- Track purchase order commitments and inbound material status to assess manufacturing readiness against the published production schedule.
- Create and manage a high volume of purchase requisitions to ensure material is on order and aligned with production demand.
- Generate schedule and manage manufacturing work orders across the work order lifecycle. Monitor aging work orders and coordinate with the Production Scheduler when priorities shift due to material availability or capacity changes.
- Maintain accuracy and completeness in all transactional ERP entries to support downstream traceability and reporting.
- Coordinate with the Production Scheduler and Warehouse on product prestaging picking and kitting requirements to support on-time production starts.
- Maintain serialized parts and material traceability within the ERP system to meet Quality Management System (QMS) defense and HazMat standards.
- Support inventory accuracy by flagging discrepancies and participating in cycle count and reconciliation processes.
- Ensure item master data lead times and reorder points relevant to your program are accurate and up to date within the ERP/MRP system.
- Troubleshoot day-to-day MRP-related issues and partner with senior planners on system improvements and workflow refinements.
