Be Planet Costing Analyst

Be Planet Costing Model Development

Develop Be Planet costing model framework and analysis templates to identify cost impact at yarn, fabric, and finished good stages. Objective:
Work with RM Innovation, Product Sustainability and Packaging, Global Sourcing and Merchandise Planning to create a Be Planet costing model framework and analysis template that models the IMU impact of switching to new RM Innovation inputs at different stages of the value chain.

Areas of Support:

• Evaluate and build upon methodology completed to calculate be planet IMU impact.
• Create templates that allow business to understand the implication of different costs and utilization percentages at different stages of the supply chain.
• Determine how to incorporate for wastages at polymer, spinning, fabric and finished good stages.
• Determine what information leadership requires at each stage and create data visualization template for each phase of the supply chain.
• Determine how to share volume impacts with product sustainability and climate teams to input impact into their models/business reporting.
• Work with cross functional analysts to ensure inputs and methodologies are consistent.
• Work closely with Global Sourcing and Merchandise planning teams to ensure inputs and methodologies are consistent.

Develop Be Planet LRP contribution and reconciliation framework and templates. Objective:
Work with RM Innovation, Product Sustainability, Global Sourcing and Merchandise Planning to create a model to reserve annual Bps for increases coming from Be Planet innovations and redevelopments. Create model to determine long term, medium term and seasonal reconciliation of Be Planet cost impacts to understand if cost increases actualize to plan.

Areas of Support:

• Work with RM Innovation and Product Sustainability to determine forecast for future Be Planet cost impacts and improve and document process.
• Determine how to incorporate specific style conversions into Be Planet LRP forecast.
• Work with Merchandise Planning to ensure methodology fits into their annual LRP updates and reporting.
• Identify how to consistently reconcile annual or seasonal Be Planet adoption against LRP and separate Be Planet costs from other cost factors such as fit, RM fibre cost, FG costs etc.
• Create template to easily model different scenarios and impacts.

Provide ad hoc Be Planet cost/IMU analysis to support decision making. Objective:
Work with RM Innovation and Product Sustainability to determine the cost impact of be planet adoption on an ad hoc basis depending as required.

Areas of Support:

• Use developed templates to evaluate the cost impact of switching to a be planet innovation or alternative in a timely fashion as required.
• Prioritize urgent request to support with time sensitive leadership decision making.
• Work with Sourcing and merchandise planning to request data inputs required to provide cost impact analysis.
• Reach out to cross functional teams to provide required data inputs to support cost analysis.
• Provide cost impact analysis using identified templates and data visualization for different areas of the supply chain.
