- Prepare, maintain, and circulate all MIS sheets, trackers, and operational documentation, keeping records accurate and up to date for daily and monthly management review.
- Manage vendors and third-party service providers — onboarding, negotiating rates, tracking performance, and ensuring timely supply of materials and services.
- Check and verify all vendor bills against purchase orders and delivery records, and ensure accurate, timely entries in the system (ERP / inventory / accounting).
- Coordinate dispatch schedules with the production and warehouse team — planning loads, vehicles, and routes to meet delivery commitments.
- Prepare and manage dispatch paperwork, including invoices, e-way bills, and delivery challans, in line with statutory and internal requirements.
- Monitor key operational metrics — on-time dispatch, order accuracy, inventory levels, and pending bills — and flag issues proactively.
- Support inventory control, stock reconciliation, and material planning at the factory.
- Liaise with the sales, production, and accounts teams to resolve operational bottlenecks and keep orders on track.
