Career Achievements

Fox Shox's, Senior Industrial Engineer

. Improved the Power Sport Division's overall productivity from 67% to 85%

by cross training employees to perform a variety of cellular operations

to line balance the production, while also utilizing Just-In-Time

Techniques. Implement Industrial Engineering reporting mechanism to

immediately identify and eliminate performance issues and quality

discrepancies. Used customer takt time's to develop material flow

diagrams and Value Stream Maps to balance two shock manufacturing

production lines, which saved over $1,200,000. Performed Pareto's

Analysis on the Production Control schedule to reduce small quantity

orders from 85% to 67% by using Group Technology. Submitted potential

Industrial Engineering saving for over $5,000,000.

Aerospace, McStarlite Company, Lean Manufacturing Project Manager

. Utilized Six Sigma (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control

Concepts) with advanced laser technologies to improve the company's

Total Quality Control (TQC) System. This technology improved quality,

productivity and product throughput and the savings amounted to

$6,217,093.

. Identified bottleneck operations and minimized (muda - waste) developing

and utilizing Value Stream Map's (VSM) with the managers, supervisors

and lead employees. These Value Stream Maps improved product throughput

four weeks. Update the manufacturing layout and analyze the "spaghetti

flow diagram" to reduce traveling distances, costs and improve product

throughput an additional two weeks.

. Developed a Capacity Plan which reduced the over producing of products

and implemented a line of balancing employee strategy plan. Both of

these activities improved customer's on-time-delivery from 85% to 97.9%.

. Performed Time and motion studies and updated 92% of all products

manufactured within the company. Improved employee time reporting in a

multi-culture environment from 85% to 99.5%. This was accomplished by

retraining the employees and using mathematical formulas to monitor the

operator's time inputs.

. Hyper-Learning concepts were used to train employee, supervisors, leads

and employees implement 5S concepts (Sort, Straighten, Shine,

Standardize and Sustain). Validated employee's learning experience using

tests, quizzes and simulation models. The implementation of new standard

time standards, employee reporting and 5S concepts helped organize the

employee's workplace and improved productivity 23%.

. Pareto's Analysis was used to determine the company's major products.

This analysis identified that 7 of 100 products encompassed 82% of the

dollar volume.

Sanyo Solar U.S.A., Quality Assurance Manager

. Use teambuilding, participative management and listening skills to

create synergetic teams to accomplish company goals. Managed fourteen

Spanish speaking employees and determined QC, Packaging and Data Entry

Departmental staffing requirements as the company increased its overall

throughput from 500,000 to 1,000,000 Wafers per month.

. Improved Quality Control Department's Inspection of Wafer, by automating

this process and using Six Sigma (DMAIC) and Statistical Process Control

concepts. This system provided Production with immediate feedback on

their wafer manufacturing processes which saved them $1,599,710

productivity improvements. This increased the Wire Saw Wafer

Department's and Wafer Cleaning yields from 93% to 99%. Purchased new

measurement equipment Wire Mark, Resistivity Checkers, MX203, FTIR and

other equipment to improve Wafer Analysis. These Quality Control

improvements caused our Japanese customer to eliminate the incoming

inspection process of our products which saved them $3,597,175.

. Designed and implemented an automated Ingot Measurement and Inspection

System which improved ingot throughput 100% using Digital Calibers and

Dell Computers. Created and installed a semi-automated Statistical

Process Control System for the Quality Control Ingot Inspection

Department which improved ingot yields 12% and saved $1,820,000 by

implementing a Statistical Process Control Program

APW, Manufacturing Eng. / Product Mgr. / Sub Assembly Plant Mgr.

. Managed the implementation of "Lean Manufacturing" Visual Factory

Management, Value Stream Mapping, Six Sigma, SMED (Quick Changeover),

Mistake-proofing, and Kaizen Blitz concepts as production increased from

$500K to $28M in two years. Developed Pareto's Analysis, the capacity

plan, performing time and motion studies, designing the plant layout,

training employees and installing the following systems: Work Flow

Diagrams, Just-In-Time (JIT), Total Factory Automation (TFA), Total

Preventive Maintenance (TPM), Total Employee Involvement (TEI),

Statistical Process Control (SPC), Total Quality Management (TQM) and

Kaizen. Developed Return on Investment (ROI) for capital equipment

purchases. Developed manufacturing process instructions which were

submitted and approved by the quality assurance and manufacturing

engineering. All of these systems and activities reduced production hours

from 8.0 to 2.5, improved yields from 80% to 98%, and reduced machinery

downtime from 9% to 1%. The entire savings for these projects amounted

to $1,507,000.

. Managed and trained a Mechanical - Electrical Assembly Line of fifty (50)

employees that implemented Just-In-Time, 5S, Work Simplification and Line

Balancing Concepts as a team. Distributed production assignments based

upon dispatch workload priorities. The results from this assignment were

a 43% production increase in sixty (60) days. Monitored budgets and Key

Value Indicators to adjust company strategies to increase profits.

. Created Quality Improvement Teams (Kaizen Teams) which reviewed and

assessed the Failure Analysis and Root Cause of Customer Quality

problems. These teams designed the House-of-Quality and improved the

company's overall Quality 15% using Lean Manufacturing Strategies.

Received the "Living Our Values Award" for developing and working

together in Quality Teams. Assisted in the implementation and

Certification of ISO 9001. ISO Certification improved the company's

overall quality 25%. Develop yearly and monthly budgets and production

schedules with top management to meet company Key Value Indicators and

profit margins.

. Used historical data, stopwatch time studies and predetermined time

standards to develop departmental productivity and cost standards

measurements. These measurements were used to line balance the

production line, determine standard costs, return on investments, process

trend analysis, standardize workloads, eliminate bottlenecks and increase

employee performance 27%.
