This range allows the implementation of technology transfer. Completed a three month secondment into a composite production facility where I formed part of the production planning team. My responsibilities here were to plan production for 2 OEM customers ensuring that material and resource was in place to ensure customer MRP dates were met. Show less

Planned and conducted benchmark testing for new vehicle development. This covered both objective and subjective testing.Aided with the quotation process as well as identified time and cost savings for both in quotation and in progress projects.

Worked within a small team to complete a range of projects for a single customer including:Design, Test and Manufacture of parts kits for a fleet of vehicles. First was a kit which allowed for rationalisation of high value spares. The second was a lighting kit to improve both functionality and safety of a vehicle. I was involved with physically testing both systems at proving grounds, development of fitting instructions and production of the kits followed by auditing.Feasibility… Show more Worked within a small team to complete a range of projects for a single customer including:Design, Test and Manufacture of parts kits for a fleet of vehicles.

Entailed investigation into the mobility of a traction vehicle to access the viability of a given combination of vehicles I completed investigation into CO2 reduction methods for a commercial vehicle OEM. This covered not only cost and complexity of implementation but also the time period of technology availability. The forward view of this project was 25 years from the time of investigation.Aided with the development of a Design Verification Plan (DVP) for a luxury EV development project. Show less
