- Surpass service level goal with 96% for the year, leading the GTS divisions, while meeting yearend inventory target.- Remodel sales territory to level load orders to DC capacity to improve on-time delivery to the customer by 7%.- Design Qlikview dashboard to identify unfulfilled orders that can reroute to another DC, increasing service by .5%- Optimize sourcing lanes, rerouting shipments to west coast DC and expanded regional replenishment from east coast DC to reduce in-transit lead time by 29%.

Responsible for the Industry 4.0 strategy for both the power tool & power tool accessory divisions and oversaw the execution of the connected factory initiative within Global Tools & Storage.- Internally designing & developing all aspects of an OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) system to meet the needs of diverse factory processes driving over $0.5M labor efficiency improvement in the 4 pilot plants.- Devising multiple analytical projects capturing and analyzing machine process data and identifying areas of improvement with over $100K in savings.- Launching factories on maintenance system (CMMS), digitizing maintenance records with $45K in savings.- Creating project templates & playbooks resulting in accelerated project plans, user acceptance & value capture.

Responsible for the deployment of a standard OEE system throughout the Global Tools & Storage business.- Managed the launch of 4 global factories on an OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) system ahead or on schedule and under budget that involved working with multiple departments in the organization.- Collaborated with data scientists to create a reporting tool from the OEE system with historical Pareto/trends & real time hourly charts using Qlikview.- Factories averaged an increase in 5% OEE leading to nearly $1M in productivity savings.
