Royal Caribbean Cruises, Ltd.

I was involved in a program that seeks to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from Royal Caribbean's fleet. Specifically, I worked on a project to improve the supply chain that supported each vessel. My objective was to design and implement an inbound/outbound process at a warehouse location that handled all parts bound to the vessels in the East coast of the United States. The second objective was to lead the initial development of a Logistics and Supply Chain Management tool.

Project Management - Newbuild
Vinar INC C.A.
I planed, coordinated and executed two warehouse relocation efforts. In both instances the goal was to accommodate an increasing demand, as well as to streamline the inbound and outbound processes. During the last project, we significantly reduced the average importing lead time. These activities combined resulted in a significant improvement of the company's service levels.

I redesigned our delivery logistics and incorporated the activity to the company, with the objective of reducing costs and delivering more value to our customers.

Our expansion strategy involved placing the company’s products in four major cities in Venezuela. To support those markets, we incorporated six new key products in our portfolio.

General Manager
P&G

My main project was improving the purchases strategy of a key raw material in baby diapers. I worked closely with a multi-function global team (USA, Europe and East Asia), enabling the business to identify the major constraints and opportunities in our supply chain.

To support this strategy, I designed and executed a major business deal with a key supplier in the region. The new deal gave P&G significant cost advantages over their competitors and important cost avoidance, and it gave our supplier stability in demand.

A major element in our strategy was to reduce risks associated with exports and imports in South America. In order to reduce that risk, we evaluated the suppliers that could support the business in the region, and qualified new ones based on a cost/benefit analysis.

I defined and executed a process for sorting and pre-cleaning returnable glass bottles and their containers, at distribution centers, to be sent back to the bottling facility. I also developed a detailed adoption plan of that process in other distribution centers, improving unnecessary downtime of bottle washers throughout the bottling network.
