Traci Elliott

I am a supply chain professional with expertise in leading teams for high-volume, SKU-rich organizations. I rely on multi-team collaboration, cross-functional communication, and consensus-building skills to succeed. My APICS CSCP certification and experience with ISO 9001, Six Sigma, and lean manufacturing provide a strong foundation for developing formal operational procedures and mentoring teams to achieve their goals.

• Extensive experience in demand planning, supply planning, and manufacturing processes helped develop supplier consignment and vendor-managed inventory programs to cut lead times and reduce inventory.
• Implementing a planning software package led to more efficient factory capacity use, more accurate planning decisions, increased inventory accuracy, and reduced headcount, all while supporting a rising SKU count.
• Collaborating with manufacturing partners to convert company-owned factories to lean and cellular manufacturing processes helped improve efficiency, shorten lead times, and reduce costs.
