Addendum

20 years of experience in Quality Assurance and Control; from being down in the trenches doing inspections and layouts to managing personnel and the Quality Management Systems. I’ve managed multi-plant sites while being the direct and main Customer contact for complaints. Manage Suppliers and Sub-contractors while developing some to become ISO compliant. I thrive on improving relations with Customers and Suppliers. I also resolve issues within the quality organization between personnel to encourage and foster maximum productivity from all parties. I have a skill to work with difficult personalities and people and am known for transformation management where I make undesirable employees productive and promotable. Very good at bringing managers and process owners together to improve and eliminate road blocks, bottlenecks, and underperforming processes. Work strategically with management to improve company morale, communication, and systemic failures. Work with management to improve internal manufacturing for key customer specific requirements, KPIs, and performance trends of the business and manufacturing. I have managed up to 15 employees from CMM operators and inspectors to Quality and Process Engineers.

With a vast automotive, heavy truck, medical mfg., aerospace, and military foundation, I’ve implemented APQP processes, contract review processes, and have been responsible for the PPAP process. I have created the quality plan for customers, parts, and part families. Where I have created the Warrants (PSW), Flow Diagrams, FMEA, Control Plans, Inspection Sheets, setup the layout process, as well as compiled and created the PPAP documentation for submissions. I have done the manual layouts when CMMs were not available and taken the CMM reports and lead manufacturing improvements as well as determined process capabilities.

I’ve worked on all sides of Quality where I develop, audit, and approved suppliers. Along with establish supplier development programs and (SCAR) Supplier Corrective Action Processes. Went to suppliers and sub-contractors and establish root cause and corrective action for many when most suppliers were small mom and pop type shops.

I’ve been the manufacturing Quality person who approved internal processes from stamping, welding, assemblies, bending, forming, turning, heat treat, laser, plasma, waterjet, lapping, grinding, polishing, machining, wire edm, and etc. Setup inspection plans for manufacturing. I’ve created various types of work instruction; (Operator, Setup, Startup, Sort, Rework, Gage, etc.). Created, documented, and completed Installation Qualifications and Operation Qualifications (IQOQ), Test Method Validations (TMV), and Process Qualifications (PQ). I’ve trained operators and inspectors on GD&T and metrology techniques. I am experienced with close tolerance manufacturing; using CMMs, Laser, and vision inspection equipment. Lead and participated in many value stream mapping and kaisen events using Lean tools. Audited and improved manufacturing processes to implement error proofing and the appropriate daily validation of that error proofing for process improvements. Managed, setup, and completed calibrations and Gage R&Rs. I am the Process Owner for the Corrective and Preventive Actions, Non-conforming Product, Control of Records and Documents. Leader and driver for the (MRB) Material Review Board to establish quick disposition of suspect material. Control and manage the (RMA) return material process and establish disposition and corrective action. Control over Customer owned material and/or gages. Managed and overseen Quality Labs where I’ve actually created the mounts and interpreted basic metallurgical test.

From a Customer standpoint, I have traveled and visited customers along with worked with their Supplier Technical Assistants (STA’s) and setup the audits along with accomplishing getting Q1 and MMOG certification for my company. I am very efficient in navigating the Supplier Portals and updating their required data as required for Corrective Actions. I lead corrective action teams for establishing containment, root cause analysis, corrective actions, verifications, and institutionalizing the Lesson Learn to other products. Using tools like 8D, 5Why, fish bone diagrams, Drill Deep Drill Wide, Check Act Plan Do, and various lean tools to derive permanent corrective actions.

From a Quality Systems stand point, I create and maintain multiple audit processes; Layered Process Audits (LPAs), Manufacturing Audits, Internal Audits, and Supplier Audits. I have successfully launched, implemented, and maintained several quality management systems: TS16949, ISO9001, ISO13485, & AS9000, and ISO14001.
