Philips promotes higher value adding lighting solutions, which are more energy efficient. Although they have higher initial investments, the energy use is less. Customers are interested but the initial investments are too high. It was my responsibility to find a financial solution to overcome the investment barrier.

At request of Philips, I have worked at this company in the summer of 2004. During the holidays, stoppages aroused. I was able to identify and work on the critical points in the factory which caused the stoppages. Also in 2005, Philips requested my assistance.

Here, I was responsible for transferring Dutch product codes into universal codes.
