(printing, cutting, and stitching/welding as applicable).

4. Visual Management

• Implement hourly production tracking boards for BB/Tarps lines and Stores throughput, in coordination with the

• Support the MDM Team on BOM-linked time measurement (crew size / labour / machine calculation) for BB/Tarps

SKUs.

• Coordinate with the peer Industrial Engineer (Cutting & Aluminium Hardware) and elevate capacity- or inventoryimpacting

• Working proficiency in Excel.

Skills & Competencies
