@harishkumarkaverappa
I lead customer experience, supply chain, and multi-site operations that improve delivery performance.
What I'm looking for
I've led operations, customer experience, and supply chain execution across Asian Lifts & Escalators, Bhanzu, Increff, and Furlenco. I coordinate factory schedules, installation SLAs, dispatch, workforce deployment, and escalations to keep customer commitments on track.
At Bhanzu, I raised US customer-experience CSAT above 93%, reduced missed calls from 26% to under 3% in 60 days, and lowered refunds from 3% to 1.2%. I also led a team of 16 specialists and cleared service backlogs to achieve under-24-hour ticket and escalation turnaround.
At Increff and Furlenco, I managed control-tower operations, 3PL partners, warehouse costs, demand planning, inventory fulfillment, and last-mile delivery. I've sustained 99.96% SLA compliance, built real-time supply-chain dashboards, and reduced transportation costs by 30% through fleet and route optimization.
