Key Responsibilities

Capacity & Supply Planning

  • Build and maintain the capacity vs. demand view by plant and product line
  • Consolidate backlog, pipeline, and capacity inputs for the monthly SIOP cycle
  • Flag gaps and risks early, and bring options to the Senior Manager for decision
  • Track plan vs. actuals and schedule attainment; follow up on root causes

Operations Integration

  • Translate order schedules into plant-level loading, shifts, and line capacity
  • Partner with plant teams on sequencing, bottlenecks, and late orders

Engineering Integration

  • Work with engineering on design release timing, BOM readiness, and change impacts to schedule
  • Incorporate engineering release dates into the capacity plan

Supply Chain Integration

  • Align with procurement on long-lead components against the build schedule
  • Monitor material risk to scheduled ship dates

Analytics

  • Maintain the SIOP data model and monthly refresh

  • APICS/ASCM certification preferred


Success Measures

  • SIOP delivered on time with an agreed supply plan
  • Schedule attainment vs. plan
  • Capacity and revenue forecast accuracy
  • Fewer late orders caused by material or engineering gaps
  • Faster monthly refresh through automation
