Career Summary
March/06 – May/14 ZODIACAEROSPACE :
AUTONOMUS PRODUCTION UNIT MANAGER SINCE JUNE 2008
• Production of motors, actuators, sensors, harness for aeronautical applications (Airbus, Boeing, ATR, Eurocopter…) and Tachogenerators Encoder for industrial purposes.
• Manage the resources of the APU (150 operatives, 25 managerial staff: Production, Quality, Process and Logistic services…)
• Responsible for implementing strategies to increase efficiency, maintain quality, and ensure continuous improvement of production, and manufacturing processes and procedures. Implemented work cells, with visual shop floor control, single piece flow and kanban pull systems, made effective use of 5S, kaizen, waste elimination, production meetings and key measurements.
• Implementing getting the Quality management certification according to the EN9100.
as “Production Processes Pilot “.
• Lead VSM project for technical actuator workshop (Airbus A380) and implement one piece flow production system , which has improved the productivity by 100%
• Lead 5S project for the “Special process Workshop” through the supervision of engineer graduated project. Quality improvement by more than 30%
• Decreasing considerably customer complaints rate for the A320 wiper motor
By leading a task force team that improves the whole motor flow (analyzing supply chain, reduce non added value operations, improving supplier components quality…).
• Successfully implemented new project on design and introduction of new manufacturing line for Harness.
• Achieve financial targets: prepare and present the APU budget; manage the actual production costs based on ‘ideal’ costs; maintain product margin, and monitor serial productivity (labor level, material consumption, etc.).
• Manage improvement projects through the APU Master plan (VSM, HOSCHIN, 5S, KANBAN…)
• Implementing a KANBAN based production system between workshops.
• Implementing KANBAN system in the store workshop.
• Implement action plans in order to improve functionality/productivity and to obtain program and Group objectives (Hoshin Kanri); make necessary corrective adjustments.
• Lead “Daily quality” project.
• Managing the OTD “On Time delay “through OTD action plan. .
• Championed cross-functional launch teams that included “product engineers, process engineers, industrial engineers, maintenance, quality, and production personnel” that re-engineered production layouts, process environments in parallel to new product design for manufacturing, and rapid production ramp ups. Results were improved layouts, better part presentation, improved safety, ergonomics, workplace organization, visual controls, standardized work and development of the planned maintenance program.
