Responsibilities 1 - Animate the project team and lead the product cost simulation during the whole project phase with the product cost methodology (Design to Cost/Should cost/profitability…). Simulate the new parts cost by drawing and specification offered. (plastic o& metal parts).
2 – Lead the Competitor Analysis on existing product cost of internal & external “benchmark” .
3 –Explain the cost variance between project stage gate . Discover the cost risk and provide orientation for cost optimization actions.
4 -Guarantee the simulation of target cost in project phase comply with the cost transfer to manufacturing plant for mass production.
5 –Contribute to the continuous improvement of product cost with continuous engineering / localization /supply chain solution etc…)
