APOLLO AUTOMATIONJAMES WARREN · ENGINEERING & PROJECT LEADERSHIPCASE-049 · Workstream overview
An overview of the related projects, technical interfaces and outcomes within this workstream.
Project scope and individual work packages are presented separately; project totals are not additive to their component values.
Led engineering coordination for the combo-capper, conveyor, cryogenic dosing and bulk-nitrogen upgrades, including automated closure refilling, storage and cryogenic-piping interfaces, dosing verification, safety systems and SCADA telemetry. Developed AFE/budget scope and coordinated procurement, installation and startup.
The capital-planning workstream covers chemical dosing and storage modernization. Its portfolio value describes the represented project scope.
Achieved 150 BPM rated capper capacity and improved nitrogen dosing verification at the SCADA layer.
Reduced changeover time by roughly 35 percent and improved cap application quality across multiple SKUs. Improved nitrogen-use efficiency by approximately 12 percent through bulk storage conversion and dosing optimization.
Reduced nitrogen loss by about 72 percent through bulk storage, cryogenic piping and dual-doser control integration. The documented nitrogen, vent-off and integration benefit is approximately $90,000 per year; these descriptions refer to one shared benefit.
Lowered unplanned downtime through conveyor-controls rework and coordinated closure handling, dosing verification and bulk-nitrogen supply.
Workstream covering chemical dosing and storage modernization across its named projects, with project-level engineering scope, capital values and operating context.
Delivered a combo capper rated at 150 BPM and improved nitrogen-dosing verification at the SCADA layer; The nitrogen business case modeled approximately $90K/year an annual benefit following coordination and tuning; Reduced changeover time by roughly 35 percent while improving cap application quality on multi-SKU runs; Improved nitrogen use efficiency by approximately 12 percent via bulk storage conversion and dosing optimization; Lowered unplanned downtime with conveyor-controls rework; the associated financial figure belongs to the same modeled benefit context; Reduced nitrogen loss by about 72 percent through bulk storage, cryogenic piping, and dual-doser control coordination; Evaluated nitrogen vent-off and inefficiency reduction within that modeled annual-benefit case.
Workstream Cost: 13500 K.
Coordinated the combo-capper, conveyor, closure-refill and cryogenic dosing upgrades with bulk-nitrogen storage, cryogenic piping, safety systems and SCADA dosing verification.

Full lifecycle project ownership
Project Leadership
Led engineering coordination and capital planning for capper, conveyor, cryogenic dosing, nitrogen storage, telemetry and SCADA interfaces.
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.
