Ensure suppliers are prepared for PPAP, packaging, labeling, and logistics requirements, driving compliance with all launch standards and communicating with cross functional team members.
Support supplier data readiness as needed (ERP/EDI setup, item master, sourcing data) to support seamless procurement, shipping, and receiving processes.
Support supplier transitions and outsourcing activities, ensuring readiness through proper planning, asset tracking, and documentation handoffs.

· Support and track RFQs and new model quotes (piece price, tooling, and lead time) in Supplios and ensure timely submissions of outsource requests, clarifications, and approvals.
