  • Oklahoma City, OK (1888PressRelease) May 08, 2015 - Mark A. Schwieso, Program Manager for AAR, has been selected as a Professional of the Year Member of the National Association of Distinguished Professionals.

    Mark A. Schwieso began his journey in logistics and material management, as well as learning the importance of managing the supply chain while serving in the military. He spent six years in the M60A-1 tank, which included a two-year assignment as a Marine Integrated Maintenance Management Systems (or MIMMS) Clerk. After his honorable discharge from the Marines, he obtained his undergraduate degree from Missouri State University. He then continued his service by living the civilian life in the US Air Force as a logistics management specialist for eight years.

    After serving a two-year stint in the oil and gas industry, Mr. Schwieso returned to the aerospace industry and is now the program manager over two maintenance, repair, and overhaul (or MRO) supply chains for AAR. He is responsible for a $27 million P&L, including the gross margin, gross margin percentage, and inventory turns. He manages the purchasing department, which manages the money and inventory, and drives revenue generation, cost reduction, and increasing fill rates. He also keeps a constant pulse on the inventory value of each location and applies supply chain management principles to establish and obtain his goals.

    "Throughout my career, I have had the ability to see how organizations make and spend money," Mr. Schwieso said. "Focusing on these areas, I have been able to develop better processes to reduce cost, while increasing support and efficiencies, as well as identifying opportunities to garner additional revenue."

    Mr. Schwieso lives by the USMC's mentality of 'do or die' and 'adapt, overcome, improvise' in his work life, therefore enabling himself to always succeed. With plans to continue in his personal growth and professional leadership, he hopes to mature into a great leader and take on new and challenging roles in the future.

    Holding a BS with Honors in International Business from Missouri State University and an MBA from Mid-American Christian University with a 4.0 GPA. Mr. Schweiso is a certified Project Management Professional through the Project Management Institute and is a certified Lean/Six Sigma Green Belt through AAR.
