Kimberly-Clark
In the summer of 1999 I had an internship with
Kimberly-Clark in LaGrange, Georgia. At KC I was given a great project to work
on.
• Developed a new Bill of Materials matrix.
• Identified discrepancies in raw material consumption figures. Worked
with process engineers, financial analysts, and production planners to locate
the source of problems.
• Used Excel to develop a new process for making weekly production forecasts
for a rewinding machine. Reduced the original process from three hours to fifteen
minutes.
• Discovered 160 rolls of old inventory. Developed and implemented a company-wide
process for re-work. Inventory was reduced to 50 rolls in 30 days.
I also met some great friends through work and that made the
summer speed by.
