Built a tool to identify and follow critical path parts required to deliver engines to the final customers. This tool fed itself from SAP, cleaned the data and analysed it to find which parts were responsible for delays and facilitate the tracking of these parts per engine on a daily basis.
VBA Developer (for PWC)

CDI Professional Services

(Public Company; 10,001 or more employees; CDI; Staffing and Recruiting industry)

February 2006 — June 2006 (5 months)

Maintained, documented and developed new features for the departmental Excel custom toolbar; features such as, template formula rows which get replicated on a full region. This option reduces human error and allows for someone to easily reuse a spreadsheet. It also allows one to create complex workbooks and easily maintain it. Other features added were mostly related to automated report generation. The goal of these tools was to once again reduce the amount of repetitive tasks and allow the employee to concentrate on the problem at hand and not on how to execute a certain task in Excel.

From the documentation, I built a course plan, and gave a course to all of the department employees. This course had as a goal to inform and interest the most advanced Excel users. These would hopefully become spokesmen and help propagate the tools to the other employees in a goal to create a new work standard. I gave the course twice in Montreal, was then flown to Toronto to give 2 more times.

This tool ensures that before a full budget summary could be produced; all the managers had produced the required information.
