February, 10 2017 - Verified by The University of AlabamaI managed capital projects that involved resource conservation, compliance, and safety. I recognized the need, proposed a solution, gathered competitive bids from vendors and contractors, and oversaw project completion. I lead the installation of a more efficient Nitrogen generation system that will save the plant ~$89,000 annually in liquid Nitrogen and energy costs. The most rewarding part was getting to lead machine start-up with the lead mechanic on site. I worked with my manager and a company specializing in compressed air systems to conduct an audit of the plants air system. I completed Capital Appropriation Requests for the remodel of the bin room and reconstruction of a portion of the roof, after being involved in the planning process of both projects. After receiving funding approval, I managed the remodel of a restroom that had been previously shut down. Construction is now complete and it has helped to improve the ratio of restrooms to number of employees. I worked to remove standing water from the floors to decrease the risk of harboring harmful pathogens by having steam leaks fixed in the boiler room and requesting funds to install a drain in the trash room, emulating successful drain designs implemented in other areas of the plant.
I digitized historical data including back-up documentation for fixed assets, sales and use tax, and accounts payable. I participated in daily accounts receivable processes and conducted analysis of proposed capital expenditure projects.
