I'm Tony Howard, former Global mould shop leader & mould procurement leader at O-I Glass Inc.

I have over 32 years leadership experience and knowledge working directly in all departments involved in the ‘mould’ commodity of glass container manufacturing.

Overview

In all glass container plants, the mould shop are known to be a labor-intensive, high cost department that have to support the needs of Forming and Quality departments to ensure the plant is successful and profitable.

What I can offer your company, backed with my extensive experience and knowledge, from shop floor to corporate leadership. Is to increase the plant glass quality through mould shop training and critical defect prevention packages. I can help you to lower your total cost of ownership (TCO), develop measurable KPI’s on mould shop duties and rules. I can help you identify peoples training needs & close the gaps needed.

Furthermore, Using my experience I can advise and guide you in developing effective mould procurement sourcing strategies and supplier development programs to reduce annual mould spend and consumption.

By using my experience, I can also advise you on how to improve and reduce (or fast track) your New Product Development (NPD) speed to market of new glass containers, from concept design to bulk production lead times.
