Customer Forecasts - Work with each customer to realize their actual production requirements to feed good forecasting information back to our Manufacturing department to insure we have the most efficient levels of raw material. Customer pricing changes - Market changes in raw material need to be communicated back to the customers in enough time to insure all parties involved are clear on the "pass through" costs that the customer may see at the time of invoicing. 1st point of contact - When the customer has a complaint or concern, my position is that first point of contact to resolve the issue at hand usually by providing options until a clear resolution of the issue can be found. Monthly Reporting - At each month end I generate the reports that reflect how we performed against plan. These reports include PPM results, customer claim costs, and the general "cost of Quality". Trade shows - Assist the Sales Group at the trade shows to generate that first contact with a potential new buyer.
