Background

About Chris Nelson

As an Industrial Operations General Manager with extensive success planning and overseeing maintenance sites, turnarounds, and capital improvement projects valued at over $850 million annually, I could greatly benefit your company in various positions. With over 25 years of experience, I am adept at coordinating cross-functional specialists, both union and non-union, to facilitate smooth uninterrupted progress toward goals. In conducting cost analyses and writing strategic business plans, I have consistently achieved the optimum balance of market competitiveness while preserving the profit margin. Negotiating terms with clients, I have provided various contract options, defining timelines and deliverables of all parties to ensure smooth contract administration with no ambiguity. The result has been clear communication of responsibilities leading to complete fulfillment of obligations for a satisfied customer and a profitable contract. As you will note from my résumé, I have had opportunities to analyze and revamp operations to cut costs, develop solid safety cultures, increase productivity, and achieve profitability for troubled projects using KPI structured processes. Putting into place effective leaders, sound policies, real-time project tracking and costing software, and performance measurement controls to ensure accountability has resulted in delivery of quality workmanship on time and under budget. This efficiency and customer service has led to strong client relationships, resulting in the extension of maintenance contracts and award of additional projects.
