Amber,
I think there is a misunderstanding/confusion on the agreed process, which it has not been implemented yet. If you might recall from our meeting, I stated that by August 1, I will create a new tracking file to capture (year out) the supplier transition plan for procurement led sourcing initiatives and critical VO initiatives (managed by Vito Biundo). In order to do this, I would use our sourcing calendar and the packaging engineering VO list. From a process perspective, the VO list is updated on a monthly basis by the packaging engineering group and the sourcing calendar by my team. To Bethany’s point, I have instructed my team to help Vito keep this list as updated as possible.
Please keep in mind that despite the new tracking file, my team will continue to send e-mails to communicate the qualification approvals from engineering, request volume, sourcing progress, etc. Our intend is not to replace current the day to day communication process which the monthly review. The monthly review will become a leadership awareness tool, where key stakeholders will have the opportunity to review and provide feedback if needed. …show more content…
Currently the packaging engineering team only provides the approval for the qualification, once we get their approval is when my team in conjunction with planning will plan the run out. Not sure why Bethany was under the impression that the transitioning was in two weeks. Stephen is stating that final qualification results will be ready in two weeks and that we will need to plan the run out carefully in order to ensure a hard transition. We have not agreed on any transition plan yet.
I think that once we get the new process rolling, we will be resolving any potential issues as a team and we will be 100% aligned.
