Name an instance where you were able to improve quality and/or production:

While working on a contract involving a company that builds skid steer loaders, my job

was to produce the loader arms for these skid steers. Since my company began

production for these loader arms, they have had trouble with one end of the part being

warped (two sides of one end sucking inward), as a result of the heat caused by the

welding process. This affected the dimensional tolerance and a new step had to be

engineered into the whole process in order to correct the issue. This added up to a hour to

the production of the part. Conscience of the issue, I began to work on a sequence of

building the part during the welding process that would correct the issue without the

added step. I was successful and the quality assurance department quickly noticed and

informed the production manager who approached me and asked if my process could be

documented for training. I agreed and my supervisors began writing everything that I did

down and video taped everything that I did. Since then production has increased and

others soon were able produce loader arms that were no longer warped. My personal

references Dave Faller and Manny Rodriguez can verify this. They were the supervisors

at the time and are presently employed with Weisgram Metal Fab Inc.
