Realizari:

Jun 2010 – Nov 2011 New Farm - Investment
The deliverables of the 400,000 Euro project were:
• An advanced way to collect, separate, store and spread liquid and solid fertilizer that comes up from cow manure to the agricultural fields.
• A system to collect the pluvial water from the farm making a buffer for the fire extinction and dilution for the fertilizer.
The project was finished in time, aligned in scope with my internal customers, along with a budget savings of 5 percent. Additionally, the solutions complied with all the Water & Environmental requirements in place.

Other projects:
• Deliverable: A new pig line for cottage, a sterile line for fruit tanks during filling. Both projects come up from continuous improvement process. Initiator of one and responsible for both projects execution I have lead a team of local resources and international one. The project demonstrated a ROI in the predicted time – six months. The savings recovered the investment in the specified time above and is reducing the production cost significantly.
• Deliverable: Completed a refurbishment and upgrade of two buildings in the company’s farm. I was the Project Manager for this 45,000 Euro project that finished in the agreed time with the maximum client satisfaction. The capacity increased and the conditions for the calves improved significantly.

Innovate and Reapply:
• Reapplying aeronautic technology we have repaired and modified two filling machines. The repair cost was 15% versus the initial estimation done by the original manufacturer and executed by stopping the filling machine no more than 7 days offering an on-going stability of the production line. Machine capable now for set & stirred.
• I have convinced top management to switch to a new cup shape with higher stability on the shelf minimizing the occupancy space without decreasing the quantity. The new cup enabled an increase of 5% in sales for the SKU.
• I have designed and implemented a complete system for maintenance management. The entire maintenance team has learned to use the new system, minimizing the need for continual re-work while maximizing efficiency.

Operational Facts
• I have leaded the maintenance from a 100% reactive action to an 85% preventative action that lead to less production stops.
• Involved in implementation of OEE system. In two years the machines increased their OEE from 35% to 65%.
