TECHNICAL SKILLS

Plant Maintenance: Maintain plant equipment in accordance with vendors
recommended preventative maintenance programs, as per outlined. Follow ups were
created by equipment operating time review and scheduling was modified to
accommodate this. Analysis of PDM data was implemented to schedule overhauls of
chillers and boilers before equipment PM  's become critical repairs. I utilized
Maximo to schedule downtime with production scheduling, while scheduling labor
and contractors, if needed, to get he work accomplished on time. This was very
hard to do in a 7/24 environment if at all. 

Inventory Management:
Inventory was managed in to ways. The small parts were managed through VMI,
while the more expensive parts were managed through ABC. Warehousing was done
through storeroom creation and parts were stored trade classification. Maximo was
utilized and AB inventory parts were added as assets. Critical parts were also
inputted as assets due to the critical plant need to operate in the event they
were not available while there was a failure.

Special Projects:

1. Worked with the Air Force on the Topaz project. Topaz required backup power
to maintain power throughout testing of a nuclear power supply for space
missions, which our company was responsible for. In addition, I aided the Air
Force engineer in keeping costs under budget. 

2. I worked on developing the XC unit for PS&C. This was the launch of a
different style of large UPS for the company. It would utilize less foot print
and at the same overcome maintenance and operational issues in the field. I was
also responsible for the control logic programming which we utilized the Allen
Bradley SLC 500 PLC for this unit.

island in the Mississippi river.
