• Ensure respect of all working standards (safety, work instructions, quality, 5S, respect of the product, OK start ...) during the operations and propose/ implement improvements.
• Define work standards with the help of support functions and operators.
• Ensure TPM standards are properly deployed and used : abnormalities detection (formalized on red tags), systematic inspection & regular cleaning of equipment by team, 1st levels of preventive maintenance, maintenance line QRQCs.
• Control regularly genba equipment performance (including cycle time measurements, and microstoppages observation sessions), and react.
• Make regularly time-measurements with main MUDA seeking
• Ensure that all displays of his/her perimeter (QCDM by APT, QCDM & communication areas at APZ level) are updated at end of shift, and make sure that workers have necessary material to do so.

Manage production

• Propose every week APZ headcounts & organization to the APU Manager, according to MPS.
• Ensure production, respecting SQCDM & inventory targets.
• In case a detected problem cannot be solved by the APT, assign and check containment and corrective actions with APU support functions and / or management.

• Respect daily the MPS contract.
• In case of daily MPS respect deviation, take necessary measures within the week, after validation by APU Manager, to have respected weekly MPS at the end of the week.
• Get involvement of support functions every time necessary to solve as fast as possible the issues identified by APTs.
• Monitor shift QCDM and ensure QCDM boards are updated.
• Make reports defined by site.

Manage Continuous Improvement
