• Communicate regional inventory gaps to internal/external stakeholders and be accountable for service results.
• Be a key advocate for smooth flow of supply and drive transparency when supply is constrained.
• Push end to end collaboration and continuous improvement in areas that affect supply, service or waste.
• Daily review of event exceptions that impact short term inventory projections such as ‘late incubation release’, ‘loads in the past’, ‘in-transits in the past’. Follow up with key cross functional teams to resolve event exceptions and reduce future event exceptions.
• Reconcile and confirm dispatch plans. Adjust dispatch plans where needed to account for redeployment decisions, possible spoilage, rebalancing inventory levels, production planning variance, or aging of stock.
• Work closely with Factory and Transportation teams to ensure production deployment is completed timely and reduces need for future re-deployment.

React to current capacity constraints by prioritizing inventory moves, reducing truckloads, pushing out supply moves all while solving for service. • Make decisions on inventory movement that maximizes supply payload. Build and optimize truckloads using system tools to improve payload while maintaining target service levels. Research examples where payload is not met to identify root cause and drive improvement.

• Check Available To Promise (ATP) inventory and confirm inventory to STO Delivery Notes according to aligned cut-off times
