ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Developing Business Worth USD 1M (TechniAir). The client was a large player in the aviation arena, serving the Indian Subcontinent Civil & Military market. Their aircraft required an avionics upgrade to replace obsolete devices and remain compatible with their current design requirements. I analyzed the clients technical & operational requirements and identified suitable solutions. Effective negotiations with global providers like Honeywell, Garmin & Thales allowed us to develop a commercial proposition that would possibly differentiate us and mutually benefit both parties. We successfully secured tenders with an annual business worth of USD 1 million. Pioneering Malaysias Largest LPG Tanker The 51 Tonner (Shell Malaysia-Transport) Delivering 27 tonnes of LPG Safely & Economically throughout the Peninsular, it outdoes the existing trucks that deliver 15 tonnes. I began by developing the project objective and derived a plan to support it. The plan would encompass Regulatory approvals from the RT Department & Department of Safety & Health, resource management & work progress for the fabricator and stage review to ensure were in line with the approved design and set timelines. I was constantly engaging the local & Dutch manufacturers as the Regulatory Authorities. Designed with modern steer systems and safety features, the tanker provides easier equipment management, drive comfort and accessibility to smaller facilities. Its currently generating approximately USD 100k in savings and 40% reduced road exposure. Revolutionizing Truck Technology (Shell Malaysia-Transport) Customer premises are often small, difficult to manoeuvre & sometimes filled with obstacles. As the existing trucks were reaching their optimal age, I was tasked to replace them with trucks that would deliver more & tackle the agility issue. Using that theme as my objective, my plan addressed the Regulatory approvals involved, manufacturer resource availability & work completion. Progress was reviewed to ensure alignment to project timelines and objectives. Existing Rigid trucks could only transport 6 tonnes but we delivered the pioneering 10 tonner Rigid truck delivering larger payloads to customers with smaller facilities. Leveraging on Pioneer Technology to Optimize Deliveries (Shell Malaysia-Transport) Growing costs required the business to re-look its operations. A project was started to Optimize deliveries and it was decided that we would now assist our customers in managing their stock and turn it into a Customer Value Proposition. We implemented the Telemetry System that would allow us to monitor customer tanks & arrange for optimized deliveries. My challenge was to effectively plan equipment requirement identification, delivery & installation. Upon completion of sites across the country, we improved Customer Stock Management that led to Scheduling & Order Taking. This initiative is now a key CVP that attracts customers & improved fleet delivery performance by 20%. Winning the 2010 Global VP Award for Change Category (Shell Malaysia-Pasir Gudang). After several incidents in 2008, Shell globally embarked on the Goal Zero journey. My challenge was to motivate our operators to embrace safety and sustain their awareness and benefits of it. Faced with high operator turnover, we began by Walking the Talk and establishing the Operators League. I led my team to personally engage our operators about their concerns on safety and performance. We first addressed conditions that led to unsafe behaviour. We then moved to develop proactive behaviours with timely resolution of concerns to deliver proactive confidence to our operators. The Operators League allowed us to reward positive behaviours and reprimand negative ones. I would host Quarterly Celebrations for Incident Free Quarters, and every quarter was safe indeed. The plant successfully achieved 2 years Incident Free & worker turnover reduction of 20%.

Rainwater Recycling. (Shell Malaysia-Pasir Gudang). Realizing the need the have sustainable cost reduction, we identified water use as a potential with both financial & environmental sustainability benefits. Noting the acidity of the water in that area, we realized its cleaning potential. Our plant was an ideal place to collect rainwater & channel them into tanks. The collected water was used for various purposes throughout the plant. 7 tanks & some pipe work later, we were already seeing savings that paid back within 1 year. Average savings was approximately 30%. LPG VP Runner Up Award for Plant Optimization (Shell Malaysia-Port Dickson). We reviewed our equipment and processes to improve production, reduce waste and improve working conditions. We insulated or rubber lined noise generating equipment, replaced laborious tools with motor driven or simplified automated systems. We revamped existing layouts and practices to improve safety & efficiency. This delivered faster processes, less noise and fatigue translating into improved productivity. We improved our Production Efficiency by 10% and reduced truck turnaround time by 30%. Once achieving a better control of our consumables and parts requirements, we negotiated for better commercial and delivery terms with our suppliers in exchange for larger quantity purchases with long term arrangements. This allowed reduced stock holding, systematic order placement and delivery. 25% Cost Reduction & Effluent Control through Green Products & Processes. (Shell MalaysiaPort Dickson) Complying with environmental standards economically & sustainably required our operations to effectively replace traditional lubricants, cleaners & liquids with eco-friendly solutions, instead of Treatment Plants. I sourced out a potential product & worked closely with the supplier to develop specific & effective solutions. We now generate less scheduled waste & effluents whilst simultaneously experiencing reduced power consumption, breakdowns and labor requirement. This translated to improved equipment life, performance, reliability & durability, ingredients critical to Efficient & Economical operations.
