Six Sigma + automation · Greater Harrisburg, PA
Complex work, turned into a process anyone on your team can run.
Auditing. Reporting. Reconciling numbers from systems that disagree with each other. The jobs that work today because one tenured person knows where to look and what to ignore.
I rebuild those jobs as offline browser tools that surface the right number at the moment the decision gets made, and that state the reasoning behind every step. The result is a process with the variability taken out, and a new hire who learns the logic by doing the work instead of shadowing someone for a month.

Four rules every tool follows
These are not preferences. They are what makes the difference between a tool that sticks and a spreadsheet that gets abandoned in a quarter.
The tool is the documentation
Every step states the rule it applies and why. Someone new learns the reasoning while doing the work, not from a binder nobody opens.
Data arrives in context
The number you need appears where the decision happens. No hunting across four systems, no tab-switching, no holding figures in your head.
Variability goes first
Six Sigma before automation. Measure the process, find where it varies, fix that. Automating a loose process just produces errors faster.
What I help with
Four areas. Each names the experience or credential it rests on, so you can judge for yourself rather than take my word for it.
Process automation and internal tooling
The demo above is a stripped-down version of this work. I take a task that needs judgement, cross-referencing and a good memory, and build a tool that applies the rules consistently and shows only what needs a human.
Typical candidates: invoice and shipment reconciliation, audit preparation, reporting that pulls from several systems, data cleanup before it reaches a report, quoting and configuration checks.
The tools are plain HTML and run offline in a browser. No platform to license, no seat count, no vendor to migrate away from later. You own the file.
Basis: Prior deployments in the IT channel. Six Sigma Black Belt. Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate.Ramp time and cross-training
Most onboarding problems are really process problems. If a job needs tribal knowledge, every new hire costs weeks of someone else's time and the error rate stays high until they absorb it.
When the logic lives in the tool rather than in a person, training becomes showing someone a sequence. They build the judgement by using it, and the business stops being exposed when one person leaves.

Before automating anything, it is worth knowing what the process actually is. I map how work really moves, measure where it varies, and separate the steps that add something from the steps that are there because they always have been.
That assessment also looks forward: which reports nobody can currently produce, which numbers the business is deciding without, and what would have to change to get them.
Basis: Six Sigma Black Belt, Management and Strategy Institute. Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate.IT procurement and vendor navigation
Reading quotes, comparing what is actually being proposed, and sizing infrastructure and collaboration tooling against what your business needs rather than what fits the vendor's quarter.
I have spent over a decade on the vendor and channel side of these conversations, so I know how the pricing and the pitch are assembled before they reach you.

What this approach is built to change. Which of these matter, and by how much, depends on your process and your data, so they are targets to measure rather than promises.
Less time per cycle
Rules applied at once instead of line by line, and only the exceptions put in front of a person.
Fewer errors
The same checks run the same way every time, rather than depending on attention at the end of a long task.
Shorter ramp time
Training becomes a walkthrough of a sequence. The reasoning is in the tool, so a new starter builds judgement by using it.
No single point of failure
When the method lives in the tool rather than one person's memory, holidays and departures stop being operational events.
Data stays in-house
No cloud service and no third party in the path, so there is nothing new to review with your insurer or your own customers.
Reporting you did not have
Once the data is reconciled consistently, numbers the business was deciding without become available as a by-product.
Less context switching
One screen instead of four systems and a spreadsheet, so the work stops costing attention it does not need to.
No new dependency
Plain files you keep. No licence, no seat count, no platform to migrate off later.
8 weeksPrior deployment
From a prior deployment: a daily task, three hours to under ten minutes
A recurring reconciliation ran almost entirely by hand: data pulled from several systems, cleaned in spreadsheets, cross-referenced by eye. Working with the stakeholders involved, I mapped what the process was actually doing, then built offline HTML tools that brought the sources together, applied the cleanup rules consistently, and presented the exceptions with the reasoning attached.
The daily task came down to under ten minutes, and training someone into it became a walkthrough rather than a transfer of accumulated context. Further detail is available on request.

How an engagement runs
Four steps. Nothing starts until the scope and the fee are in writing.
-
Discovery call
A conversation about the task that keeps going wrong, or the person everything depends on. No charge, and no obligation on either side.
-
Process map and written scope
I document what the process currently does and where it varies, then propose deliverables, a timeline, a fee, who owns what is built, and what sits outside the scope.
-
Deposit and build
Work begins once the scope is signed and the deposit is received. Cancellation terms are in the refund policy.
-
Handover and validation
We run the tool against known cases together, so you can see the rules hold. You keep the files and the documentation, and your team runs it without me.
Contact
Email is the only way to reach me, and that is deliberate: this site runs no contact form, so nothing you send passes through a third party on the way to my inbox.

Useful things to include in a first message: what the business does, roughly how many people, and the task that prompted you to get in touch. If you can say roughly how long that task takes today, better still.
