1966 OBJECTIVES
Capacity exists to meet sales demands* No sales outages due to lack of capacity.
Plans and present appropriation request for BzCl expansion and quality improvement at Delaware River. By May 1966.
Evaluate batch vs. continous DOP plant for Delaware River. Use in MAPP program to determine worth. If justified prepare project.
Evaluate place and process to expand TSA. Get project approval by 8-1.
Have plans formulated for Ethacol/Guaiacol/Ethavan expansions. Get projects approved this year.
Resolve phosphate ester expansion - - go or no go. Initiate MAPP program for phosphate esters. 1st quarter target.

Push acceptance of new d/T program and use as base for 1967 standards. By September 1966.
Monitor use of cost control centers at JFQ. Decide whether to expand. By September 1966.
Use performance variance analysis to improve either performance or 1967 standards. Continuing.
Cost Improvement programs are active and receive
emphasis.

General 1966 Actions:
3Application of TSD and plant process research to improvement is emphasized.
Coordinate integration of TSD and PPR programs. Use process reviews and PIP reviews to ascertain degree of integration. By year-end. Request, review and approve preparation of long range department improvement plans for TSD and PPR groups at Queeny, Everett and Delaware River. June target.
Harmonious and productive.
Attempt to spend less time with Product Directors and still maintain excellent working relationships. Make more frequent visits to Everett and Delaware River - TSD Departments are growing and need more guidance. Impose manufacturing influence earlier in product development and pricing.
Get more knowledgeable in field of air and stream pollution. Review plant programs in this area. Recommend staffing and programs to cope adequately with problems. By year-end.
