About JM Test Systems
JM Test Systems provides calibration, test and measurement equipment, and technical services across multiple business segments and service locations. We help customers in industrial, energy, manufacturing, and other demanding environments keep critical instruments accurate, compliant, and ready to perform.
Job Summary — The Opportunity
Some customer equipment needs calibration or repair from the original manufacturer or a specialized vendor, and customers still count on us to get it done right and on time. As our To-Factory Specialist, you'll own that process from start to finish.
In this role, you will manage outsourced calibration and repair services, from getting customer approval and vendor quotes to creating purchase orders, tracking shipments, and verifying equipment and paperwork when it comes back. You'll be the central point of coordination between customers, vendors, and our internal teams, keeping everyone informed and every job moving.
You'll thrive here if you're highly organized, follow through on every detail, and can juggle multiple priorities with urgency and accuracy.
Key Responsibilities & Outcomes
· Coordinate outsourced service. Review work orders to determine outsourcing needs, request quotes, pricing, and RMAs from vendors, provide estimates to customers, and secure approvals.
· Manage purchasing and shipping. Create and manage purchase orders in Sage, coordinate shipments to vendors, and follow up on expected return dates.
· Verify quality on return. Check incoming equipment and documentation for accuracy, confirm calibration certificates meet quality standards, process receipts, and route equipment back to the lab.
· Keep everyone informed. Serve as the key liaison between customers, vendors, and internal teams, providing timely updates on status, delays, and approvals.
· Maintain accurate records. Track all updates in CalMapp and keep clear, organized records of outsourced work and communications.
· Manage vendors and measure results. Track vendor performance and turnaround-time KPIs, research new vendors when needed, and help improve processes and workflows.
