ERP’s used • Worldwide Engineering Releasing System (WERS) feeds the part-usage details to GPIRS. • Global Prototype Inventory Requisitioning and Scheduling (GPIRS) system for ordering prototype parts globally. • Worldwide Integrated Purchasing System (WIPS) feeds source details to GPIRS.
Prototype Engineering builds:
- Participate Program review meetings to understand the build strategy and timings
- Ensure all super long lead & long lead items are ordered as per agreed window.
• Ensure BOM validation tool is ready for Engineers to validate. Conduct overview/training session on Validation guidelines to Design Engineers and program team prior to validation. • BOM Validation- Drive on time completion of GPIRS BoM validation by Design engineers supported by the program team.
- BOM Maintenance- New added parts /deleted parts / Quantity change….Ensure accuracy and latest BOM at any given point in time.
- Complete part requisition/orders to suppliers (via GPIRS ERP) as per Engineering directions
- Participate in Part Change Notification (PCN) meeting and validate the change requirements, approve the PCN and action as per requirements.
- Review suspense list (pending sourcing action) generated from GPIRS system and follow-up with Purchasing for sourcing completion in Manufacturing builds.
- Lead Part Tracking Review (PTR) meetings post ordering completion (16 weeks through 4 weeks or as per agreed timeline with CFT to Material Required Date) of each build event.
- Participate in Build shortage meetings
Prototype Manufacturing builds:
