  • S&OP Supply Plan Development:
    • Develop the long-term S&OP Supply Plan (Build Plan) each month by collaborating with sales and production teams to balance demand with Supply Chain constraints.
    • Ensure month-end processes refresh, align, and update the Supply Plan.
  • Continuous Improvement:
    • Identify opportunities for process improvement and system development within the Master Scheduling Process and MRP system workflows.
    • Implement changes to enhance efficiency, reduce lead times, and improve overall supply chain and production performance.
  • Risk Management:
    • Proactively identify potential risks that may impact the master production schedule.
    • Develop and implement risk mitigation strategies to minimize disruptions and ensure on-time deliveries.
