Manager-Costing

Responsibilities & Key Deliverables

• Should be cost estimations for Part and tooling including dies, cutting tools, fixtures for Forgings, Gears & Shafts , Machining components for new developments and design changes.
• Part cost Estimations to be done at different stages of the project- concept / model based, drawing based.
• Identify areas of cost reduction through design iteration to achieve the cost optimization at design stage itself , also suggesting Cost reduction proposals based on design, process and weight optimization for existing parts.
• Study New & existing manufacturing processes at supplier end to prepare Costing guidelines & MHR, estimation Templates.
• Discussion for costing gap closures w.r.t costing assumptions, suggest best processes for cost, process verification as needed.

Experience

• 8-10 years experience in the Development & Pricing.
• Experience in Forging, Gear & Shafts, Machining Components preferred.
