In my role as a Maintenance Planning and Inventory Analyst, I ensured uninterrupted equipment maintenance at a cross-dock facility by meticulously managing spare part inventory for conveyor and robotics systems. Through strategic analysis and replenishment, I minimized stockouts and reduced carrying costs while maintaining 100% part availability. I led the launch of the inventory program, securing critical spares that were not ordered while optimizing budget allocation; this resulted tangible savings on locally managed capital for the warehouse. Additionally, I utilized data analytics to identify cost-saving opportunities and provided hands-on training to technicians in inventory management principles. My contributions extended to guiding the site maintenance planner in CMMS utilization and facilitating efficient annual maintenance planning. Some highlights of my time as an MPIA are:• Managed inventory of 3000+ conveyor spare parts with a total value of $2.34M using Infor EAM• Successfully interfaced with Launch team to reorder missed launch spares saving ~$400,000 on the Parts, Repair and Maintenance Budget• Sourced multiple belting vendors decreasing belting lead times by up to 70% for critical spares• Trained technicians in inventory lookup processes and built tools to cut work order servicing time by 10%• Used Weibull analysis to assess min-max settings for critical parts bolstering sourcing reliability index
