Industrial Engineer · 1 year
About this CDR
Three Career Episodes from a junior industrial engineer: analysing bottlenecks and line imbalances on a cosmetics packaging line, an academic project improving production planning software for an industrial couplings company, and a methods and time study to standardise processes and set plant capacity at a food manufacturer. This CDR was assessed and approved by Engineers Australia under the Professional Engineer (PE) competency standard.

Bottleneck and Line Balancing Analysis in a Cosmetics Plant
Analysed bottlenecks and line imbalances on cosmetic packaging lines. Drew precedence diagrams, calculated cycle times and found operators were used only 67% of the time, studied units per hour against man-hours in Minitab and grouped products into subgroups to speed up customer quotes.
Production Planning Tool for an Industrial Couplings Maker (Academic Project)
University project to improve the software used to plan and schedule production at an industrial couplings company. Applied demand forecasting, Pareto analysis, SMED and 5S, and studied machine capacity to give the company a more reliable production plan.
Production Capacity Study at a Food Manufacturer
As Methods and Time Engineer at a gluten-free food manufacturer, mapped the process flow, set standard times, balanced the lines and calculated plant capacity so the company could commit to delivery times, working to GMP and HACCP requirements.
Summary Statement
Maps all 16 Professional Engineer competency elements (PE1.1 to PE3.6) to the exact paragraphs in the three Career Episodes where it is demonstrated, so the assessor can check each element quickly.
Continuing Professional Development (CPD)
A list of the professional development completed since graduation, such as courses, training, conferences, seminars and self-study, set out in the format Engineers Australia asks for.
