With the plan receiving C-Suite approval we implemented. I bird dogged managers in their office daily to make sure they updated task durations.

PEOPLE FIRST Did I mention I love managing people? As Ops Manager at Suitable Technologies I have hired and trained supervisors, mechanical engineers, software devs, QA, assembly techs and logistics clerks. I mentor 2 mechanical engineers who started out as junior assembly techs with us 3 years ago. I am always seeking ways to make our people better professionally and personally.
