Lines 1 & 2 Bottling Expansion

121 BPM for 128 oz; 200 BPM for 64 oz; 183 hours/year changeover reduction; 5.5% OEE reclaimed; approximately $135K first-year labor optimization.

• Project Ownership

  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.

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.

Developed the line scope around equipment, pasteurization, utility and electrical interfaces. Used takt, FIFO, OEE and labor modeling to connect equipment choices with production demand, while construction sequencing, safety circuits and startup planning tied the design to live-plant execution.

• Adapt Statistical Methods When Assumptions FailApplication relevance
  Why these connect

  Which factors affect the response and are the model assumptions defensible? Alternative estimation methods require an observed assumption failure; none is invented here.

• Analyze Operating States and Equipment AvailabilityApplication relevance
  Why these connect

  How do variable demand, operating states and uncertain consequences affect the decision? Operating states are recorded; a fitted Markov transition model is not asserted.

• Analyze Queues, Throughput and Work in ProcessApplication relevance
  Why these connect

  How do variable demand, operating states and uncertain consequences affect the decision? Flow and bottlenecks are relevant; numerical queueing results require consistent observed boundaries and time bases.

• Apply Engineering Across Manufacturing and ConstructionApplication relevance
  Why these connect

  Which existing work demonstrates the capability in its professional context? This connection identifies where the capability can support the recorded work; it does not add a completed test or result.

• Check Model Fit and Statistical AssumptionsApplication relevance
  Why these connect

  Which factors affect the response and are the model assumptions defensible? This connection identifies where the capability can support the recorded work; it does not add a completed test or result.

• Compare Logistics, Routing and Service AlternativesApplication relevance
  Why these connect

  How do demand and lead-time uncertainty affect inventory and material movements? This connection identifies where the capability can support the recorded work; it does not add a completed test or result.

• Compare Manual and Automated Work AlternativesApplication relevance
  Why these connect

  How do observed work, travel and machine interactions determine resource needs? This connection identifies where the capability can support the recorded work; it does not add a completed test or result.

• Compare Production-Rate Factors and Group DifferencesApplication relevance
  Why these connect

  Which factors affect the response and are the model assumptions defensible? Production-rate comparisons provide application context; a specific Tukey HSD calculation on these projects is not asserted.

• Design Work-Measurement and Labor StudiesApplication relevance
  Why these connect

  How do observed work, travel and machine interactions determine resource needs? This connection identifies where the capability can support the recorded work; it does not add a completed test or result.

• Evaluate Forecast Accuracy and BiasApplication relevance
  Why these connect

  How do demand and lead-time uncertainty affect inventory and material movements? This connection identifies where the capability can support the recorded work; it does not add a completed test or result.

• Explore and Model Data with RApplication relevance
  Why these connect

  Can extraction, transformations and models be reproduced from identified inputs? Statistical review is relevant; use of R on the project is not inferred.

• Forecast Demand and Seasonal WorkloadApplication relevance
  Why these connect

  How do demand and lead-time uncertainty affect inventory and material movements? This connection identifies where the capability can support the recorded work; it does not add a completed test or result.
