How I can help your team.
Validation, process improvement, and technical support shaped around the work in front of you.
You may need a full qualification package, help executing a protocol, or someone to take a fresh look at a process issue. We can start with what is happening now and decide together where I can be useful.
Discuss a project ↗Validation & Qualification
A good validation package tells a clear story: what you needed the process or equipment to do, how it was tested, what happened, and what the results mean. I can help with the documents and with the hands-on execution.
- URS and requirements traceability matrices
- Validation plans, protocols, and summary reports
- IQ, OQ, and PQ development and execution
- Equipment and system verification support
- Test evidence, deviations, and final documentation
- Process capability and acceptance criteria
The goal is an organized set of documents and test records that your team can review, understand, and take through its approval process.
Process Improvement
If a process keeps drifting or a problem keeps coming back, I like to start with the people who know it best and the data that shows what is really happening. Then we can work toward a change that makes sense on the floor.
- Process mapping and baseline performance
- Variation and capability analysis
- Root cause and corrective action support
- PFMEA and control plan development
- Measurement and data review
- Implementation and effectiveness checks
The aim is for everyone to understand the issue, the reason for the change, and how the improvement will hold up in daily use.
Project & Improvement Leadership
I have led improvement work from the first investigation through changes on the production floor. If your team needs someone to help organize a defined effort, bring people together, and keep the work moving, I can take on that role.
- Leading cross-functional improvement projects
- Setting priorities, measures, and project milestones
- Facilitating root cause and problem-solving sessions
- Coaching teams in Lean and Six Sigma methods
- Working through implementation with the people who run the process
- Reviewing results and helping make gains stick
At Lear Corporation, I led a Six Sigma project addressing component placement in blow molding molds for flipper panels used in GM seat backs. The improvement reduced scrap and waste by approximately $2 million a year.
Technical Consulting
Sometimes the project is clear, but your team could use another experienced person to help get it across the finish line. I can step in for a specific piece of work or a defined stretch of the project.
- Manufacturing project planning and coordination
- Technical document development and review
- Equipment and process readiness assessments
- Supplier and cross-functional coordination
- Onsite protocol execution and issue follow-up
- Time-bound technical project support
I want the people who own the work to have the documents, answers, and context they need when my part is done.
Have a project you’d like to talk through?
Tell me what is going on. I’d be glad to hear about it and see whether I can help.
