  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Standardize planning processes and scheduling routines across sites where applicable.
  • Develop and refine KPIs and reporting to drive accountability and discipline.
