“Identifying areas for improvement in the Small Arms Weapons Division, Ryan facilitated standard operating procedure updates, workplace safety training, incident prevention and facility repairs. Through his leadership, the division was able to visualize the expectation of safety and apply the concepts learned on a continual basis.
