Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My role involves carrying out quality inspection and analysis on exhaust pipe to identify defects and using problem solving tools such as 8D and KATA QRCI to identify root cause. On a day to day basis, I use software such as SAP and MII to generate scrap report, review rejected part, inventory management, supplier notification and scrap presentation
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I have taken on different responsibilities as I had to step up whenever the team was busy or off-site and there was a problem in production. I had the main responsibility of painting and managing our inventory for defected parts, analysing rejected parts them using measuring equipment and sending notifications to supplier building supplier relationship
