Position: SAP FTP Consultant (Mid-Level)
Contract Duration: 6 Months
Location: Dallas (Longview), TX | Tulsa, OK | Memphis, TN
Work Arrangement: Remote
Shift Timings: 8:00 AM 5:00 PM CST
Job Description
The SAP FTP Consultant will work on the client's Forecast-to-Produce (FTP) process in SAP. This role supports planning, manufacturing execution, Material Requirements Planning (MRP), production orders, routing and BOM integration, production scheduling, shop floor transactions, quality management processes, and cross-functional integration with QTI, EWM, PTP, RTR, MDG, and Engineering systems.
The role is critical to stabilizing manufacturing operations, improving demand-to-supply visibility, strengthening in-process and finished-goods quality controls, reducing manual workarounds, and preparing the client for scalable plant rollouts. HVAC industry experience is a plus but is not mandatory.
Candidates must have at least 7 years of relevant experience. Strong communication skills are essential, including the ability to communicate effectively with business stakeholders, participate in meetings, and articulate business requirements.
This is not a support-only role. Candidates must have hands-on SAP implementation experience and be able to explain their specific responsibilities throughout the implementation process. The consultant will help define design requirements for standard SAP solutions and provide input on enhancements.
Process Scope
MRP and planning processes.
Production orders and shop floor execution.
BOMs, routings, work centers, production versions, and master data dependencies.
Make-to-order (MTO), configure-to-order (CTO), and engineer-to-order (ETO) manufacturing integration.
Production scheduling and capacity-related process support.
Integration with EWM staging, QM inspection and quality notifications, QTI demand signals, purchasing, costing, and MDG.
Business Process Responsibilities
Partner with Operations, Production Planning, Engineering, Supply Chain, and BPO/GPO stakeholders to identify and resolve process gaps.
Work on process standardization, adoption, and stabilization across existing SAP plants and future rollout locations.
Analyze MRP behavior, demand signals, production order execution, staging, and completion processes to identify improvement opportunities.
SAP Solution Responsibilities
Work with the team on SAP PP and QM configuration within Center of Excellence (COE) governance.
Support enhancements involving production order types, MRP parameters, routings, BOM dependencies, production versions, confirmations, backflushing, inspection lots, quality notifications, usage decisions, and related integration points.
Collaborate with QTI, EWM, PTP, RTR, MDG, technical, and integration teams to ensure complete end-to-end process design.
Challenge AMS or project team recommendations when they introduce unnecessary customization, operational risks, or long-term support complexity.
Stabilization and Continuous Improvement
Work with the team on root cause analysis for recurring planning, production execution, and quality-related issues.
Improve planning accuracy, shop floor transaction discipline, and visibility into production priorities.
Support initiatives involving WIP visibility, staged inventory, cycle counts, component consumption, inspection execution, nonconformance handling, and production scheduling improvements.
Help develop a roadmap covering short-term fixes, medium-term process improvements, and future-state capabilities.
Documentation and Testing
Help ensure FTP configuration documents, process flows, FS/TS inputs, test scripts, and training materials remain accurate and current.
Perform FTP testing for releases, fixes, enhancements, and plant rollouts.
Required Qualifications
7+ years of SAP PP, QM, or manufacturing functional experience.
Hands-on experience with production orders, MRP, BOMs, routings, work centers, confirmations, manufacturing execution, and SAP QM processes, including inspection lots, quality notifications, and usage decisions.
Experience supporting complex manufacturing environments.
Ability to troubleshoot production and planning issues across master data, configuration, transactions, and integrations.
Bachelor's degree required.
Strong verbal and written communication skills, including the ability to communicate business requirements and implementation decisions clearly.
Preferred Qualifications
SAP S/4HANA manufacturing experience, particularly in discrete manufacturing.
Experience with CTO, ETO, variant configuration, or project-based manufacturing.
Experience with EWM staging, SAP QM integration, shop floor mobility, MES, Teamcenter/PLM integration, or advanced planning tools.
SAP certification in PP, Manufacturing, or S/4HANA Production Planning.
Additional Note: HVAC industry experience is preferred but not mandatory. Candidates must demonstrate hands-on implementation experience rather than support-only experience.
