Support supplier recovery projects by developing and validating manufacturing processes, routings, and process controls that meet program requirements.
Perform on-site supplier process assessments to identify non-conformances, capacity limits, tooling deficiencies, and process risks.
Collaborate with cross-functional recovery teams (Global Field Operations, Supplier Management & Quality, Engineering and Supply Chain Recovery teams) to implement containment, root-cause countermeasures, and permanent corrective actions.
Develop and execute manufacturing process validations, first article/production approvals, and test/inspection plans.
Design and specify shop aides, tooling and fixtures; coordinate vendor sourcing or in-house fabrication as required.
Support supplier implementation of lean manufacturing practices (SMED, 5S, standardized work, manufacturing documentation) to restore throughput and reduce variability.
Troubleshoot process failures with hands-on technical leadership, implementing corrective actions and verifying effectiveness.
Analyze manufacturing operating plans, document constraints, determine capacity and negotiate alternatives as required.
Evaluate product assembly instructions and standardize assembly practices.
Travel regularly to supplier sites for hands-on support, validation, and return to stable production.
