• Ongoing Data Maintenance: Analyze and maintain item attributes, product statuses, BOMs, routings, and sequences to ensure master data remains current and aligned with business and operational requirements.
• Process Improvement: Identify and implement opportunities to improve master data processes, data quality, system functionality, and controls, while supporting special projects and other business initiatives as needed.
