Analyze customer demand versus forecast and production capacity to ensure realistic and executable plans. Act as primary point of contact for assigned customers to ensure timely response to requests, delivery commitments, and order status updates. Monitor on‐time delivery performance (crd vs promise date vs shipment date) and drive corrective actions when required. Manage and reduce past due orders through recovery plans in coordination with operations, procurement, and cross‐functional teams. Execute rescheduling decisions based on material constraints, purchased components, and capacity limitations. Support engineering change implementation (ecn/eco), including impact analysis and excess/obsolete risk mitigation. Support npi launches and ensure planning readiness for new product introductions and ramp‐ups. Maintain sap s/4hana master data accuracy, including lead times, safety stock, planning parameters, and mrp settings. Utilize sap s/4hana planning, purchasing, and capacity modules to support supply execution.
