Selected Achievements
I diagnosed production pace was too slow, caused by delays in construction and c
ausing loss of revenue. I analyzed the schedule and with strategic planning and
problem solving skills, succeeded in accelerating production. Impact: The job ca
me in $660,000 under budget and 6 months ahead of schedule.
Starting a remodeling business was my goal in life. Working hard to build a repu
tation for myself, I achieved starting and operating a successful remodeling bus
iness for more than 13 years.
By gaining the respect and confidence of the subcontractors I was able to accele
rate the production schedule, alleviating delays in construction and loss of rev
enue. I increased production to completing a building a week. Impact: Successful
ly completed the project ahead of schedule.
Wind had caused damage to site fencing and was going to cost the company $20,000
in repairs. I diagnosed the problem and persuaded the subcontractor that the in
stallation was done incorrectly. Impact: Ultimately succeeded in saving the comp
any $20,000 in lost revenue.
A city code violation had been committed by the sales team. The city was going t
o make the company tear the house down at a cost of $75,000 to rebuild. I persu
aded the city to allow us to continue building with some design changes I implem
ented. Impact: We were able to continue building the house with no construction
delays, or loss of revenue for a savings of $75,000.
Succeeded in getting one of my kitchen remodels shown in a feature column of the
local newspaper. Impact: Public recognition and visibility of my work.
Although only with the company a short time and seeing potential advancement wit
h a new company, my achievements proved to the owner that I was capable of handl
ing more responsibility. Impact: I was promoted from Assistant to Lead Superinte
ndent within 3 months of being hired.
