Dear Professional Recruiter,

I am currently seeking new career challenges and I am interested in high level supply
chain positions, preferably in manufacturing, distribution, warehousing, transportation,
and logistics. My background spans several industries such as food, automotive, plastics,
and building products.

My experience spans over 25 years of generating positive results in various size
organizations through the use of my leadership skills, advanced education, and
certifications, knowledge and implementation of technology systems, Lean methods, and
metrics to drive accountability. I’m a turn-around specialist in operations management.

   •   Implemented Lean Manufacturing saving $300K in finished goods inventory.
   •   Designed and launched Navistar’s New Lean 1M sq. ft. Midwest Global
       Distribution Center
   •   Implemented Lean Distribution Heijunka Board increasing productivity by 9.1%.
   •   Implemented 5s and 5s safety in multi-facility setting
   •   Implemented visual reorder point and Kanban
   •   Implemented Red Prairie’s WMS DLx in 90 days where no legacy system existed
   •   Reduced material handling staff saving $240K through the use of ASRS pick-to-
       light technology
   •   Implemented labor and quality metrics / standards increasing productivity 300%
   •   Designed new Middleby Elgin DC incorporating RF and TMS technologies
   •   Increased manufacturing capacity by 100% while adding no direct or indirect
       labor
   •   Transitioned $150M company from MTO to MTS reducing lead time from 5 to
       less than 3 days.
   •   Implemented new transportation strategy saving $5M over three years
   •   Optimized routings for GM engines saving $100K
   •   Single-sourced transportation saving $0.5M / yr
   •   Created carrier score cards achieving enhanced on-time and claim-free
       performance
   •   Negotiated all modes of transportation contracts

Additionally, I have 19 years of high-volume food production experience in a very fast
paced environment with a sense of urgency second to none. While at Sky Chefs /
American Airlines, as Materials Manager my team was responsible for the planning &
production of 48,000 meals per day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year. All of which
could not be one minute late and had to be of the highest standards. My food experience
spans, procurement, storage, handling, sanitation, preparation & production, account
management, and delivery.

These were just a few of the accomplishments through my effective use of available
resources, both human and material. I am attaching my resume as well as my Portfolio of
Services which showcases many of the strategies and tactics that I have employed over
my career to solve complex business issues.

As you can see by my resume, I have a long and pronounced career of reducing costs,
improving efficiencies, increasing throughput, and providing award winning service in
multiple supply chain management positions. I am a dedicated, hard working individual
who always get the job done.

I thank you in advance for your consideration and look forward to hearing from you soon.


Sincerely,
Mike
