• People: (Every journey is its own. Understand the situation and meet people where they are at.) Build teams and culture in a heavily unionized environment. This is accomplished through structured communication, policy administration, healthy team debate, and team member development. • Systems: (Systems maintain standards. Standards are the foundation for continuous improvement.) Strengthen numerous business management systems through grass roots understanding of how the business operates, leading to functional systems specifications, resulting in implementation of internal and 3rd party software systems for ongoing stability and improvement (ISO-like Systems, Quality Management Systems, Process Analysis and Center-lining Systems, Manufacturing Excellence Systems, Capital Delivery Systems, etc.).• Results: (Turn assets, activity, and effort into earnings)• Safety: Shift culture to standard work with JHAs and a team-centric risk reduction approach. (Effectively reduce recordable rates by 50% in less than 24 months.)• Quality: Effectively reduce internal rejects and customer complaints through building quality into the process, resulting in approximately 25% reduction in customer complaints• Delivery: Achieved nearly 10% OEE improvement on all machines. This was rooted in sustained improvements to speed, quality, and uptime. Efficiencies translated through shipping to strong on-time delivery and sales. • Cost: Effectively reduce cost per unit produced through OEE improvements realized and focused improvement initiatives, despite inflationary environments on key raw materials
