1. NPI strategy and execution
* Stand up and operate the passive materials NPI pipeline: intake → prioritize
→ spec → qualify → supplier readiness → standards → catalog/BOM integration →
forecasting enablement → release gates → rollout adoption.
* Drive “first-time-right” readiness for new builds and transitions (including
multi‑planar and new fabrics), reducing reactive shortages and supplemental
BOMs.
2. Release gates and validation
* Implement and operationalize a passive kit completeness gate (Rack Template ↔
BOM ↔ Cut Sheet/Patch Matrix), including enforcement mechanisms and
measurable compliance.
* Ensure rack SKU “kit-of-parts” definitions include ride‑along kit contents
and are integrated into BOM tooling and build readiness checklists.
3. Cross-functional leadership / governance
* Establish clear RACI and operating cadence across Design, Networking,
Automation, HOM/SCO, Demand Planning, Delivery, and external partners/LVVs
where applicable.
* Create governance for standards and templates: versioning, sign-off, audits,
and change control.
4. Build-acceleration NPIs
* Identify and land OCI-driven improvements not tied to fabric changes (e.g.,
new panels/hardware, cable labeling/color/serialization practices,
kitting/packaging improvements, selective prefab), with measurable outcomes
(time-to-deploy, defect reduction).
5. Constrained parts and supplier readiness
* Own the Top Constrained Passive Parts program: alternate qualification
strategy, supplier capacity/ramp plans, risk mitigation, and conversion into
orderable/catalog-ready parts.
6. Software + data systems enablement
* Partner with Automation/Tooling teams to translate standards/kit logic into
scalable software capabilities (validation APIs, checksum/reconciliation,
dashboards, exception workflows).
* Drive visibility with exec-ready metrics and dashboards (supplemental BOM
rate, kit completeness pass rate, forecast late adds, build stop incidents).
