Apply Group standards under the Faurecia Excellence System (FES) and aligned with FIS industrial strategy.
The main mission of the role is to define, develop and validate tools, equipment and associated processes:

• to reach Tooling & Equipment transfer to plant on time, MPT and SOP on time and right first time
• to ensure product / process robustness according to customer specification within FIS production system requirements

Timeframe is:

• from Program Award / latest Program Kick-off until tool, equipment and associated process validation

Scope is:

• Standard and Non-standard program related equipment
• Make and sub-contracted tool, equipment and processes

Main responsibilities are:
1. Timing plan

Build, update & monitor the complete timing plan for tools, equipment and associated processes to reach, Tooling & Equipment transfer to plant, MPT and SOP on time and right first time.

Build, update & monitor the progress of tool & process convergence to targets and report progress.
2. Definition and feasibility
Defines tools, equipment & associated process specificities for the program taking into considerations standard targets.
In case of refurbishmed equipment, define the specifications and follow-up the refurbishment executed by the plant
Provide input for simplification of product to reach reliable tool, equipment and associated process definition.
Provide technical support to the supplier RFQ process and tool makers / equipment providers selection process.
Validate the supplier offer from technical point of view.

Commit to necessary steps to kick off tool & equipment (SNC, Kick Off, Pre Study, Study).
Define process parameters according to product key characteristics
Provide inputs for PFMEA related to his own Tool, Equipment and processes.
Write the purchase order for Tooling
Liaise between program, plant & toolmaker to ensure tuning & implementation of product modification.
3. Development
Pre-requisite: ensure all necessary material (availability of raw material, packaging & checking fixtures ...) are in place to perform the trials in the best conditions
If possible to pre-validate the T&E, process at Application Pilot Plant, provide the necessary inputs through standard documentation.
Organize and perform trials in the closest serial life conditions
Identify gaps to serial life conditions and major risks impacting the defined targets, set-up a convergence plan

Track progress and convergence of all defined targets (cycle time, scrap rate, dimensions ...) to keep Quality, Cost, Delivery in line with the initial business plan.

Consolidate all actions in PDCA template & implement all actions defined after each trial to reach Quality, Cost, Delivery in line with initial plan
Liaise between program, plant & toolmaker / equipment provider to ensure tuning & implementation of product modification.
In charge of the pre-acceptance of Tool & Equipment at suppliers:

• Organize production trials performed at suppliers
• Ensure all targets checks done at production trials
• Ensure production trials performed before tool / equipment transfers from toolmaker/ equipment provider to plant including scrap level and cycle time

Ensure the proper transfer of the Tooling & Equipment from suppliers to the plants:

• Provide the necessary information regarding Tooling & Equipment to Logistics to ensure proper transportation set-up
• Transfer of proper documentation to the plant together with the Tool & Equipment
• Check with the plant good preparation of the Tooling & Equipment reception and installation into the plants (e.g. internal transportation inside the plants if needed)

4. Validation
In charge of the pre-acceptance of Tool & Equipment at the plant (until green MPT):

• Support and follow production trials performed at plant
• Support plant to perform all targets checks at production trials (Production Trials, Mass Production Trials and customer at plant) and track progress of all defined targets (cycle time, scrap rate, dimensions ...)
• Define & lead the convergence plan in case of target gaps

Follow-up the final acceptance of Tooling & Equipment at the plant (until SOP):

• Monitors T&E and associated process performance in the plant through the daily KPIs reported by the plant
• Ensure conformity of the produced part versus the product specifications, through process parameters optimization.
• Support appearance approval for the engineering team (on virgin and aged parts).
• Follow-up convergence plan until the final acceptance
