Position Summary
The Vendor Performance Management (VPM) Coordinator II supports timely, specification-compliant delivery of project equipment and materials by coordinating supplier purchase-order execution, expediting, inspection, and quality follow-up. Embedded within project procurement teams, the position uses established VPM processes and systems to track fabrication progress, identify delivery and quality risks, and communicate corrective actions.
This Coordinator II role is adapted from the supplied Coordinator III description, with emphasis on assigned purchase orders and execution under guidance from project VPM leadership rather than ownership of the highest-criticality packages or department-wide training and process leadership. The precise level-II package criticality and approval authority should be confirmed with VPM management.
Key Responsibilities
Functional Responsibilities
- Monitor execution of assigned purchase orders, supplier schedules, fabrication milestones, and expected delivery dates.
- Review supplier progress information, identify discrepancies and delays, and provide timely status updates to project VPM and procurement leadership.
- Maintain accurate purchase-order and material status in Hexagon Smart Materials or the applicable project tracking system.
- Coordinate supplier and third-party inspection visits in line with inspection and test plans (ITPs), approved drawings, purchase orders, and project requirements.
- Coordinate assigned regional or international third-party inspection and expediting activities; track utilization and hours against approved allocations.
- Compile and review pre-inspection, pre-fabrication, expediting, inspection and release reports; distribute monthly or periodic progress updates.
- Support shop visits and supplier follow-up when directed; escalate schedule or fabrication issues for timely resolution.
- Identify risks associated with supplier documents, engineering returns, sub-suppliers, materials and fabrication progress; support recovery plans.
Leadership / Management Responsibilities
- Coordinate with Engineering, Buyers, Project VPM, Logistics, Materials Management, Quality and supplier contacts to resolve assigned order issues.
- Communicate identified supplier performance concerns, proposed mitigations, and scope deviations to the Project VPM Manager or designated lead.
- Support supplier and third-party agency performance evaluations covering delivery, quality, nonconformities and applicable ESG measures.
- Share lessons learned and support onboarding or knowledge transfer to team members as requested.
Compliance / Operational Responsibilities
- Follow Technip Energies HSES procedures, project-specific VPM plans, PPE requirements and stop-work authority during supplier and shop visits.
- Verify inspection activities align with the approved ITP, purchase order requirements and current technical documentation.
- Record and escalate supplier quality issues and nonconformities through approved systems such as Intelex and coordinate follow-up with QA/QC stakeholders.
- Maintain complete, accurate records in approved document and material management systems and comply with project reporting deadlines.

Preferred Qualifications
