Cooperated extensively with product developers to analyze quality standards, legal requirements and other requirements to ensure the successful roll-out of new products to global markets. Reviewed exceptional release plans to mitigate complications and maintain adherence to quality standards.
• Championed the development and implementation of multiple testing methods. Designed testing process to conduct in-house vitamin analysis. Reviewed all company requirements and identified key opportunities to adapt current resources for new program. This led to the significant reduction of more than $100K in expenses.
• Designed and implemented new method for texture testing. Reviewed possible measures to determine efficacy in testing age-related metrics for diverse product ranges. Utilized in-house statistical analysis tools, as well as Minitab to facilitate measurements and determine key areas to optimize products.
• Generated spreadsheets and other documentation to track turn-around-times (TAT) and maximize efficiency. Utilized Microsoft Office Suite, Visual Basic and other programs to track samples, prioritize testing projects and tabulate completion times. This led to significantly improved cross-departmental communications among product developers and enhanced TAT from 80% to more than 95%.
