About Jim Eldridge

With extensive experience in machining and CNC manufacturing, I currently serve as Senior Manager at SIG SAUER, where I oversee daily operations for two CNC machine shops with a focus on efficiency, quality, and collaboration. Leveraging my Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt certification, I am committed to streamlining processes, reducing waste, and fostering a culture of continuous improvement. My mission aligns closely with SIG SAUER’s dedication to delivering high-quality products, as I aim to enhance productivity and empower teams to exceed operational goals. At SIG SAUER, I lead initiatives that implement Lean manufacturing principles, develop production plans, and ensure equipment reliability, while maintaining high-quality standards. My role involves cross-departmental coordination to optimize resource availability, daily accountability for production schedules, and hands-on leadership through Gemba walks. I work alongside diverse teams to drive meaningful results, improve throughput, and create a safe and efficient work environment.
