Cost Savings
John's towering strength is mining for money! Combining knowledge of materials and processes with strong analytical skills and has led to savings for both suppliers and end users. Strategies employed include designing for process efficiency (dimensions, structures, graphics) to improve supplier performance, using target economics, eliminating waste, value engineering, supply chain strategies, sourcing strategies to optimize volume impacts and take advantage of low cost producers, application of mutual incentives, and pricing mechanisms.
Some examples include:
+ Identifying the key levers to lower logistics cost 50% on a thermal shipping application ($400,000)
+ Leveraging supplier capabilities to convert a jar to a stand up pouch saving 35% ($500,000)
+ Developing alternate sourcing stategies (dispensers, packaging, service providers) for non dairy creamer category improving margins 15%
+ Commercializing extended gamut printing platform eliminating 30% of press set ups driving huge savings
+ Lowering pre-press costs 30% while improving cycle time 50%
+ Consolidating coated paper packaging category to low cost producer saving 15% and improving end user plant performance
