  • Metrics & Reporting: Track and report on key production metrics including output volume, on-time delivery, scrap/rework rates, labor efficiency, and safety incidents. Use data to drive decisions and present regular updates to leadership.
  • Budget Management: Manage the fabrication department budget, including labor costs, tooling, consumables, and capital equipment needs. Identify cost-reduction opportunities without compromising quality or safety.
  • Equipment & Maintenance: Ensure fabrication equipment and tooling are properly maintained and operational. Coordinate with maintenance teams on preventive maintenance schedules and capital equipment procurement.
