As General Manager of Arcon, a company that manufactures and markets precast concrete products, I led operations to guarantee the delivery of high-quality products to our customers on time and at competitive prices. My responsibilities included the company's strategic planning, including SWOT analysis, defining the Mission, Vision, and Strategic Objectives, and preparing cost, budget, and policy analyses. Additionally, I established key performance indicators to control and monitor operational efficiency. I implemented a systematic maintenance plan for our two production lines, using data collected from physical inspections and operational records to ensure production continuity. This involved defining preventive and corrective maintenance interventions to meet established production goals. I maintained fluid communication with corporate and management areas, facilitating agile decision-making and efficiently resolving operational challenges. Additionally, I coordinated the development of expansion projects and new production lines, from conception to implementation, defining scope, design criteria, and necessary infrastructure requirements.
