3.  What does being a "Production Control Supervisor" entail?
Our department creates all paperwork needed to produce the product for orders. We also create purchase requisitions for materials needed to fulfill them. Once the orders are released to the shop, we follow up on them to assure we will be delivering on time. We also are the main contact for questions from Sales on orders.

I would say the biggest challenge of my job is meeting the requirements of emergency requests quickly and effectively each and every time.

5.  Most rewarding thing about it?
The ability to satisfy a customer's needs when they look to us in an emergency. We do whatever we can to help them out of tough situations. Even better is when their gratitude is passed on to us after they receive their goods.

The people I work with and the variety of projects or activities I get involved in.

7.  Tell me about a great customer experience you've had recently.
Coordinating a new order where the customer was taken from a competitor. We supplied numerous line items of special product in a short time frame to keep them going. Showing our flexibility and desire for customer satisfaction has been challenging and rewarding. 

8.  What are you doing in your free time?
During the school year we follow my son's soccer games. He is a senior this year so I will be looking for something new. My husband and I like to go to the lake and take in a few car shows in the summer. He is restoring a 1968 Chevy pickup truck.
