Vedant Sanjit Potdar

Led a data-driven risk assessment (FMEA) across 100+ components of a 1500 L production system, prioritizing failure modes to hit a 28-day deployment deadline with zero quality escapes Built an Excel-based analytical model consolidating data from 100+ components, giving engineering and quality leads a single source of truth for go/no-go decisions Diagnosed process inefficiencies through root-cause inspection, driving a 20% gain in operational efficiency Partnered with cross-functional quality and engineering stakeholders to validate data and streamline compliance reporting

Designed and led implementation of a conveyor subsystem redesign, delivering an 18% efficiency gain and reducing manual labor dependency. Built and validated a data-backed design solution in Solid Works, ensuring 100% structural accuracy against automation standards. Optimized automation parameters through iterative testing, cutting cycle time 12% and improving process consistency. Conducted cost-benefit and ROI analysis to guide capital investment decisions, keeping the project within fiscal targets.

Led a structured root-cause analysis (Fishbone) on recurring equipment failures, improving MTTR by 20%. Applied 8 D methodology to design containment, correction, and prevention plans, reducing recurring downtime incidents.
