- Assess material availability and identify potential shortages, bottlenecks, and load imbalances.
- Provide data-driven insights to SIOP processes and supply chain leadership.
Systems
- Maintain the Master Production Schedule in ERP (SAP preferred) and ensure planning parameters and master data support accurate scheduling.
- Use planning and scenario tools (SAP, IBP, or equivalent) to model alternate scenarios and evaluate feasibility.
- Drive system accuracy through participation in UAT, validation activities, and process changes impacting scheduling.
- Monitor and report key scheduling and service metrics using system-generated data.
Collaboration
- Serve as the liaison between global Supply Planners and plant operations by translating monthly supply plans into weekly production commitments.
- Partner with Customer Service and Product Management to align on customer priorities and delivery commitments.
- Influence and guide Finite Planners and Shop Floor Schedulers to ensure alignment with the MPS.
- Work closely with Procurement, Operations, Engineering, and Quality to resolve conflicts and maintain execution stability.
Communication
- Confirm and communicate customer order dates based on the MPS.
- Provide clear, timely updates on risks, constraints, and schedule changes to cross-functional stakeholders.
- Represent plant scheduling capability and constraint status in SIOP and leadership forums.
- Publish schedule adherence and KPI dashboards to ensure visibility of performance and risks.
Process Improvement
- Lead continuous improvement initiatives focused on schedule accuracy, lead time performance, material flow, and service levels.
- Standardize planning processes and scheduling routines across sites where applicable.
- Develop and refine KPIs and reporting to drive accountability and discipline.
- Identify and eliminate root causes of schedule instability
