Responsibilities
The Parts Product Analyst (PPA) will manage and analyze engineering drawing notices (EDNs) released for NPI, CPI, and major product updates prior to target release date. (EDNs are notifications of the original release of engineering drawings and subsequent changes to them.) This includes analyzing engineering drawing notices for quality, completeness, and when necessary resolving issues with engineering. The PPA will also utilize systems, their own product knowledge, and EDN information to determine application/product specific serviceability of parts i.e. can the part be serviced and at what level piece part, assembly, group, etc. The PPA will create master parts records (an allinclusive record for an item), validate critical part description indicators, issue cancellations, and submit changes to Numerical Parts Record (NPR).
The PPA will establish initial worldwide inventory levels by analyzing distribution plans, sales and forecast information, product knowledge, and product group information. Incumbent will establish and maintain a business balance between parts availability and months of supply. Various NPI and CPI reports and tools are used to adjust stocking levels in the correct market regions. Each analyst will manage $3M to $5M worth of inventory as they process an average of
6000 to 8000 EDNs and 15 NPIs annually. In addition, the PPA will process approximately 200 Parts Stocking Authorization/Parts Stocking Recommendations (PSA/PSRs) each year (these are part stocking requests made by product groups due to impending field rework programs). The PPA partners with Global Purchasing and Expediting to set priorities for NPI Governance, that is, they keep the ready-to-ship metrics. He/she will also partner with business units concerning product health issues.
