Key Responsibilities
Production Scheduling & Line Balancing: Prepare daily, weekly, and monthly master production schedules (MPS). Map and allocate workloads to specific machinery and assembly lines to prevent idle time or processing bottlenecks.
Material Requirement Planning (MRP): Analyze the Bill of Materials (BOM) against available physical stock. Coordinate directly with Purchase and Stores departments to flag shortages and ensure raw materials, components, and consumables are staged on-time.
Shop Floor Control & Progress Tracking: Perform daily shop floor walkthroughs to track actual production output against the planned targets. Identify delays immediately, rearrange job sequences, and execute contingency recovery schedules.
ERP Data Management: Manage and update all production routing, work order releases, material consumption entries, and job cards inside the ERP system (., SAP, Zoho, Tally Prime) to ensure inventory accuracy.
Dispatch & Delivery Management: Track finished goods inventory and collaborate with logistics to prepare dispatch timelines. Align production priority with real-time customer schedule updates or emergency order requests.
Capacity & Efficiency Analysis: Compile production data to calculate key metrics like OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness), downtime logs, and labor productivity. Support continuous improvement programs like 5S and Lean Manufacturing.
