Why the Work Mattered

Purpose and Operating Need

Selected Stage-gate with application-test iterations at Medium / standard effort and Standard speed; sequenced as Wave 3.

Engineering Approach

Engineering Approach

Delivered application scope included requirements, formulation interfaces, pilot trials, soluble-RBE treatment methods, analytical testing, customer qualification, packaging specifications, launch controls, technical-service turnover, and performance work for water retention, cooked yield, texture, purge, slicing, and shelf life. Records cover five application classes and a 3-9% phosphorous evidence basis. Led delivery and release of the application and pilot capability through test iterations, analytical methods, packaging specifications, qualification controls, launch controls, and technical-service handover.

Outcome & Engineering Context

Outcome and Context

Delivered the application and pilot platform through accepted operational turnover and closeout.

Engineering scope and design basis

Food ingredients manufacturer Capital Project Engineer; owning workstream PG-B-02; authority VP Innovation.

2013-01-15 to 2015-06-30; budget $4,200,000; forecast variance (budget less EAC) $84,000.

Directed the translation of approved scope into procurement and supplier-data requirements, construction/configuration work packages, inspection and change records, mechanical completion and readiness evidence.

Used requirements-to-acceptance traceability, WBS and control schedule, cost/resource registers, agreements and acceptance records, baselines, risk/change controls, commissioning evidence, training, and G9 ownership transfer.

Pilot-equipment sanitation and release; raw/cooked and species/matrix segregation; ingredient identity and dose; cold-chain and time-temperature control; post-lethality handling; clean sampling and custody; package integrity; traceability; microbiological qualification; method-transfer acceptance.

76 controlled project documents across nine lifecycle phases, 362 linked execution records, accepted G1-G9 gates, and final baseline PRJ-B-002-BL-OT-B01.

OPERATIONAL / CLOSED; 5 application classes; 3-9% phosphorous evidence basis; operational turnover completed

Operations received Application and pilot platform with accepted configuration, procedures, training, asset and maintenance records, residual-item disposition, and ownership.

Delivered Application and pilot platform, measured by 5 application classes; 3-9% phosphorous evidence basis; operational turnover completed, by executing Stage-gate with application-test iterations from concept through G9 closeout.
