• - Internal

  • 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…).

    Objective is to make the new product cost meet marketing target and offer the product cost for orient the design/supply chain/Industrialization strategy solution select in R&D phase.

    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 action.

    4 -Guarantee the simulation of “produce” 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…)
