• Bridge the gap between strategic business goals and operational execution, focusing on achieving Financial AOP (Annual Operating Plan) targets.

3)Dynamic Inventory Strategy

• Utilize digital tools and technologies to improve planning accuracy, efficiency, and responsiveness.
• Shift from static safety stock to Dynamic Buffer Management. Use data-driven insights to right-size inventory across global hubs, maximizing cash flow and service levels.
• Implement and optimize digital solutions for demand forecasting, inventory management, and production scheduling.

4) Performance Metrics

• Track and analyze key performance indicators such as OTD, ITO, and inventory turnover.

• Collaborate with sales, marketing, production, and supply chain teams to ensure alignment on planning objectives and strategies.
• Communicate planning status, issues, and solutions to stakeholders in a clear and concise manner.

6)Continuous Improvement

• Stay updated on industry trends and best practices in planning and digital transformation.
• Lead initiatives to improve planning processes, tools, and systems.
