*Liaison between Manufacturing and Engineering areas to address any issue
related to Powertrain electrical components function / performance / assembly.
*Prompt communication to Part Owner from Powertrain Electrical to inform on
issues reported by the Assembly Plant.
*Validate implementation in Assembly Plant of Engineering Changes from
Powertrain electrical owned parts.
*Coordinate and follow up execution of tests to be performed at Assembly Plant
to confirm part conformance to customer’s requirements.
*Perform proposed changes for part design are implemented into Assembly Plant;
evaluate with Resident Engineer feasibility before Engineering Change
processing.
*Ensure to Assembly Plants that parts with pending validation are OK to be
shipped and assembled into saleable vehicles.
*Address & communicate to appropriate DRE Quality related issues from Root Cause
definition until Permanent Corrective Action implementation.
*Define rework procedures and obtain quotes from 3rd party suppliers for on-site
containment.
*Create and evaluate requests for component’s functional testing in assembly
plants before implementation into normal production. (Production Evaluation
Request).
*Release temporary approvals for part validation on assigned vehicle families.
(Interim Approval Authorization).
*Support to Assembly Plants on the usage and application of specifications and
design changes according to Engineering Changes.
*Approve or reject documents for Temporary Substitution on components in
Assembly Plant.
*Request prototype parts manufacturing to solve warranty issues.
*Obtainment of product changes information, implementation dates, service and/or
recall technical bulletins, Product Engineering standards, bill of material and
Engineering graphs.
*Verify product manufacturing process before mass production release.
*Request and obtainment of concurrencies on validations, temporary and
definitive product deviatio
