Paul Whalen to Accelerate Systems Delivery21/07/2008 |
| Schilling Robotics has appointed Paul A. Whalen as senior vice president of operations. The company is currently experiencing 40% revenue growth, although even with surging orders, the company aims to cut 15% from its start-to-finish manufacturing cycle. |

Philip F. Otto, Schilling's president and CEO, commented that Whalen's long experience at Toyota's first U.S. manufacturing facility (in Long Beach, CA, USA) provided him with the skills and practical background necessary to smoothly drive the growth of Schilling's complex manufacturing systems. His service at American Racing Equipment, Inc. and Pentair Pool and Spa, where he led successful turnaround efforts in manufacturing operations, also prepared Whalen to tackle diverse scenarios in inventory management, production streamlining, quality assurance, and product upgrade. Whalen holds a B.A. degree in economics from the University of California, Irvine and an M.B.A from the University of Southern California.
Whalen said about his new assignment that his challenge, much in the spirit of the Toyota Way, will be continuous improvement. We will be improving Schilling's processes every day not just to deliver ‘more' but to deliver ‘better'. "In this process, Schilling's talented and dedicated workforce will be our biggest asset."
