The purpose of this position is to translate deployed strategy, business objectives, requirements from customers,
stakeholders as well as standards and regulatory requirements into technical inputs to establish value stream capable of fulfilling needs of customer and stake holder expectations, conforming to standards & guidelines as well as continuously enhancing value stream efficiency & effectiveness and achieve operational excellence.
Technical Capacity Management : Plan, implement & continually develop a manufacturing value addition flow with resources e.g. space, MAE, testing, handling, etc., capable of consistently manufacturing, measuring, monitoring, validating and delivering products that meets all engineering, regulatory & requirements of the customer.
Value Stream Planning : Monitor internal & external requirements (e.g. BU, Plant, VS, BP, customer), true north and VS vision, collaborate with Cross Functional stake holders to identify, monitor & drive projects to lead Value stream towards a future state, progressively raise efficiency & achieve operational excellence.
Control Of Production Processes : Establish, document & develop the release of processes (e.g. CpK study, PPAP, etc), controls to manage processes (e.g. control plans, work instructions, SPC, etc), methods to track & monitor customer requirements, reaction to non-conforming parts (e.g. reaction plan) to ensure defect free products.
Budget Planning & Cost Management : Estimate & propose budgets for the upcoming planning periods
required to run operations, fulfil demands and execute development projects e.g., personnel, tooling, services, MAE, Project costs, etc. Track & adapt expenditure over respective periods to adhere to budget and achieve economic success
Plan, implement & continually develop a manufacturing value addition flow with resources e.g. space, MAE, testing, handling, etc., capable of consistently manufacturing, measuring, monitoring, validating and delivering products that meets all engineering, regulatory & requirements of the customer.
Risk Analysis & Contingency Planning : Identify & evaluate risks to sustaining intended results e.g.
delivery to customer, assure zero defect products, product recalls, breakdown of single dependent machine, etc., plan, document, implement & test preventive and reactive measures to mitigate business & customer impact
Problem Solving & Corrective Actions : Compile & assess deviations to defined standards in
manufacturing e.g. infrastructure, processes, quality complaints, FPY, defect cost, safety incident, etc. Identify root causes, ideate, plan & implement necessary measures to fix issues to limit impact to the customer and business results
MAE, Tooling & Consumable Planning : Prepare technical inquiry, scout market for suppliers of desired
technology, float inquiry & receive techno-commercial offers, conduct technical discussions & narrow down potential vendors. Initiate internal process to place purchase requests to procure required items & manage regular availability.
Coaching & Knowledge Management : Initiate, organize & lead engagement initiatives to coach, motivate & support team in knowledge sharing, pool collective knowledge for problem-solving, understanding & adoption of
new standards, methods & technology etc, to enhance people potential, encourage innovation & organizational development.
Change Initiatives & Management : Evaluate manufacturing setup for efficiency, technical constraints & ideas from associates, develop scenarios, plan (e.g. ECR process) & implement concepts (e.g. I4.0) & measures aimed at resolving issues, upgrading setup with benchmark concepts to improve efficiency & effectiveness of operations
Project Management : Analyse new business requirements (e.g. product relocation, product inquiry, innovation project, etc), evaluate business case, develop project charter and project management plan,coordinate, drive and implement project plan in collaboration with cross functional teams to enable business growth
Management Reporting : Compile, Organize and represent manufacturing performance data and insights to lead systematic understanding of influences and aspects in Value stream as well as support different levels of hierarchy in taking well-informed and strategic calls to support value stream goals
