts in general assembly department to

develop and maintain effective and efficient material delivery system.

Maintained "PFEP" (Plan for every part) to ensure material flows

effectively through department

. Assisted in implementation of electronic production pull system to

maintain "min/max" of line side materials. Reduced line side inventory

from 4 hours to 2 hours and eliminated production downtime from

material shortages.
