Role Overview

We are looking for a hands-on SAP S/4HANA PP/DS Technical Consultant with strong configuration, build, troubleshooting, and implementation experience in Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling.

This role requires someone who can work directly in the SAP system, configure PP/DS functionality, support integration with core PP, SD, and AVC, analyze planning issues, resolve defects, support testing cycles, and help stabilize the solution through go-live.

The ideal candidate should be comfortable working with business users, functional leads, technical teams, and offshore/onshore stakeholders, but the primary expectation is hands-on execution rather than high-level advisory.

• Configure and support SAP S/4HANA embedded PP/DS functionality in a greenfield implementation environment.
• Perform hands-on configuration for: Production planning, Detailed scheduling, Finite capacity planning, Planning heuristics, Scheduling board setup, Resource and capacity modeling, Production constraints, Setup times and changeovers.
• Work on integration between PP/DS and core SAP PP, including MRP, planned orders, production orders, BOMs, routings, work centers, and resource/capacity master data.
• Support integration of PP/DS with sales demand from SD and configurable product inputs from SAP AVC.
• Translate business planning requirements into SAP configuration and executable planning logic.
• Analyze current Infor planning processes and support the mapping of those processes into SAP S/4HANA PP/DS.
• Build and validate planning scenarios for make-to-order, configure-to-order, and make-to-stock environments.
• Troubleshoot PP/DS planning issues, scheduling failures, capacity mismatches, order sequencing issues, master data gaps, and integration defects.
• Support master data validation related to materials, BOMs, routings, work centers, resources, production versions, calendars, and planning-relevant parameters.
• Work with business users and functional teams during workshops, requirement clarification sessions, defect reviews, and solution walkthroughs.
• Prepare and execute test scenarios for SIT, UAT, regression testing, integration testing, and mock cutover cycles.
• Support defect triage, root-cause analysis, issue resolution, and retesting.
• Work closely with technical teams for interfaces, reports, enhancements, data migration, and integration-related dependencies.
• Support data migration validation for planning and manufacturing master data.
• Assist with go-live readiness activities, cutover planning, hypercare, and post-go-live stabilization.
• Document configuration decisions, test results, issue resolutions, and operational handover notes.

• 8+ years of SAP experience with strong hands-on experience in SAP PP and PP/DS.
• Practical implementation experience with SAP S/4HANA embedded PP/DS.
• Strong configuration experience in: PP/DS planning board, Detailed scheduling, Finite capacity planning, Heuristics, Production planning integration, Resource and capacity setup, Order scheduling and sequencing.
• Strong understanding of SAP PP processes, including MRP, production orders, planned orders, BOMs, routings, work centers, production versions, and shop-floor execution flows.
• Experience supporting manufacturing planning in discrete manufacturing environments.
• Ability to troubleshoot planning, scheduling, and capacity issues directly in SAP.
• Experience working with complex manufacturing environments involving product variability, configuration, constraints, and frequent planning changes.
• Hands-on experience supporting SIT, UAT, cutover, go-live, and hypercare phases.
• Ability to work with business users to understand planning issues and convert them into SAP configuration or process changes.
• Strong defect resolution, testing, and documentation skills.

• Experience with configure-to-order or make-to-order manufacturing environments.
• Exposure to SAP AVC integration with PP/DS or PP.
• Experience with Infor to SAP S/4HANA migration programs.
• Experience in consumer goods, industrial manufacturing, or other discrete manufacturing environments.
• Understanding of how configurable products impact planning, scheduling, capacity, and production execution.
• Experience working in global delivery models with onsite/offshore teams.
• Ability to support both project implementation and post-go-live production stabilization.
