Priyanka Prasad
@priyankaprasad1
I transform supply chain and operations performance across complex manufacturing, logistics, and financial services environments.
What I'm looking for
I've led operations and supply chain transformations at Proaction International, improving production planning for regulated aerospace programs by 57% and creating an execution playbook adopted by global teams.
I redesign operating systems, daily management routines, and KPI controls across manufacturing environments. My work has delivered $2.0M in savings for a multinational food manufacturer, reduced rail delivery delays by 3%, and reduced contamination risk while generating approximately $500K in savings.
Across Wells Fargo and Accenture, I've led teams improving payment-gateway operations, automating trade-settlement approvals, and strengthening critical-system resilience. I reduced payment failures by 4%, cut manual effort by 25%, and introduced Microsoft Bot Framework capabilities that reduced incident-management costs by approximately $3.3M.
I'm motivated by data-driven problem solving and hands-on execution, from SKU and machine-utilization analysis to process automation and cross-functional change. I bring experience coaching frontline leaders, building sustainable operating models, and improving throughput, cost, risk, and decision-making.
