Understanding of manufacturing BOMs and routings, and how engineering releases flow into planning and production.
One to three years of manufacturing-environment experience.
Three to five years of accurate data-entry or technical-records experience.
Experience using a PDM/PLM system, particularly SolidWorks PDM.

Responsibilities

Maintain part-number data and project configuration items in Costpoint or other authorized systems, and research and resolve incorrect, duplicate, or incomplete part information.
Review provisional or preliminary and engineering BOM line items for part-number accuracy, availability, cost, and consistency with released engineering data.
Transcribe and maintain drawing BOMs as engineering BOMs in Costpoint, verifying parent-child structure, quantities, units of measure, and applicable revisions.
Review engineering change requests and associated drawings for part-number and revision accuracy, and support traceable implementation of approved changes.
Check drawing title blocks, revision tables, and master-file consistency; approve, reject, or route drawing revision submissions in accordance with delegated authority and configuration management procedures.
Coordinate with Manufacturing and Planning regarding released engineering BOMs and manufacturing BOMs and routings, including operations, work centers, and revision or effectivity considerations; identify discrepancies for authorized owners to resolve.
Use SolidWorks PDM to locate and review drawings and supporting documents, verify revision status, and process assigned workflow items.
Support part-cost research and estimation using supplier quotes and appropriate online sources; maintain authorized cost information and assist with requests for quotation as assigned.
Coordinate with Engineering, Manufacturing, Purchasing, and other team members to resolve data issues and communicate changes affecting procurement or production.
Maintain and distribute configuration reports, item lists, and other records; follow applicable quality procedures and documented work instructions.
