About Terry H. Thomas

If your market demands continuous product innovation, you\'ll be needing to make regular changes to your manufacturing capabilities. Integrating new processes into your existing manufacturing lines is not easy, but I can help. I have a Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering and more than 20 years of Engineering experience for both consumer and technical product manufacturing. I\'m experienced with methods of process development for GMP manufacturing environments and integration work processes for equipment used in the manufacture of assembled products, and I have experience leading teams and overseeing installation and qualification of new manufacturing processes. Software experience includes Various MES systems, RSLogix, RSView, LabVIEW, Solidworks, Solid Edge, ANSYS, HyperWorks, Abaqus, JMP, Qlikview, Oracle, SAP, SQL, html, Java, C, and VBScript. I also have proven public speaking and event coordination skills which I\'ve used to make lasting changes to company culture.
