About Robert Travis
I have begun pursuing my MBA from the Gies College of Business at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign focusing on Data Analystics and Global Business. My education foundation came from graduating from The Pennsylvania State University with a B.S. in Industrial Engineering with a focus in manufacturing processes. I have most recently worked at Metso Outotec as the Director of Procurement for Crushing Products in Services BA and Bronze Castings globally. In this position I leveraged my experience, technical competence, and interpersonal skills to develop, promote, and implement organizational structure, practices, and strategies. Key focus was on new supplier development, especially castings & forgings, and key supplier relationship management, along with contract definition and governance. I have previous experience with light and heavy fabrication, gears, machining, fluid connectors and systems, along with miscellaneous assembly and electrical components.
