Material & Drawing Readiness

• Maintain visibility into material readiness and drawing release milestones for scheduled production work.
• Assess potential production schedule impacts resulting from inventory gaps, vendor delays, or incomplete engineering documentation.
• Evaluate available inventory within the DTPS ERP (Epicor) System for alternate material solutions when shortages or delays arise, and proactively escalate risks and recovery options to the Supply Chain team.
• Coordinate with Supply Chain teams to escalate vendor delivery issues, resolve missing material concerns, and support on-time production execution.

Production Scheduling & Coordination

• Develop, maintain, and manage the master production schedule for manufacturing operations.
• Coordinate with Project Management regarding project timelines, production schedule changes, customer priorities, and operational needs.
• Support Order Acceptance Meetings by providing scheduling input and operational constraints.
• Adjust production schedule as needed to address changing priorities, shortages, production delays, or customer commitments.
• Communicate production schedule updates and impacts clearly to the Production Teams, Logistics Teams, Project Management, and PSS Leadership.

Cross-Functional Operational Support

• Coordinate with Assembly and Welding teams to ensure projects are prepared, prioritized, and sequenced appropriately for production.
• Coordinate with Steel Control regarding steel check-in priorities based on production schedules and project demands.
• Work closely with Receiving teams to prioritize and expedite critical incoming materials needed for projects quickly approaching production release to prevent operational delays.
• Coordinate with the Production Support teams to ensure projects are prepared and sequenced appropriately for production.
• Communicate projected production completion schedules and coordinate production status updates with Shipping to support timely customer delivery.
• Identify and communicate recurring issues involving internal DTPS teams, vendors, and material flow that could negatively affect upcoming production schedules.
• Coordinate with the Systems team to build and refine DTPS ERP (Epicor) dashboards that improve material flow, production visibility, and operational processes.
