Key Responsibilities

  • Facilitate the initial provisioning and re-provisioning of a designated group of components, including Buyer Furnished Equipment (BFE), modifications, special engineering work items, and breakdown spares for in-house repairable components by evaluating manufacturer guidelines and utilizing internal expertise to effectively support fleet expansion and phase-out strategies.
  • Ensure adherence to Material Planning protocols, methodologies, and standards relevant to various categories of aircraft components to maintain efficient stock levels.
  • Contribute to achieving supply chain performance metrics, including the management and oversight of Aircraft On Ground (AOG) situations, shortages, service level agreements (SLAs), surplus inventory, deferred defects, cycle times, backlogs, and other key performance indicators (KPIs).

  • Engage in cost optimization initiatives by participating in relevant projects as required.
