Position
Summary The Lead SAP Business Systems, Operations & Supply Chain is a senior individual contributor responsible for the design, configuration, and continuous improvement of SAP solutions supporting ASP's manufacturing operations across two medical device production sites. Operating with a high degree of independence, this role applies specialized depth of expertise across SAP manufacturing and operations modules — including Production Planning (PP), process order management, Bill of Materials (BOM), recipe management, and Materials Management (MM) — combined with strong working knowledge of FICO integration and product costing, to interpret complex operational requirements, recommend best practices, and deliver solutions that drive efficiency, compliance, and financial accuracy across ASP's manufacturing functions. This role partners closely with plant operations managers, supply chain leaders, finance teams, and quality stakeholders to ensure SAP solutions are aligned with manufacturing workflows, regulatory requirements, and business objectives. The Sr. SAP Solutions Analyst leads functional workstreams within projects of moderate-to-high complexity, acts as a subject matter expert for colleagues and business stakeholders, and contributes to the ongoing optimization of ASP's manufacturing systems landscape.
Duties and Responsibilities
Under limited supervision and in accordance with all applicable regulations and ASP policies, the duties and responsibilities of this position include: Production Planning & Manufacturing Execution Production Planning (PP): Design, configure, and maintain SAP PP solutions supporting process and discrete manufacturing operations across ASP's two production sites, including MRP, production scheduling, capacity planning, work center management, and shop floor control. Process Order Management: Design and maintain process order configurations supporting ASP's manufacturing execution, including order creation, confirmation, goods issue, and goods receipt workflows — ensuring accurate reflection of manufacturing actuals in SAP. Bill of Materials (BOM): Develop, maintain, and govern Bill of Materials (BOM) structures across finished goods, semi-finished products, and raw materials, ensuring BOM accuracy, version control, and alignment with engineering and production requirements. Recipe Management (PP-PI): Configure and maintain SAP recipe management and master recipes within PP-PI (Production Planning for Process Industries), supporting batch manufacturing processes, material components, and process instructions relevant to ASP's medical device production environment. Planning Optimization: Analyze production planning outputs — including MRP results, planned orders, and capacity loads — to identify process gaps, recommend improvements, and work with operations teams to optimize planning parameters and scheduling efficiency. Operational Support: Support plant-level production scheduling processes, collaborating with production planners and operations managers to ensure SAP accurately reflects manufacturing realities and supports effective operational decision-making. FICO Integration & Product Costing PP-FICO Integration: Apply strong working knowledge of SAP FICO integration with manufacturing modules to ensure accurate cost flow from production orders and process orders into financial accounting, including goods issue postings, activity confirmations, and order settlement. Product Costing (CO-PC): Support product costing processes within SAP, including cost estimate creation, costing runs, and standard cost updates — collaborating with finance teams to ensure manufacturing cost structures are accurately reflected in SAP CO-PC. Cost Center & Activity Costing: Understand and support cost center accounting and internal order settlement relevant to manufacturing operations, ensuring activity-based costing configurations align with ASP's manufacturing cost model.
