2. February 28, 2003 to March 22, 2004
Unemployed – Due to a major company cut back.
I had recently returned from an eight month assignment to Kilkeel, Ireland and as I held
no current assignments I was a logical candidate for lay off. B/E Aerospace
compensated me with a six month severance package including benefits.

Sept, 1999 to Feb 28, 2003
B/E Aerospace SPG, 1455 Fairchild Road, Winston-Salem, NC 27001
SENIOR PROGRAM MANAGER:
My primary duties involved the management of three major business and first class
seating development programs. This included the integration of the premium class seat
actuation control system programs.
All of these programs were successfully completed and delivered to the customer(s)
either directly, or via the Boeing Aircraft Group and Airbus Industries.
The latest program managed involved the development of a new technology 'lay flat'
business class seat for a large Asian airline. This program required strong program
communication skills due to the cultural challenges encountered with the different
language and customs associated with this Asian based customer.
Accomplishments:
* Program management of the design, development and on time delivery of B/E’s new
Swissair First Class 'Lay Flat' seat to Airbus Industries.
* Program management of the design, development and delivery of a new Japan
Airlines B747 Business Class 'Lay/Flat' seat. This passenger seat ultimately won the
coveted design award for excellence from the Chicago Athenaeum -Museum of
Architecture and Design.
* Successful on-time delivery of two major Japan Airlines B767 and B777 Business
Class seat programs to Boeing Commercial Aircraft Group.
* Development and delivery of an Airbus A380 First Class 'Lay Flat' Seat that was used
on the A380 mock up airplane in Toulouse, France.
* Value of programs managed ranged from $320K to $10M.

3. July, 1998 to Sept, 1999
Boeing Australia Limited, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia
SENIOR FMS/GPS PROJECT MANAGER:
Approached by Boeing's management to join them as the Project Manager for their
RAAF C 130H and B 707 FMS/GPS fleet retrofit program. This project was in a schedule
and cost overrun situation, my primary objective was to pull the delinquent and cost
overrun avionics project back into line. Another key objective was to restore Boeing's
relationship with this customer.
My team designed and developed the avionics hardware and software necessary to
tailor the Rockwell Collins Flight Management 800 System to meet the RAAF
requirements. We had to ensure that the integration, installation, ground test, flight
testing, and aircraft certification were successfully achieved in accordance with the re-
negotiated budget and schedule.
Required the need for close interface with Boeing head office and with the RAAF senior
management during the re-plan of the project due to the previous cost and schedule
overruns
Prepared and developed a revised Work Breakdown Structure, performed a re-baseline
of the existing NRE budget and schedule, relocated the project facility and re-staffed the
project with suitably skilled personnel.
Accomplishments:
* Implemented risk mitigation plans which resulted in the successful completion of the
Functional Test portion of this program on schedule. Qualification testing was
completed five days ahead of schedule.
* Improved Boeing's business relationship with the RAAF customer as well as with the
Rockwell Collins project subcontractor.
* Reduced the Functional Qualification Test failure rate from 84% to 4% through the use
of preliminary dry runs prior to formal testing.
* Relocated the project facility within the Qantas facility in Sydney to improve the internal
resource communications between engineering disciplines. Planned and relocated the
entire project to the new facility location with no impact to project schedule.
* Resourced the project with the appropriate technical skills and replaced unsuitable
resources.
* Received a cash bonus from Boeing for my achievement of the goals established at
the time of my employment.
* Value of program: $22M.
