Precision in Practice

I bring over a decade of experience supporting process improvement, audit readiness, and supplier accountability across the manufacturing and energy sectors.

Currently, at Clean Energy Associates, I conduct nationwide audits and performance evaluations for solar module manufacturers. My approach balances hands-on inspection with high-level data analysis, utilizing Power BI and SQL to turn raw metrics into clear, executive-level insights.

Whether implementing ISO 9001 standards or reducing reporting turnaround times by 75%, I focus on making quality systems work better-not just on paper, but in practice.

  • Tracked sustainability metrics related to waste, rework, and material lifecycle; supported early ESG-style reporting with clean, auditable data.

Stanton Carpet Corporation

Quality Administrator & QC Inspector

Mar 2013 - Jun 2023
Calhoun, GA
  • Investigated customer quality claims from intake through resolution; coordinated third-party laboratory testing and used SAP WMS to trace product lots and production history.
  • Built and maintained Power BI dashboards tracking claims trends, defect types, and recurring quality issues for leadership visibility.
  • Reduced reporting time for credit vs. sales analysis from over 8 hours to ~2 hours by restructuring data logic and sources.
  • Performed detailed inspections of finished carpet products ensuring conformance to specifications-dimensions, tolerances, appearance, and workmanship.
  • Worked directly with suppliers to request root cause analysis and corrective action documentation; held suppliers accountable for upstream defects.
  • Trained inspectors on defect identification and classification; developed internal quality checklists and inspection criteria for continuous improvement.
  • Served as quality liaison between production, logistics, customer service, and management-maintaining audit-ready documentation over long production cycles.

Proven Results: Quality Engineering Case Studies

Selected projects where data-driven quality and process improvement delivered measurable impact-defect reduction, unified reporting, and audit readiness.

Summaries below. For holistic, research-backed deep dives (methodology, data, outcomes, lessons), see the Case Studies page and click into any case study.

Process Improvement

Defect Reduction & Statistical Process Control (SPC)

High defect rate on a critical assembly line was driving rework and customer complaints. Led root cause analysis (8D, 5-Why), implemented SPC limits and real-time Power BI dashboards, and trained operators on out-of-control response.

Outcomes

  • ~40% defect reduction
  • Faster containment via automated alerts
  • Audit-ready SPC documentation

Analytics & Dashboards

Unified Quality Dashboards

Quality and production data lived in spreadsheets and legacy systems. Built a single source of truth with SQL ETL and Power BI dashboards for incoming, in-process, and customer quality-enabling daily standups and trend analysis.

Outcomes

  • ~60% less time on manual reporting
  • Same-day visibility for management
  • Drill-down from plant to part level

Quality Systems

CAPA & Audit Readiness

CAPA and nonconformance records were fragmented; external audits required last-minute scrambling. Standardized CAPA workflow, linked evidence and corrective actions, and created a central audit pack with traceability to ISO 9001.

Outcomes

  • Zero major findings in follow-up audit
  • Faster CAPA closure with clear ownership
  • Supplier audit scorecards in one place
CAPA ISO 9001 Auditing Document Control

Lean Six Sigma

DMAIC & Throughput Breakthrough

Bottlenecks on a high-volume line were capping output and delaying shipments. Led a DMAIC project: value-stream mapping, root cause of cycle-time variation, and Lean interventions (setup reduction, pull signals). Validated with before/after process capability.

Outcomes

  • ~30% throughput increase
  • ~25% cycle time reduction
  • Sustained gains via control plans

Supplier & Measurement

Supplier Quality & Gage R&R

Supplier escapes and measurement inconsistency were driving disputes and rework. Rolled out a Gage R&R program across 12+ critical lines, aligned acceptance criteria with AQL sampling, and built supplier scorecards in Power BI for incoming quality.

Outcomes

  • ~50% reduction in supplier escapes
  • %GRR <30% on key characteristics
  • Single dashboard for 15+ supplier sites

Process Capability

Process Capability (Cpk / Ppk)

Critical characteristics were running with Cpk <1; line-downs and scrap were frequent. Drove a process capability initiative: capability studies, centering and variation reduction, and PPAP-aligned documentation. Wired Cpk/Ppk into real-time dashboards.

Outcomes

  • Cpk >1.33 on critical CTQs
  • ~80% fewer line-down events
  • PPAP-ready capability evidence
