ENGINEERING PROJECTS

Implemented a 1.5million dollar compressor re-manufacturing disassembly line that yields and annual 600k savings per year
I co-lead the Value Stream Map to increase the productivity of the re-manufacturing assembly line were we balanced and reduced waste out of the line reducing head count by 3FTE’s.
Redesigned Stator Shop motor assembly with improvements: reducing the foot print by 50%,-200ft of conveyor, & -2FTE’s.
Completed mix model VSM for the G & K product line. Reduced the head count on the line by three operators, while at the same time increasing through put and productivity.
Conducted VSM for materials where we reduced the floor stock of material on line by 30%. Implemented 1piece flow scenarios over the facility and making the parts flow processes common for assembly increasing line productivity.
I lead the VSM for the D & E Product line, were we were able to combine both product lines while cutting the overall head count on the line down two operators. We also increase the through put of the line, and created space for a new product line.
I lead a Cell Design where we combined all D/E&M Product and equipment on one line improving quality and productivity.
Designed a poke yoke tool that helped eliminate escapes to the customer. (reed dispenser separation tool)

ENGINEERING PROJECTS

I implemented three new major production models, of which, I provided solutions for assembly jigs, manpower capacities, process flow, product flow, and operational management of the company's overall manufacturing process. ( Time Studies, & Process Value Stream Mapping & Management)
I created the logistics plan for the parts flow process resulting in a 30% manpower reduction and a 15% equipment reduction by creatively finding a solution to move parts with automated guided vehicles. The cost for the project was an initial $200,000 investment; however, solution resulted in a 3.3million dollar savings over 3years.
I help design a SharePoint System to data mine data from a variety of internal data sources in the facility. The system helped us understand the company’s manufacturing capacities in various areas. The system also helped us reduce time when completing objectives, setting priorities for projects.

I was Special Projects Engineer for a Greenfield project. During this time help install a new assembly line and relocated the RTV assembly line to the new building. I developed solutions, plans, and facilitated the move of the entire RTV assembly line myself.

Collaborated with a building renewal team that successfully designed a new building floor plan, of which, I was the drafter. I also created a complete automated lean manufacturing Value Stream for the current multi-million dollar facility that supports the now and future Kubota Utility Vehicle product line.
I successfully oversaw the start-up and development of the Kubota Assembly Line, Paint System, and Automated Guided Vehicle System that improved production’s capacity by more than 50%.
Spearheaded the successful acquisition and installation of a Line-X Cargo Bed Booth for the Kubota Special Addition Utility Vehicle resulting in a proven process of which exceeded the capacity by 50% for manufacturing the new bed liner for the Utility Vehicle.

Engineered an on-going future business plan in the building II facility to increase production numbers by 50% while identifying and forecasting difficult institutional and strategic conditions from company data and a developed a matrix.
Developed a Downtime Report System that tracks company-wide downtime and issues in real time. The development of the DTR system helped increase production efficiency and replace a 25million dollar system that was to be acquisition. My system was developed using current company technology cost only a fraction of the previously desired system.
