                        I'm a contract industrial engineer doing business over 30 years for 50 plus corporations involving approximately 200 projects.  I can either analyze an entire factory or distribution center to develop a cost reduction master plan prior to implementation or perform productivity projects within the facility.  
 
The operational analysis that I perform is a detailed modernization ROI exercise in the stockroom, fabrication, assembly, w-i-p and finished goods departments and addresses materials handling mechanization & product automation feasibility as well as direct labor control systems.   This is an industrial engineering critique of plant wide operations and includes: 
•	Projected staffing based on 5 year sales forecast after my recommendations are installed
•	Plant-wide/departmental/work station layout 
•	Equipment specs/RFQ/quotes
•	Semi-automation tooling techniques such as pick & place robotics/precision vibratory grids/auto screw insertion/auto carton form & seal
•	Detailed productivity recommendations
•	Alternative material handling systems
•	Phased modular segments of our recommended system.               
 
My productivity projects are direct labor controls including time study, line balancing, layout, industrial engineered standards and methods, industrial incentives, short-interval-scheduling & labor reporting.  My productivity specialization project is in the semi-automation of assembly operations using paced production lines and robotic work cells - I've installed over 100 production lines for over 1000 finished products.  I also specialize in stockroom pick and pack systems with companies such as Dormer in Reading, PA whose system I designed and implemented in 1978 involving multiple retrieval carousels and a paced packaging system that is still going strong.
 
Most recently, I've been involved in the creation of a plant-wide gain sharing system for a steel coil manufacturing facility in Massachusetts & Army Depot tank transmission labor standards.
