- Workstream Coordination: Coordinate engineering, manufacturing, quality, and IT activities required for deployment at all levels of the organization; escalate cross-functional issues via the Program Manager. Act as a liaison between project management, digital technology, planning, the project team, and line management.
- System Integration: In collaboration with the IT organization, ensure effective integration of PLM and MES with ERP systems (e.g., SAP S/4HANA) and adjacent systems; validate data integrity and interfaces.
- Process Implementation: In collaboration with business teams, coordinate the implementation of standardized processes (configuration management, traceability, shop-floor execution) aligned with aerospace industry requirements.
- Testing and Validation: In collaboration with Business Analysts, plan and track SIT/UAT execution, manage defect resolution, and ensure production readiness.
- Change Management and Training: In collaboration with the Change Management lead and training organization, plan and track site-level change plans, training activities, and cutover execution to ensure successful adoption.
