Project Industrial & Costing Manager (PrIM) at Alstom

PURPOSE OF THE JOB

The PrIM pilots, for a project, the following activities :

Process & Manufacturing Engineering

• Flow industrialization, product protection (with the support of SC dept.)

Manufacturing

• The PrIM integrates Supply Chain & Quality requirements for industrial management.

INTERFACES & NETWORK LINKS:

INTERNAL /  EXTERNAL:   

• Product Engineering Manager, Manufacturing, Supply chain, PME department, PIM.
• Industrial Quality, PrQSM, PrTCM, ToT manager.
• Central HQ: Industrial Solution Department, PME, ToT

MAIN RESPONSABILITIES 

During specification and preliminary design phases:

• Set-up Industrial organization of the project: staffing, work package, tools.
• Precise PIO (Project Industrial Organization) and DAMOB (Make or Buy strategy)
• Coordinate co-engineering activities along with the PrEM. Animate ICONE workshops.
• Arbitrate on product / process solutions when needed.
• Perform gap analysis with Ref Lib, identify impact on manufacturing process.
• Build IMP (Industrial Management Plan)
• Contributes to the logistics strategy definition with the PrSCM (Project Supply Chain Manager)
• Identify the list of long lead time items to be monitored through the PMFU (Parts Maturity Follow-up) in coordination with PrSM and PrSCM

During detailed design phase and before Serial Go:

• Monitor the industrialization activity using IMFU (Industrial Maturity Follow-Up), and completion of the following deliverables:
• Industrial documentation (Work Instructions)
• Manufacturing equipment and tooling
• Workshop and work stations layouts
• ERP master data, including routings & method time.
• Line balancing and task sequencing

Ensure completion of P-FMEA and Control Plan along with Industrial Quality

• Define Transfer of activities and bring support to ToT Manager.
• Contributes to the definition of the kitting strategy (purchasing & line feeding)
• Plan and organize training of manufacturing teams.
• Ensure qualification of manufacturing blue collars on special processes in due time.
• Manage the production planning at the start of production (pre-serial phase)
• Ensure internal FAIs are performed on schedule in order to pronounce the Serial Go.
• Participate to CCB (Change and Configuration Board) to validate engineering changes and define date or rank of application.

After serial Go:

• Manage the retrofit activities after engineering changes: industrialization, and manufacturing planning. Set-up a dedicated organization and coordinate with the PrTCM.
• Coordinates with PSCM the parts procurement in case of retrofit activities
• Lead the improvement action plan to achieve Industrial QCD targets.

Industrial Costing:

• Based on elements coming from Engineering, Project, PIM, Supply Chain and Industrial Quality, performs the costing of a new product and/or process solution on the industrial scope.

Industrial scope includes:

• Fixed Industrialization costs*
• Variable production costs*
• Quality inspection costs*
• Supply Chain variable costs*
• Material and labor costs

Industrial costing have to be performed in the following situation:

• Development of a new product.
• Development of a new process or manufacturing technology.
• During tender phase of a project. In this case, PIO, Make or Buy assumptions have to be defined and validated.
• Before decision of a MoB change.
• In case of a transfer of activities.
• In case of a major product or process change being decided.

Other activities:

• Perform industrial REX on industrial activities.
• Contribute to update the Industrial Ref Lib.
• Update industrial costs of the Ref Lib.
• Define and maintain the workload plan of the PME department, based on S&OP demand plan.
• Perform specific analysis such as Time Spent vs Method Time, on demand.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

• Project QCD on industrial scope:
• Product quality: demerit, PC9 and PC11 NCR level.
• Fixed and variable industrial cost in line with target.
• Industrialization planning in line with project planning.
• MPS accuracy.

Costing lead-time

• Costing accuracy
