He/she provides clarity and visibility through alignment on order need by date by horizontally collaborating with field PM, GPLE, Module team, and Inventory team.
Influence: SCPM generally works within the SSC team; however, they focus on larger cross-Startup deployment processes. They influence processes at the Module deployment level - coordinate materials received and approve payment.

Communication: SCPM also supports relevant field teams and external teams such as preconstruction, design, and construction providing order planning status per site/REI.
Process Improvement: SCPM completes dive deep analysis on the root causes for ordering misses, project deployment delays, and recommends process improvements to meet KPIs.
Impact: The main impact of SCPM is to deliver the right material on time, aligned with the site deployment plan to enable a successful ORT. SCL also leads to cost avoidance by first prioritizing the transfer from depot and collaboration with IT RAD to ensure usage of existing stocks before the actual order is planned around it.
Supervision: SCPM does not have direct people management responsibilities. However, they indirectly coordinate work with new joiners at DPT and contingent resources in ordering execution.
Leadership: SCPM directly interacts with Startup PM, Inventory manager, Invoices, Global Procurement Launch & Expansion (GPLE), Global Procurement Organization (GPO), Ops Tech IT, and materials suppliers.
Knowledge: SCPM manages a large database. They are able to dive deep into complex data collected from various sources (teams). They own the end-to-end inventory ordering process.
Execution: SCPM defines requirements and identifies key milestones for stakeholders involved in central ordering processes.
