The Technical Program Management (TPM) team oversees end to end delivery of New Product Introduction (NPI) projects. The TPM assesses project complexity, allocates resources, and drives cross‑functional engineering alignment through structured checkpoints, weekly reviews, and close collaboration with Operations. They manage CAPEX, ensure functional milestones are met, and navigate a fast‑paced environment to deliver optimal, timely solutions. TPMs are proactive team players who steer coordination, make tough decisions, and support DF(X) and design‑to‑cost initiatives to achieve project goals.
About the roleThe TPM evaluates project complexity and collaborates with key engineering functions to allocate necessary resources. The TPM establishes critical engineering checkpoints to track progress and secure senior management approval.
Beyond engineering reviews, the TPM holds weekly project meetings with their team.
TPM manage project CAPEX when needed, ensuring spending stays within budget and requesting additional funds when needed.
Strong coordination and collaboration across engineering teams is essential; TPM must steer this and make tough decisions when required.
The TPM is responsible for mapping and achieving functional milestones at each checkpoint.
Success requires thriving in a fast paced, evolving environment and delivering optimal solutions within deadlines.
The TPM works closely with Operations to install production capacities at the right time.
TPM are committed team players: they’re flexible, proactive, and willing to exceed expectations.
TPMs collaborate cross-functionally to deliver DF(X) and design to cost initiatives, ensuring project goals are met.
Specific TPM Responsibilities for NPI Projects:
Assess NPI complexity and create a resource plan, secure buy in from engineering functions and coordinate staffing.
Set key checkpoints and engage stakeholders for their approval and input.
Guide engineering teams to define their deliverables and clear milestones, including relevant design contributions.
Ensure each function integrates required protocols, such as IQ/OQ/PQ or DFM and Mold Flow analysis, into their plans.
Align with Operations on project goals and deliverables.
Hold regular NPI review and share project updates with senior management.
Build strong relationships with teams outside engineering, especially RDD, Operations and outsource procurement, to support NPI success.
Maintain a project tracker covering health, timeline adherence, capital spending, DF(X), design to cost and risk projections.
Foster a collaborative and positive culture across the project team.
Provide key insights from Manufacturing and Operations perspectives.
Act as the escalation point for challenges, driving swift resolution.
