Create production schedules based on Bill of Materials (BOM) , Bill of Routing (BOR) , material availability, production capacity, and workforce availability. Release and communicate production orders and daily priorities to Manufacturing teams. Ensure production plans align with routing requirements, workstation capacities, and assembly lead times. Monitor production progress and adjust schedules to address changing priorities, shortages, delays, or production bottlenecks. Coordinate closely with Material Planning, Procurement, Warehouse, and Production teams to ensure production readiness. Track schedule adherence and production performance against customer delivery targets. Identify capacity constraints, material shortages, or routing conflicts that could impact customer deliveries and proactively escalate issues. Maintain accurate planning parameters, production routings, and scheduling data within ERP and planning systems. Support inventory optimization while ensuring uninterrupted production. Collaborate with Global Supply Chain teams to ensure alignment between customer requirements, supply plans, and manufacturing capacity.
