Business Systems Manager
CurrentSupport 11 manufacturing plants ERP System needs and issues. Provide Shop floor support for files we send to machinery on the floor from the ERP system. The files provide data to automated machinery that are used to run production. Supported and developed an application (written in Progress) to download data from our ERP system and print labels and placards we apply to the loads of doors going out to the customers. You can see these labels in Home Depot and Lowes on the Door slabs and Pre-hung units. I developed a new production schedule for use for by the Door Group plants. The new production schedule allows plants to create, finish a new schedule, and send it to the floor in a much more efficient manner. Changes and enhancements to the schedule are much easier to make. Setup and helped implement the new production schedule for the Denmark group of companies. The first initial plant was in Latvia, which I visited and determined the needs of the Facility for the production floor. I have written a production schedule user guide for the Group to use for training on the new Production schedule. I setup a SharePoint template to allow the Door Group to help the group Support issues more efficiently. The website allows the Business systems manager to look up issues and add solutions to better manage problems they face day to day. I setup a new labor costing system for the Interior group. The changes reflected more accurately the production process on the floor for each type of door produced. I implemented a barcode shipping receiving system in a Quebec plant that uses RF technology. The scanners connect over RF to our ERP system using telnet to run Shipping / Receiving Functions. The functions had to be translated to French. I worked with a plant contact to translate them to French.
