Current- Identified incorrect setup and labor routings in department work centers. Conducted time studies to update these routings. Updated routings helped capture more accurate capacity and demand metrics for daily planning.- Conducts internal audits for yearly plant quality AS9100D and ISO 9001 certifications.- Applies linear optimization to drive cost effective production models for small and large quantity orders. These models help choose a cost-effective manufacturing method. - Uses Solidworks to design and fabricate machine parts necessary for daily manufacturing production support.- Transformed a 70 year old process from die cut to laser cut. The laser cut process is cost-saving and more efficient because it has the ability to sequence multiple orders into one production run. - Generates SAP IDOC classification data to automate production orders for thermal transfer printing. This decreased setup time by increasing operator productivity and throughput.- Supports production planning and operator cross training on machines within the department.
