I am currently the IM/WM team lead for the CSC / PPG project. Our team has a total of 5 WM consultants. The project is a two phase go-live. The first phase went live in August 2014 with 7 manufacturing sites and 13 distributions centers located in the US, Canada and Puerto Rico. The second group of plants went live in 2015. This project is unique in that the timeline is extremely short for the number of locations and complexity of the solution being implemented. Both go-lives were successful and we are currently in support mode.• IM/WM team lead for the project.• Project scope - to convert 14 manufacturing sites and 23 distribution centers over two phases to a new version of SAP within two years.• Manage the daily tasks of 4 other consultants• Our progress has been measured each week with business benchmarks in Supply Chain, Order Management, Logistics, Finance, Manufacturing and Procurement. • All of our business objectives week over week have been met or exceeded• To date we have proudly met our project goal of 'No Customer Impact'.
