■ Career achievements: Established the department’s first Data Analytics team. Drove five digital transformation projects, saving 940 man-hours per quarter: eight hours per person per week. Over two years, evolved the team from a three-member local engagement team to a seven-member global team, leading initiatives across three functions in the supply chain. Identified two critical process gaps by evaluating quarterly costs and identifying variances in purchase prices by manufacturers. Recovered US$3.9 million from manufacturers in 2019 and subsequently US$7 million until 2021, by remedying the gaps and by implementing mitigation measures to track and detect purchase price variances in real-time. Partnered with the VP of Supply Chain on two advisory projects to assess and identify potential metrics to quantify the risks of supply shortage from single-sourced components. Provided the directors with new insights and recommendations, leading to a reduction in single source dependency on materials worth US$560 million from 92% to 57%.
