DESCRIPTION

The Integrated Business Planning (IBP) is a decision-making process that aligns a company's strategy, demand, supply, and financials through a focused planning approach. The result is a single operating plan that senior leadership holds their teams accountable for achieving. IBP connects functions and teams to a unified plan, to expect capacity needs to fulfill demand while reaching goals like increased speed, reduced operating costs and maximized capacity utilization. The team analyzed MX Ops' mid and long-term planning mechanisms and identified four key opportunities: 1) Lack of support in reaching demand projections, 2) Planning coordination by non-local stakeholders, 3) Difficulty in gaining an end-to-end business visibility, and 4) Infrequent planning cycles without follow-up. The goal of having a headcount dedicated to IBP is to provide a more integral view of Mexico Operations areas and ensure we can fulfill the forecasted demand while accomplishing strategic objectives. The team proposes a deeper review of the demand landscape and drivers, followed by an assessment of Mexico Operations' ability to resolve the demand, and the development of a clear strategy and vision to reach operational goals. We expect this role to work closely with M/MM/LM teams and with the Network Design PM, this role will report to the FX team.
