Expert (pronounced ko-val-ski, ) has conducted seminars and instructed consultants on how to utilize state-of-the-art project management techniques. He can develop project plans and evaluate project management software and techniques. He can assist or critique how to set up, schedule, plan, track, adjust, revise, and manage one, or several projects simultaneously, using milestone and critical path methods. Applications can be as wide as new product introduction, plant construction or materials modification.



Expert assists in the evaluation and implementation of advanced technology integration, efficiency improvement, waste reduction, productivity, regulatory compliance (GMP and ISO 9000), strategic planning, business strategies, acquisition analysis, due diligence, cost containment, cost-of-quality, utilization of self-directed work teams, evaluating material sources and subcontractors, customer services, benchmarking, systems and organizational reengineering, return goods reduction, and improved service tracking. Reducing order time and shortening manufacturing cycles with reduced waste for cost containment are areas of focus. He is also familiar with inagurated Critical Business Process Modeling (CBPM), an innovative technique, to identify value added operations and associated costs.

Expert can benefit materials management by improving planning and scheduling methods, incorporating MRP, inventory reduction, JIT operations, supplier integration, capacity assessment, distribution and warehouse requirements, strategic alliances, development of control systems, reduce return goods through improved service tracking and increase customer services. He can develop business models to evaluate centralization, consolidation, and expansion.

Expert provides systems and communication analysis to reduce delays, paperwork, and improve productivity. He focuses on technology utilization, workload reduction, rightsizing staff, developing information reporting systems, re-engineering process and introducing information sharing. Applications have been adopted in staff areas including offices and laboratories for management systems. These analyses are also used to develop effective disaster recovery and effective management information systems. These principles were installed in industry, business, and government operations. The major manufacturers served include biotech, pharmaceutical, medical device, chemical, instrumentation, and electronics. They include regulatory compliance requirements for FDA, GMP, OSHA, USDA, RCRA, ISO 9000, GLP, and EPA.

Expert develops pragmatic ways to improve productivity, equipment selection, warehouse layouts, inventory control methods, technology assessment, downsizing, outsourcing, subcontracting, automation, locator systems, space utilization, barcoding applications, supplier certification, JIT principles, and shorter cycle time. He uses a profit center approach to warehousing, a model for managing total warehouse operations and costs, and an emphasis on customer service, work simplification, performance measurement, and quality. His experience includes conducting seminars nationally for Clemson University and Inc. Learning Center.
