Machinery Management Solutions, Inc
I have more than 40 years experience developing, managing, training and performing preventive, predictive and corrective maintenance in both military and manufacturing environments. I formed the predecessor to Machinery Management Solutions, Inc. in 1995. Machinery Management Solutions, Inc. provides machinery condition monitoring services and mentoring, and project management, technical quality and industrial reliability and maintenance related training to industry.
In a past position, I have been responsible for operating the maintenance management systems for 150 client companies, including Ford, General Motors, Rubbermaid, Armco Metals and Weirton Steel. These systems included preventive, predictive and corrective maintenance. I had the opportunity to work with both middle and senior management in many companies and to help them in improving their maintenance functions.
I have done assessments of maintenance as part of World Class Maintenance benchmarking and implementation. I performed both formal and informal evaluations in steel mills, injection-molding plants, printing plants, and other process and discrete manufacturing plants.
In 1992, I completed 28 years of naval service in engineering operation and maintenance, including extensive experience in shipyards overhauling naval ships.
My academic background includes graduate degrees in Ocean Engineering, Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. I received my BS degree from Purdue University where I majored in physics. I have been a Navy Certified Boiler Inspector and have completed many specialized technical courses.
