With a proven track record at Southland Industries, I excel in lean shop design and workflow optimization, significantly enhancing productivity by tracking and improving employee output. My expertise in orbital welding and fostering team communication underscores my ability to drive quality and efficiency, achieving notable improvements in operational performance.
. Designed shop for lean application to cut down on waste and unnecessary movement to promote easier work flow in different area's.
. Exceeded corporation labor feedbacks by tracking productivity of each employee by weld inches, linear feet, quantity of pipe supports, trapezes and pipe skids.
. Managed material handling. Tracked material ordering, back orders and quotes to make sure the quantities were met, correct and on hand.
. Created a three step quality control plan for spools leaving the shop. Helps with keeping personnel accountable for the quality of their work before the spools leaves the shop.
. Created a shop weekly tool box talk every Tuesday. Where we go over safety issues, recent changes and fabrication qc expectations before the spools gets loaded on the trucks or trailers to be delivered to sites.
. Implemented daily morning meetings with the Forman's to go over work goals and needs for the day. As well as any schedule changes that may have been communicated.
. Look over spool drawings in Stratus when they are released to the shop for any missing dimensions, missing views of the spools that may not show all angles of the spool and missing items before the prints are released to the fabrication personnel.
. In stratus, I was able to dimension items if the dimension were missing.
. Wrote and sent RFI's to detailers if there were any issues with the spool drawings.
. Looked at P&ID's for spool drawing questions that need to be answered. EX. what material, valve or instrumentation to use if they are not called out in the BOM by part number.
. Attended staff meetings to go over material issues, schedules and any questions that the shop may have for the projects.
. Created a priority list by need dates for the fabricators to work towards and track to be sure the dates are being met.
. Created a priority revision log for fabricators and for tracking to be sure that the revisions are being completed and sent to the projects.
. Incourage ideas from personnel to come up with ways to make their job more efficient and safe to meet schedule mile stones.
. Created weld count logs, bend count logs, glue count logs, pro press logs etc, etc for labor feed back counts.
. Encourage communication between the shop team and management.
