You know how our current economy is driving huge cut backs in our nations corporate and defense budgets and how this is driving layoffs and everyone is looking for ways to do more with less. I solve this by helping organization's remove waste and standardize their operations, then automating the necessary processes that are frequently performed and labor intensive. I do this by utilizing a proven methodology thats based on working with an organizations leadership, staff and teams and focuses on exceeding an organizations mission, goals, and vision for the future. This results in a tailored Action Plan, where I utilize my experience for the best tools and techniques for process and system analysis and improvement. My methodology drives the continuous capture of key data and metrics, allowing the initial data to be used as a baseline for quantifying improvements. Often this can be automated with real time feedback enabling better decisions, as well as an environment for culture change, organization innovation, and continuous improvement. My business philosophy is to help others master the skills of continuous improvement and let them be the heros of their organization. In spite of the fact, I bring Fortune 500 level experience in managing large complex projects and achieved productivity improvement and cost management savings up to $144M, prepared and coordinated budgets as high as $3.9B, and monitored budgets up to $24B, people like working with me. I make change rewarding and fun while exceeding mission goals and objectives.

SELECTED PAST PERFORMANCE EXAMPLES


Directed critical innovation providing operational excellence. As Adamson Consulting Services, Inc. (ACS) Program Manager for the F-22 fighter aircraft logistics program, structured maintenance program for $65B defense initiative facing expanding maintenance costs without supporting budget increases. Providing lean reengineering expertise, methodology, tools and techniques, along with IT innovation, led joint F-22 Lockheed Martin Aeronautics (LMA) and Boeing Integrated Product Teams (IPT) in significant operational improvement through the use of enterprise assessment and strategic planning, electronic value stream mapping, and kaizen events establishing a program for culture change and continuous improvement. Managed, facilitated, and led hundreds of initiatives for LMA F-22 program over this period. Improved production, maintenance and operational availability schedules, saving millions of dollars. One such management consulting initiative was the identification of some 15,000 out dated requisitions for parts in an LMA legacy system that could not be stopped from shipping erroneously upon implementation of the new corporate IT system. The new IT system could not be delayed and LMA simply did not have the manpower or time to manually fix this problem. Developed the requirements for then directed the development of a software program that completed the work of finding and removing the old requisitions before the new IT system came online. Saved LMA and the F-22 Program an estimated $6.28M by preventing shipment of the wrong parts to the wrong locations across the world. Not to mention the greater savings based on the avoided mission impact for F-22 parts that would not have been available for F-22 mission requirements. Increased system availability, created shorter maintenance and repair cycles, and reduced costs. Inadequate vendor parts supply performance was impacting pipeline support for US Armys Patriot Missile program. As Intergraphs Program Manager and Management Consultant, led transformation to Performance Based Logistics, in which vendors contracted to meet performance metrics rather than just supply goods and services.
