About The Position

The delivery model is global. These consultants will work daily with CGI and client transition and application teams in other regions and time zones, and with third party vendors supporting the surrounding applications. Candidates need to be effective in that setting: clear written communication, disciplined handoffs, and the willingness to flex hours for overlap when the work requires it. This role can be based remotely anywhere in the United States however Dallas, Texas is highly preferred. Due to the nature of the work and in compliance with federal regulations, an active security clearance is required for this position.

Experience with SAP Variant Configuration, engineering change management, or Document Management System for controlled technical data.
Exposure to MES integration and SAP PP/DS.

Responsibilities

Support production planning and quality management for a discrete manufacturing environment, with a particular emphasis on MRP health: monitoring planning runs, resolving exception messages, and keeping the planning data clean enough that the shop floor can trust it.
Configure and support SAP PP: material master planning views, BOMs, routings, work centers, MRP configuration, production orders, capacity planning, and shop floor confirmations.
Own MRP monitoring: run and review MRP results, work exception messages (MD06, MD07), analyze stock/requirements lists, and partner with planners and buyers to clear backlog and correct master data that causes planning noise.
Configure and support SAP QM: inspection plans, inspection lots, results recording, usage decisions, quality notifications, certificates of analysis, and quality info records for vendor qualification.
Support serialization, batch management, and traceability requirements, including as built configuration and nonconformance handling.
Troubleshoot production issues across PP and QM and drive fixes through change control.
Lead the transition of your process area into the client's new target environment: take knowledge transfer, document current state configuration and interfaces, validate migrated configuration and data, and confirm interfaces work end to end.
Stabilize and run: establish steady state support processes, write runbooks and knowledge transfer documentation, and move the area to defined SLAs.
Collaborate daily with distributed CGI and client teams across regions and time zones, and with third party vendors on connected applications.
