Risk Management & Early Warning

• Identify and flag capacity risks, bottlenecks, and constraints (factory loading, critical components, engineering).
• Proactively escalate early alerts to VP and leadership with mitigation options.
• Maintain inventory reservation flags and constraints dashboards.

Strategic Enablement
