Develop complex perpetual review inventory systems : resulting in optimized cycle and safety stocks, eliminates over-production or stock-out occasions Routing Analysis: Utilize “traveling salesmen” heuristic routing: optimizes routing to lower transportation costs “Center-of-Gravity” analysis using: Euclidean distance, longitude and latitude and demand density: finds the best placement for facility to minimize the fulfillment of demand by lowered transportation costs. Utilize complex statistical analysis to make the most prudent “make versus buy” supply chain decisions: analyze the financial impacts of making or buying sub-assemblies, components parts, etc. Mitigate inherent agency conflict between warehousing and transportation: eliminates the self-serving nature of two diametrically opposed cost centers by analyzing what is optimal for the total enterprise.

Worked closely with suppliers to develop an inclusive "total enterprise" philosophy to increase supplier responsiveness to company needs by reducing component lead-times.Utilized ABC analysis to determine component parts for periodic review versus continuous reviewDeveloped product forecast using time series analysis and bottoms-up planning.Mitigated the effects of "bull whip effect" by utilizing excess inventory to target a new market segment.Redirected and consolidated antiquated inventory from distribution channels for one time expense filing in preparation for company reorganization.Developed a Microsoft Excel based continuous review inventory mode and a delayed differentiation strategy; established reorder point and economic order quantities (EOQ) to optimize levels of inventory and order quantities at the lowest estimated annual inventory cost, with a projected 5% cost savings in a multi-billion dollar product line by juxtaposing my proposed strategy versus previous strategy.
