Florence · United States
Senior Logistics Operations Manager
Jan 2021 - now
- As workstream lead, reconciled SAP shipment records with warehouse scans to trace logistics exceptions across the supply chain; separated late carrier events from missing inventory movements before assigning corrective actions.
- With responsibility for the review standard, used root-cause analysis for continuous improvement of dock-to-stock time, comparing arrival, receipt, and put-away timestamps; changed the receiving handoff where the longest controllable delay occurred.
- Reconciled warehouse scans with carrier manifests, investigated short shipments by handoff point, and checked the next dispatch cycle for the same exception pattern.
- Built a warehouse management SOP using scan-event data analysis, mapped the process flow and assigned each exception to an owner in a RACI chart before testing the shift handoff.
- Owned a warehouse exception review using scan timestamps, reducing missed dispatch cutoffs from 11 to 3 in the next four-week sample.
- Designed a supply-chain handoff check with safety staff, resolving conflicting pedestrian and pallet routes before the revised warehouse layout was approved.

- Redesigned pick paths for 3 high-volume zones using travel-time observations; aligned review standards and decision owners across the participating teams. Working with partner teams, kept the lower-effort process in place after handoff.
- Reconciled order quantities, receipt records and supplier commitments, flagged a lead-time change before the planned delivery, and documented the agreed recovery schedule.
- Reviewed a short shipment against the purchase order, packing list and receipt record. Confirmed the physical quantity before changing system stock and coordinated the remaining delivery without creating a duplicate order.
