During my position as Operations and Implementation Manager for Flextronics Incorporated, I worked extensively with over 18 material suppliers and 4 major customers while managing 4 Supervisors and over 70 operations personnel across 3 x 8 hour shifts. One of my primary responsibilities was to evaluate all aspects of the operation through the use of performance metrics developed and deployed through my 4 Supervisors and 6 Shift Lead per-sonnel. These metrics were compiled and analyzed by measuring 18 points within the supply chain operations in order to determine where we could suggest improvements to the suppliers’ physical product, provide feedback on their dedicated shippers and to provide an honest evaluation of how well we were supporting the customer accounts. My team could always quickly provide accurate, substantive empirical data to each customer and supplier that helped them develop numerous cost saving measures and internal efficiencies within their own operations. For example, because my team measured the shippers’ exact delivery times and thoroughly documented the product condition up-on arrival, we were able to provide the customer with valuable feedback they used in choosing the best shipper to fit their needs.
