What I run

Four disciplines, one operating system.

Each grew out of solving the same problem from a different angle: how do you make quality predictable at scale?

01 / ISO SYSTEMS

ISO 9001 · 14001 · 45001

Design, implementation, internal auditing and certification-readiness for QMS, EMS and OH&S systems.

02 / TPM & LEAN

TPM Quality Maintenance

Pillar leadership, defect-prevention systems, RCA/CAPA discipline and Lean waste reduction on the floor.

03 / CERAMICS

Ceramic & porcelain tile tech

Glaze development, process capability, product compliance (SLS, CE Mark, Green Label) and NPD.

04 / SYSTEMS

Dashboards & IIoT

KPI dashboards, quality data systems, and IIoT-enabled process control for operational visibility.

Currently building

Operational dashboards that make quality visible, not just reportable.

Beyond ISO documentation, I design real-time KPI dashboards and IIoT-based monitoring systems — turning scattered inspection sheets into a single live view of defect rates, process capability, and audit readiness that management can actually act on.
