About the role
We are seeking a tenacious and inquisitive N-Tier Value Stream Specialist to drive deep visibility and resilience into the sub-layers of our global supply chain. Be part of one of the fastest-moving organizations within Ford that sets the benchmark for standard work and efficiency. Managing in the Supply Operations Team (SOT) means joining a group of high performers who thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced, high-pressure environment.
This role is pivotal in moving Ford from reactive crisis management to proactive risk elimination. You will be responsible for mapping critical value streams, identifying dangerous concentrations (regional, supplier-specific, or raw material), and leading cross-functional teams to execute mitigation strategies before disruptions occur. You will serve as the detective and the architect of resilience, liaising between SOT, Purchasing, Engineering, and MP&L to ensure the continuity of Ford Production.
We are the movers of the world and the makers of the future. We get up every day, roll up our sleeves and build a better world -- together. At Ford, we’re all a part of something bigger than ourselves. Are you ready to change the way the world moves?
What you'll do...
Sub-Tier Visibility & Value Stream Mapping:
Lead the initiative to illuminate the "Black Box" of the supply chain by mapping multi-tier value streams for critical commodities, electronic components, and raw materials.
Utilize advanced digital tools and supplier data to visualize the end-to-end flow of materials, identifying nodes of connectivity between Tier 1, Tier 2, and raw material sources.
Validate supplier-provided mapping data against real-world intelligence to ensure a "source of truth" regarding manufacturing locations and logistics routes.
Concentration Risk Identification & Analysis:
Proactively analyze the supply base to identify high-risk concentrations, including Regional Risks (geopolitical instability, natural disaster zones), Raw Material Risks (single-source mines, chemical dependencies), and Supplier Risks (financial solvency, capacity constraints).
Calculate and monitor Time to Recover (TTR) and Time to Survive (TTS) metrics for critical components, flagging value streams where TTR exceeds acceptable safety stock levels.
