Develop and maintain data-driven forecasting models that integrate historical trends, project inputs, and operational constraints. Identify and mitigate planning risks including demand variability, supplier lead times, and production capacity limitations through proactive scenario planning and cross-functional alignment. Lead the development and enhancement of internal planning tools and applications that improve forecast accuracy, material visibility, inventory management, and automation of planning processes.
