I oversee the site's financial health - including the ~$61M annual site budget and network efficiency forecasting. As the finance lead for one of Amazon's FCs I've improved KPI’s, VCPU, FCPU, and TPHby forecasting and executing tight variable and fixed cost plans. The Q4’18 and 2019 plans came in 99% to plan. This was achieved through due diligence on purchase orders by requiring ROI’s.Through process improvement projects I decreased VCPU down 16 cents YoY to $1.60. Through business tool development and fixed cost initiatives I decreased FCPU down 12 cents YoY to $1.25. Overall, I have decreased fixed and variable costs at my site and maintain the lowest VCPU in network yielding $2.1M in savings.Created a business tool to optimize spare parts in all North American Fulfillment Centers (NAFC), realizing~$14M in savings.Created a platform to teach operations leaders about planning, which scaled across network.Developed policy to decrease sites' variable/fixed cost per unit to lowest in network.Co-led the development of new business models, which led to a rapid increase in efficiency and savings of ~$880K.Owned and led 2 go green initiatives to implement solar panels and LED Lighting at site yielding $256K annually.
