Purpose of the RoleCost Engineer is responsible to develop part level target costing, prepare detailed should cost estimate and apply it to achieve design to cost and source to cost; generate and syndicate cost reduction ideas through competition teardown, benchmarking, should cost analysis, VAVE, analytical levers etc and achieve aggregate cost reduction targets with engineering and purchase; work with vehicle module teams to achieve cost targets; cross deploy the ideas across TML needs; develop category specific key components or subassemblies knowledge repository covering competition, technology, products, manufacturing processes etc and apply it in developing cost models.Job Responsibility
  • Develop target costing and establish detailed should cost estimates for the components (Casting ,Forging/ Body & Trims/ Proprietary Mechanical /Proprietary Electrical Cost and Tooling)
Generate directional cost / reference cost / detail should cost targets for components based on various inputs available across product development stages
Mature the directional/reference cost targets of the components to detail should cost as the design evolves.
Independently create error free should cost models
Develop tooling cost estimates using should cost / reference cost models for calculating tooling should-cost, and provide inputs for Capex target setting
Establish target cost for the components
  • Ensure/ deliver design to cost and source to cost targets achievements for the component targets of programs.
Pursue component cost targets with engineering to achieve the design to cost targets for new programs
Perform cost driver analysis, design cost analysis on components to achieve design to cost targets.
Perform Supplier Quotation analysis with respect to should cost model and develop supplier negotiation fact pack for components
Perform Linear price performance models and generate opportunities to improve cost performance
Generate, provide valuation and syndicate cost reduction ideas based on should cost driver analysis in cost reduction workshops to achieve component subsystem cost reduction targets.
Benchmarking , competition should costing , best of Best cost driver analysis and its application into various projects to drive cost efficiencies
Perform data analysis and execute analytics based levers for idea generation (LPP, Weight Tree Cost Tree, Function Cost etc )
Prepare component/subsystem specific supplier negotiation fact pack and support purchase CTL in achievement of should cost with supplier
  • Develop component/subsystem knowledge repository covering competition, technology, products, processes etc and apply it in developing cost models
Prepare and syndicate cost models for new technology , supplier proprietary parts
Prepare scenarios on impact of choice of future technology on cost structure investment, supplier selection etc
Improve accuracy of should cost models
Prepare parametric cost models for part types to increase the coverage of parameterization
Perform TGR and TGW of design to cost and sourcing to cost targets
