Auditing Performance
With over 30 years of experience in the steel plant, Tom has excellent hands-on auditing experience in ISO for quality, safety, environment and overall management. Tom was also key in implementing World Class Manufacturing, 5S, etc, in a sustainable way. Tom would be able to go into any refractory or steel plant to audit these processes as well as refractory performance and operational factors influencing it. This section has some examples of this type of work with successful application of principles.
Tom has vast experience in steel making process and refractories production processes, which is a very rare combination. He audited our plant in India for safety, quality, productivity and layout in order to help us identifying the opportunities to improve our business results. He generated implementable tactics from short and quick, to capital ideas to help in the long term. His experience on the floor in manufacturing as well as at an executive level was invaluable to making the plans practical and acceptable to the team. He also did the follow-up audits to ascertain the progress. Overall, I am sure Tom can be of great guide in exploring and identifying opportunities to improvements in safe operating conditions & business efficiency”
