Description
Supply Chain Coordinator
We are looking for a talented Supply Chain Coordinator to join our team specializing in Supply Chain Planning for our Engine Business Segment in Rocky Mount, NC.
In this role, you will make an impact in the following ways:
Under general supervision, uses statistical analysis, collaborative cross-functional intelligence, and validated planning parameter settings to disaggregate the demand plan and determine the optimal inventory levels. Aligns the supply plan with the demand plan and drives stability in the supply chain.
Follows applicable standard work, process documentation, and quality procedures.
Performs quality checks on system planning parameters (min/max inventory level, re-order point, upper/lower tracking signals, segments, etc.) taking action to support Plan for Every Part (PFEP).
Performs supply and demand analysis, highlighting areas of concern for the next 12 months.
Runs planning parameter setting changes in the simulation environment to analyze the impact to KPIs,and provides executive and detailed report of results.
Communicates effectively within the assigned team and with all support teams.
Participates in improvement (quality, safety, process, material flow, etc.) projects.
Enters approved forecast adjustments at the detail level to align with the aggregate demand plan.
Takes ownership and accountability for the disaggregate demand plan, supply plan, and inventory plan that supports end Customer needs.
To be successful in this role you will need the following:
Communicates effectively - Developing and delivering multi-mode communications that convey a clear understanding of the unique needs of different audiences.
Drives results - Consistently achieving results, even under tough circumstances.
Global perspective - Taking a broad view when approaching issues, using a global lens.
Manages complexity - Making sense of complex, high quantity, and sometimes contradictory information to effectively solve problems.
Optimizes work processes - Knowing the most effective and efficient processes to get things done, with a focus on continuous improvement.
Inventory Management and Optimization - Uses analytics and algorithms to determine the optimal level of inventory investment across the end-to-end supply chain within specific constraints (warehouse space, customer delivery, etc.); provides guidance and expertise on planning parameter refinement; develops inventory strategies to support Cummins' strategy and not just a business unit strategy.
Master Supply Planning and Demand Disaggregation - Uses statistical analysis and collaborates with other disciplines to provide a long-term view of customers demand and ensures the supply plan is aligned with the demand plan; balances supply and demand in a manner that achieves the financial and service objectives, while stabilizing the supply chain and optimizing the supply chain tensions.
Materials KPI Management - Operates in relation to recent or historical outputs as compared to expectations of the organization to determine next steps to drive improvement; assesses gaps to the supply chain performance against the expectation of achieving target deliverables; interprets KPIs to understand end-customer impact; strategically balances trade-offs to influence one KPI while minimizing the impact to others.
Materials Master Data Management - Determines the source of master data (bill-of-material, disposition code, planner code, etc.) ensuring changes are updated at the origin rather than downstream system(s); tracks, monitors, and improves the quality of master data feeding into the demand and supply plan.
Materials Planning Parameters - Aligns parameters (minimum order quantity, multiple order quantity, lead time, part cost, etc.) to balance the supply and demand plans while stabilizing the supply chain; runs changes to parameter settings in the planning environment and analyzes the impact on customer delivery and inventory.
Materials Planning System Utilization - Uses the materials planning system to manage supply and demand plans taking long-term corrective action on exception messages and other alerts based on root cause analysis; occasionally refers to ad-hoc tools such as Excel, Access, TOAD, OMS, etc. in performing problem-solving, while leveraging the materials planning system as the primary tool in day-to-day operations.
Plan for Every Part (PFEP) - Uses PFEP in planning, designing, and management of systems and processes within a facility to ensure delivery of the right part at the right time in the right quantity to the right place, which in turn guarantees smooth operations; applies PFEP principles on the end to end supply chain with particular attention to the relationships between master data management, materials planning parameters, engineered material flows, transport management, and warehouse management.

Base salary rate commensurate with experience. Additional benefits vary between locations and include options such as our 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan, Cash Balance Pension Plan, Medical/Dental/Life Insurance, Health Savings Account, Domestic Partners Coverage, and a full complement of personal and professional benefits.
