Supply Chain Planning Coordinator

Wildland Fire Apparatus Manufacturer

BME Fire Trucks is more than a fire truck manufacturer. We opened our doors over 30 years ago because of our respect and admiration for the fire industry. Each and every apparatus that leaves our facility is built with its end-use in mind. Our team prides itself in building something that protects and serves departments across the US and Canada. BME has manufactured apparatus for CAL FIRE, BLM, USFS, and municipal fire departments across the US and is the branded leader in wildland fire apparatus.

Being a family-owned company, we make sure that people are at the foundation of our business. From dealer to department, every person that walks through our doors will always be treated like family. We will always work with you and your department to ensure you have what you need for the frontlines. Every apparatus that leaves our facility is inspected for safety, durability, and performance. Our mission is to continue innovating fire apparatus so that it will perform no matter the severity of the fire season. That's the BME difference.

Job Description

BME Fire Trucks is seeking a Supply Chain Planning Coordinator to serve as the point of contact for BOM information, product usage, and parts availability between Sales, Engineering, Procurement, and Production. You will proactively verify engineering data against the Bill of Materials (BOM) before a truck enters production, ensuring our Procurement and Warehouse teams receive clean, executable signals.

As the Planning Coordinator within the Supply Chain, your responsibilities will include:

• Proactively compare incoming Shop Orders against BOMs to ensure strict alignment. Verify that components match engineering specifications prior to production to prevent downstream delays.
• Act as the filter for the Procurement team, consolidating demand signals.
• Serve as the communication bridge for all Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) and shop floor modifications, translating engineering directives into actionable supply chain data.
• Monitor trucks in varying phases to ensure critical orders are not delayed.
• Deliver projected timelines for kit pulling, ensuring kits are staged and verified before assembly needs. Investigate late-stage parts requests to determine root causes.
• Set and track timelines for when parts must move to external or internal Coatings (Powder Coat/Paint) and coordinate with vendors.

Requirements

What it takes to catch our eye:

• 3+ years of experience in supply chain, inventory planning, or project coordination within a heavy manufacturing environment.
• Ability to read, interpret, and audit complex BOMs, shop orders, and ECOs.
• Proven track record of navigating cross-departmental operations and resolving scheduling/data conflicts between Engineering, Procurement, and Production.
• Strong familiarity with ERP systems and inventory allocation processes.
• Excellent communication skills and a high level of professional maturity.
