OMS sought a senior consultant to elevate their Supply Chain to the next level, as it was still in its early stages due to their exponential growth over a short period.Value-added activities:· Established an inventory report that provided quick insights into their SKUs. The inventory report included parameters such as ABC classification (I have set up the ABC analysis as well), Average Weekly Usage (AWU), Weeks On Hand (WOH), supplier lead time, PLC status, stock level, open orders, quantity in transit, etc.· Initiated monthly Slow Mover meetings to clean up C-items.· Developed a forecast tool based on triple exponential smoothing to determine the order quantity per SKU. The tool also provided insights into the sales data to check the reliability of the input data. For example, in the case of stock outs, the user could quickly see if an alternative method was needed, which was also possible through the tool.· Established a rolling monthly carton usage forecast meeting. In collaboration with OMS and the 3PL provider, forecasted packaging consumption and set up a monthly meeting to prevent transport issues due to a shortage of packaging materials.· Documented all work processes, tools, and analyses based on SOP/WI principles to ensure continuity.

The aim of Pfizer was to focus on the high margin products by excluding the Viatris products from its portfolio, however because of MSA terms Pfizer was still responsible to book the shipments and pay the freight cost for Viatris. · My role and responsibility were to work with manufacturing sites producing Viatris products, meeting with road/ air/ ocean carriers and ensure site transportation operations are executed effectively until the complete transportation responsibility is transferred to Viatris.· Resolving day to day transport related issues escalated by the shipping sites, carriers or Viatris· Establish strong working relationships with the shipping departments at each Pfizer manufacturing site shipping Viatris product and a be a point of escalation for transport related issues.· Facilitate regular meetings with all the stakeholders to ensure effective collaboration and alignment on transport operations.Value added activities· By meeting regularly with all the manufacturing sites, we were able to reduce a significant amount of issues and streamline the transportation process resulting to a more efficient way of work. One of the improvements was to avoid co-loading. Pfizer products could be delayed to their markets, if Viatris products would experience quality issues and be co-loaded on the same shipment.· In the beginning of the project the Viatris purchase orders were incorrect or incomplete resulting to incorrect orders at the manufacturing plants. By organising meetings with various stakeholders such as Digital, Carriers, Manufacturing sites and Logistics. We were able to identify the issues and set up preventive measures to avoid incorrect POs.· Set up a new way of communication structure in order to ensure all parties are aware of new shipment requests due to the fact the shipments did not flow anymore via SAP.

As an accountmanager at Nuon my focus was on acquiring new business customers regarding energy contracts. The customers were mainly "MKBs" which could realize cost saving opportunities regarding gas and electricity. Elaborate trainings and daily reflections regarding the day before resulted to a greater focus on the clients. Best practices were applied through role playing and sales theories.

At this job the main responsibility was to generate new clients for KPN by first analyzing the needs of the customers and consequently offering a custom made package that adheres to their desires. This job taught me how through perseverance, sympathy and by being a good listener clients can be motivated to apply for contracts that improve their standard of living. Finally in the end resulting to a win win situation for KPN and the customer.
