POSITION OVERVIEW
As part of our clients project, the Supply Modeler defines planning and optimization strategies associated with model performance, design, and deployment of new functionalities. This role is responsible for updating the Supply Model strategy based on business requirements and regularly evaluating and refining supply network models through data-driven improvements as OMP Unison is implemented across the organization.
IDEAL CANDIDATE PROFILE
The ideal candidate is an analytical supply chain expert with hands-on experience implementing OMP Unison CP/DPS modules and constructing mathematical models for complex supply networks. They possess strong cross-functional communication skills, bridging technical modeling with business stakeholders in manufacturing, inventory, and distribution to drive data-driven optimization and risk mitigation.
responsibilities
- Assess the current state of the supply network, understand business objectives, and design a strategy to model and optimize the supply chain.
- Collaborate with stakeholders within Project Team CP & DPS Streams and business roles (Concurrent Planners, Manufacturing, Inventory Analysts, Distribution) to define updated business requirements and success criteria.
- Translate business needs and strategy templates into clear mathematical and heuristic models.
- Utilize modeling and simulation tools to perform updates of parameters (such as costs and penalties) of supply network models to align with business goals and execute testing.
- Conduct regular performance evaluations to ensure models remain effective, adapt to changing market conditions, and provide feedback for Supply Modeling governance meetings.
- Incorporate risk management strategies and develop contingency plans within supply chain modeling.
