Spearheaded analysis process development by devising automated tools to make analysis quicker and less labor intensive resulting in greater than 50% reduction in required analysis time. Achieved increased customer satisfaction by significantly reducing customer downtime resulting from retrofit efforts by increasing order accuracy and identifying design conflicts before delivery and installation. Developed "Field Audit & Order Definition" tool thus standardizing and simplifying the documentation of the 'as built condition' of systems scheduled for retrofits during customer site visits. Produced Excel-based "Duplication Identifier" program used to compare the material structured to original system orders and retrofit material structured. Invented innovative "Automated Field Audit & Order Definition" tool to be used by Customer Engineers in the fab via companies' intranet to document current system configuration (intended to further reduce cost and analysis time by limiting required travel by analysis team).
