Newly arrived at the site of SAINT GOBAIN QUARTZ at Nemours, I have to put in place a tool for decision support in terms of supply planning and forecasting sales.
Under the coordination of various stakeholders in this project, my main activities are:
- Define the solution (choosing software)
- Collect data (ranges and classifications sales history)
- Coordinate our department, the provider chosen and the company in charge of our ERP
- Train users
- Provide start-up assistance

This mission should end on April

My mission was:
- to take the place of the usual manager detached on a SAP modification project
- to organize and distribute the tasks between the various members of the department
- to take part in SAP set up like Key user
- Restore an industrial service rate (compliance level) somewhat degraded

Arrived to BLEDINA in january, My mission is:
- to structure the flow department following a transfer of competence coming from the headquarter (forecasts of sale inter business units) and the arrival of additional resources (engineers flow)
- to organize and distribute the tasks between the various members of the service
- to take part in SAP starting like Key To user
- to organize the information exchanges between the seat and the factory in order to build a realistic PDP

ALSTOM wished to set up an Advanced Store Suppliers (ASW) on the site of PETITE FORET (VALENCIENNES).

The framework of this project concerned:

the logistic study itself .surface necessary, search of a building and a person receiving benefits and study of the references to be transferred in this new store.

The commercial step with respect to the had a presentiment of suppliers. Drafting of a sales leaflet and a standard contract. Canvassing of the suppliers to the signature.

At the end of the mission 5 suppliers accepted the contract and ten thought of it on 30 potential suppliers.

My mission is to finalize the establishment of SAP in production and production control on the site of FRONVILLE (the HIGH MARNE). The initial establishment having been realized without real implication of the personnel, I must:
- To parameterize the software (cards articles, flow of production)
- To carry out the tests of validation
- To define the good practices in production (seized by the OF) and in logistics (planning and provisioning).
- To accompany the personnel in the implementation by these good practices
- To reorganize the logistic service by redistributing the various tasks

Within the framework of a four month mission (september to december),I was Logistics manager for THYSSENKRUPP, automobile spare parts manufacturer. I was guaranteeing availability of the products and their routing to our customer the RENAULT factory of SANDOUVILLE (76)

I manage a cell scheduling/supplying of 2 people, a team of 5 forklift drivers and a coordinator transport.

As of my arrival, I restored the good practices (cycle countings) in order to have reliable data of provisioning. I also obtained production which it respects the plan of production and I reorganized transport on purchases to limit the costs of them. The service rate passed from 77 to 97%.

Within the framework of a 3 months mission (April to July), my principal tasks were the following ones:
- management of a warehouse of 10000 m2 with 20 people and 2600 references
- coordination of the activities of loading and unloading to deliver the orders in requested quantities, qualities and times
- Management of transport (organization and transport prices negotiation)

A better distribution of the workload (reception and forwarding) and a rigorous follow-up of the productivity enabled me to ensure a volume of forwarding in growth of 20% with an identical team.
Secteur : Import - Export

Within the framework of a one month mission (February), I ensured the management of a team of planners (2 people). My principal realization was to create a specific tool starting from extraction of the ERP (MAPIX) which makes it possible more effectively to start again the suppliers located on the critical path

I joined the above-mentioned firm on 1st september 2006 for a wide logistics mission.
My first tasks were the following:
- setting up of the whole scheduling
- removal between two warehouses
- creation of the range and nomenclature in the GPAO system following the transfer of production into another plant.

Thereafter, I dealt with the whole of the supply chain.

I guaranted the availability of the products in the warehouse as well as theirs delivery at the customer: I managed the manufacture scheduling of our two factories Lille and Toulouse using specific tools extracts of our CAM. I adjusted launchings with the capacities which the persons in charge of production gave me. I held informed the administration of the sales of the items out of stocks and the date of availability of the products.
With regard to forwardings, I chose the conveyers and I dimensioned the team according to the estimated workload.
Our availability ratio reached more than 95% thanks to this new organization.

I was in full charge of the availibility of the final products in a paint production plant which delivered 30.000 tons a year.
I was responsible for the planning (3000 items) and the supply (2000 items)
I managed a team of six persons in charge of the planning, supply and checking of the products being made there.
My main success was to put in place a better coordination between the three main departments of the plant:
manufacturing, conditionning and packaging preparation.
Thanks to that, the availibility rate of the final products went from 95% to 99% according the markets (DIY or professionnal).
Thanks to this job, I acquired a perfect master of SAP MM system.

I was expected to manage a 7000 square meters warehouse that dealt with 100 tons a day with the help of 15 persons.

At this post, I was in charge of the following tasks:
- WMS installation (SAP management of warehousing module)on this site. The project comprised the definition of the specifications, the validation tests, the training of the personnel and the starting up.
- WMS installation in another warehouse of the Business Unit FRANCE. The project was similar but more complex because it required a specific software for the on-board equipment.
- transfer of the logistics activity towards this second warehouse. The project comprised the customization of WMS to house 2 Business Units within the same warehouse, the validation tests and the transfer. This one was realized in september 2004 without any impact on the customers.

My targets were the following:
- to coordinate the supply unit (forecasts,planning and supply with 5 persons).
- to guarantee the availability rate of the products and the stock level.
- to supervise the raw materials and packing warehouse (5000 items)
- to be a PRODSTAR expert(ERP)
I had got the following results:
- the goods availability rate was improved by 5% thanks to best commercial forecasts.
- the supply stock was maintained (75 millions of francs) in spite a strong rise (Mad Cow Disease kit of detection).

My missions were the following:
- Production personnel management (200 persons)
- Service and maintenance of the factory (budget:2 millions francs)
- Shipping operations management
- Management of the environment files
- Dealing with the social partners

Results: equal to the others plants of the groupe despite of structural handicaps (small factory wedged in the city)

My missions were the following:
- Production personnel management (120 persons)
- Scheduling of the production (200 final product items and 3 workshops)
- Purchasing of packaging and raw materials,except for the frozen fish (budget of 45 millions of francs)
- Maintenance (budget 2 millions francs)

Main result: thanks to a better production management based on an EXCEL spreadsheet program, the stocks and onstanding material were reduced by 10% and the availability rate was improved by 5%.
