APOLLO AUTOMATIONJAMES WARREN · ENGINEERING & PROJECT LEADERSHIPCASE-012 · Engineering case
Led engineering coordination for acetator and filtering expansion intended to increase local vinegar availability and reduce routine inter-plant shipments.
Reduce inter-plant transportation costs by an estimated $1.3M annually through elimination of routine inter-plant shipments for additional WDV supply.
Engineering scope: Acetator capacity expansion, wine centrifuge clarification, ceramic vinegar polishing, truck batch loadout coordination.
The plan estimated approximately $1.3M/year in transportation-cost reduction. The local-production basis was approximately 0.5M gallons/year; these are planned benefits rather than accepted operating savings.

Acetator #6 and ACV Filtering Expansion
Full lifecycle project ownership
Owned the full project lifecycle: capital planning and prioritization, need definition, feasibility and scope development, engineering and AFE justification, procurement and vendor coordination, construction sequencing and field oversight, commissioning, turnover, and post-startup support. Connected operating requirements with technical scope, funding decisions, execution readiness, and the needs of operations and maintenance.
Project coordination
Project coordination
Engineering equipment supply, contractor installation and engineering/plant commissioning were separately assigned in the expansion plan.
Project coordination
Project coordination
Contractor installation was a separately assigned part of the expansion plan.
The acetator #6 and ACV filtering schedule sequences support-equipment, piping and electrical ordering ahead of mechanical/electrical installation and the 50,000-gallon tank installation.
Owned the full project lifecycle: capital planning and prioritization, need definition, feasibility and scope development, engineering and AFE justification, procurement and vendor coordination, construction sequencing and field oversight, commissioning, turnover, and post-startup support. Connected operating requirements with technical scope, funding decisions, execution readiness, and the needs of operations and maintenance.
Aligned the acetator scope with wine clarification, ceramic polishing and truck-batch loadout. Developed the transportation business case alongside the process capacity requirements, making production flow and logistics part of the same capital decision.
