MANAGER

/

FORMULATOR

(2016

2017)

This

company

was

purchased

by

Belhealth

Investment

Partners

to

take

this

company

to

its

next

potential

growth.

Coming

on

board

to

this

facility

with

the

having

the

new

owners

Belhealth

Investment

wanting

to

ramp

up

production

and assure

all

state

and

federal

compliance

standards

were

meet,

the

new

team

began

changing

the

dynamics

of

the

company.

As

QC

Manager,

some

of

the

prioritized

tasks

that

required

immediate

attention

were

creating

raw

material

spec

sheets for

testing

per

USP,

design

&

execute

a

stability

protocol

for

finished

products,

verification

&

validation,

risk

assessments, cleaning

validation,

SOP’s,

personal

training,

timelines,

Change

Control,

Deviations,

Investigations,

CAPA,

Method Validation,

Demand

Planning,

Air

Quality,

HAZMAT,

project

management,

annual

review,

updating

equipment,

and

more.

Coming

on

aboard

to

this

facility

the

staff

was

not

accustom

to

wearing

lab

coats

(disposable),

safety

eye

wear,

and

steel toe

boats

for

this

working

with

heavy

machinery.

Those

habits

were

quickly

changed

for

safety

concern.

In

addition

I

had the

batch

operators

sent

to

a

facility

for

approval

from

a

doctor

for

the

ability

to

wear

facemask

due

to

health

hazardous fumes

from

some

of

the

raw

materials

and

batches.

Established

a

quality

department

work

flow

and

timelines,

reconstructed

production

demand

planning

from

forecast

and sale

history,

reconstructed

the

facility

for

high

efficiency,

assured

full

OSHA

and

State

facility

compliance,

worked

with engineers

in

updating

equipment

&

semi

equipment

daily

and

set

up

3rd party

yearly

calibration,

had

different

shift

member

&

myself

trained

in

CPR

in

addition

a

site

safety

officers,

and

more.

The

facility

had

a

clean

room

that

was

not

compliant

to

ISO

14644,

that

was

addressed

by

myself

assure

compliance.

The

facility

prior

had

a

horrific

paper

trail

for

batch

records,

raw

material,

and

products

releases

were

quickly

addressed for

audit

reasons

by

implementing

a

new

system

with

paper

and

online

paper

trace

for

quickest

access.

The

third

week

at

this

facility

FDA

had

come

in

with

a

recall

that

needed

to

be

addressed

priority.

As

a

formulator,

some

of

the

tasks

include

but

not

limited

to

were

proper

reformulating

for

compliance,

new

product development,

technical

writing

and

process,

training

batch

operators,

and

fixing

failed

batches.

Some

of

the

main

products lines

I

had

formulated

for

were

Topical

Cosmetic,

creams,

lotions,

oral

products,

shampoos,

and

personal

care

products.

Was

held

accountable

for

the

Quality

team

budget,

establishing

private

labs

to

test

what

we

could

not

do

in

house,

adding new

equipment

for

compliance

testing

such

as

a

new

HPLC

and

FTIR,

and

updating

lab

equipment

for

higher

efficiency. FIRST
