Capacity planning _ trims & polymer

Responsibilities & Key Deliverables

Build a resilient supply chain for the Automotive Division through Long term Capacity planning and mapping:

• Capacity assessment & planning for existing supply chain parts based on 3 years LTP-Action Planning for Capacity Shortfall mitigation for TRIMS & Polymer Domain-Enabling creation of required infrastructure at supplier end to meet demand through partnering with SSU/CDMM/PD/SCM monitoring at suppliers end -Ensure kick-off part development with close monitoring till SOP
• SSU / SCM / SQE vulnerable supplier alternatives
• New projects C/O parts capacity mapping (across Platforms cross commodities)

Drive Short term Capacity Planning & supply chain challenges mitigation:

• Identification of short-term challenges with Supply chain
• Capacity enhancement on current parts
• Quality related supplies issues (alternate sourcing / FTG corrections with current suppliers)
• Ensure kick-off part development with close monitoring till SOP

Ensure Close Monitoring of high risk projects requiring sharp ramp up to meet business demands. Drive capacity augmentation, part availability with supply chain & SSU to ensure ramp-up for TRIMS & Polymer Domain. De-risking supply chain - Identification of risk in supply chain, working along with SSU to identify alternate sources, Creating Capex budgets in line with the same, enabling VOBs & kick off capacity creation for TRIMS & Polymer Domain. Digitization - Drive simplicity & efficiency through Digital Capacity Planning and monitoring (Implementation Capacity Planning tool) - TRIMS & Polymer Domain
