I teamed with the Distribution Staff, IT Staff, Manufacturing Plants and Transportation to relocate Rain Bird’s Eastern 150K sf. Distribution Center from Calera, AL. to a 235K sf. Distribution Center in Steele, AL. without impacting customer delivery and within budget.I was able to reduce Operating Overhead expenses $250K annually by increasing productivity and reducing headcount. This was accomplished through the justification, purchase and installation of twin 3-level pick modules.I proposed, justified and worked with multiple internal operations in the implementation of a consolidation warehouse in Tijuana for the process of shipping direct from the Mexico manufacturing Plants to Rain Bird Europe in France, which resulted in annual transportation cost savings of $70K, annual duty savings of $84K and annual labor savings of $90K.
