• Work with quality, shipping, sales, and other cross-functional teams to improve lead times and strengthen on-time delivery results.
• Identify opportunities to improve production flow, planning accuracy, and overall process efficiency within the operation.
• Support compliance with safety, environmental, and quality management standards while carrying out daily planning activities.
• Use ERP and MRP tools, including Microsoft Dynamics 365 when applicable, to manage planning data and support system-related planning activities, including implementation efforts if needed.
