PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

STRATEGIC PLANNING MANAGER June 2024 – May 2025

TECHNIPFMC

As Strategic Planning Manager over subsea EPCI services operations in North America, I received the opportunity to successfully implement a robust S&OP process that was previously non-existent in the services department. Beginning with restructuring demand collection tactics and redirecting the information flow from internal stakeholders, a demand plan was born, thus enabling strategic analysis and planning of project scopes to be entered in the Master Production Schedule. Leading a team of two Strategic Planners, I designed a process that facilitates the connection between long-term, mid-term, and short-term planning horizons, as well as distinguishing the roles and responsibilities within each planning horizon.

Responsible for process design and implementation of demand and supply planning management.

(Customer Contracted Delivery Date), including a RACI matrix detailing the roles and responsibilities involved.

Published document outlining the process and concept of a single source of demand repository, as well as implementing time buffers into our external and internal date commitments, thus initiating change management.

Facilitated cross-functional collaboration among Project Management, Planning, Procurement, and Operations to align departmental activities, clarify accountability, and ensure timely execution of critical project milestones.

Collaborate with market analysts to identify industry trends and inform long-range planning strategies.

Extend demand visibility by integrating data from multiple sources and applying statistical forecasting methods, including analysis of historical sales, market trends, & high-level discussions between Sales & external customers.

Incorporated digital aspect to visual management of Obeya project planning rooms, facilitating the PDCA process of tracking the “Clean Start” status of service scopes being prepared for shop floor execution. DEMAND & SUPPLY PLANNING MANAGER (FCC) July 2023 – March 2024 KETJEN CORPORATION

As the S&OP Leader and Product Owner for the FCC business line at Ketjen Corporation, overseeing a yearly revenue of

~$540MM, I successfully exceeded the end-of-year inventory reduction target by ~$4MM, achieving actuals of $76MM against a target of $80MM, and reduced slow-moving inventory by 37.5%, from $16MM to $10MM, through strategic inventory management initiatives. Also mitigated the loss of two weeks of production capacity by strategically reallocating production and planned downtime to periods with available capacity, thus optimizing production schedules. Furthermore, successfully mitigated silo/storage capacity shortages by promptly collaborating with Sales to obtain customer approval to accept early or late deliveries. In addition to these accomplishments, below are some key aspects of my role:

Responsible for alignment of all business units: Sales, Business, Production, Operations, Finance, & Executive.

Accountable for the entire S&OP cycle, including reporting forecast accuracy and volume attainment metrics.

Performed regular in-depth analyses in identifying and understanding reasons for fluctuations in demand, supply, revenue, inventory, volume variance, OEE (operational equipment efficiency), and forecast accuracy.

Heavy use of SAP & IBP (Integrated Business Planning) for the purpose of demand input that feeds directly into the monthly supply planning needs (after review with Business for consensus on current demand picture).

Responsible for leading monthly slow-moving inventory meetings with action owners to discuss progress and opportunities in reducing slow-moving inventory levels that directly affect free cash flow.
