Price Industries is looking for an experienced supply chain and ERP professional to own the Supply Chain domain of our enterprise ERP.
Price is North America’s leading manufacturer and distributor of air distribution products, and we are in the middle of an ERP transformation across our plants and business units.
The Solution Analyst serves as the functional expert for Supply Chain ERP systems, connecting business needs with practical system solutions. The role supports key functional decisions across planning, purchasing, supplier management, receiving, inventory, warehousing, shipping, logistics and trade compliance. Working closely with Supply Chain and plant leadership, IT and external implementation partners, the position drives consistent, efficient and scalable processes across plants and business units, from identifying opportunities through implementation and continuous improvement.
Goals of the Role:
Own the Supply Chain Solution

Own and maintain the end-to-end ERP solution for Supply Chain, including planning, purchasing, supplier management, receiving, inventory, warehousing, shipping, logistics, trade compliance and intercompany material flow. Establish functional priorities and recommend improvements that support business needs.


Serve as the primary Supply Chain functional expert and decision-maker for ERP design, processes and system functionality. Work with business stakeholders and IT to ensure solutions are practical, consistent and scalable across plants and business units, escalating decisions with broader business impacts when necessary.
Monitor solution performance, user adoption and key operational metrics to identify opportunities for continuous improvement. Communicate priorities, risks, recommendations and progress to business and IT leadership.
Design Processes That Work Across Plants


Work with Supply Chain leadership, Operational Business Owners and plant teams to design practical, efficient and consistent ERP processes that support business needs across all locations.


Translate business requirements into functional ERP solutions, prioritizing standard system capabilities over customization. Evaluate site-specific requests, recommend improvements and escalate decisions with broader business impacts when necessary.
Ensure Supply Chain processes integrate effectively with Sales, Engineering, Manufacturing, Finance and Quality. Maintain accurate process documentation, system requirements and key design decisions.
Manage Supply Chain ERP Priorities and Delivery


Manage and prioritize Supply Chain ERP issues, enhancements and system improvements, ensuring business needs and operational priorities are addressed.
Coordinate with IT, Business Analysts, plant teams and other stakeholders to support system development, testing, implementation and issue resolution.
Lead functional testing, troubleshoot system issues and identify long-term solutions. Support and coach team members on problem-solving, documentation and ERP best practices.
Prepare Data and Plants for Go-Live


Work with data owners and plant teams to ensure Supply Chain master data is accurate, consistent and ready for ERP implementation, including supplier information, part records, purchasing parameters, inventory and planning data.


Support data validation, system cutover, go-live and post-implementation stabilization. Coordinate issue resolution and ensure a smooth transition to ongoing operational support.
Required:


Bachelor’s degree or diploma in Supply Chain Management, Business Administration, Information Technology, Industrial Engineering or a related discipline.
5+ years in supply chain operations, ERP functional analysis, business systems analysis or solution ownership in a manufacturing environment.
Demonstrated knowledge of:

Planning and replenishment
Procurement
Inventory management and warehousing
Inter-site supply

Hands-on experience with an enterprise ERP platform such as IFS Cloud, SAP, Oracle or Microsoft Dynamics 365.
Experience taking functional design through configuration, testing, deployment and post-go-live stabilization.
Working knowledge of how integrations, reporting, master data, role-based security and controls affect end-to-end Supply Chain processes.
Ability to work through complex processes, data and system behaviour and land on practical decisions.
Confidence to challenge assumptions, drive decisions and build agreement across plants and functions.
Able to handle critical production issues alongside longer-term roadmap work and stay transparent about where things stand.
Experience with JIRA or a comparable backlog tool, Microsoft 365, process mapping and data analysis.

A Candidate Could Differentiate Themselves With:

IFS Cloud experience (strongly preferred).
SQL or other data-querying experience.
Credentials such as ASCM CPIM or CSCP, CBAP, ITIL, Lean Six Sigma or IFS certification.

Why This Role Matters:
The decisions this role influences affect material flow, plant execution and customer service across a growing manufacturing business, and how well our ERP scales as more plants go live on it.
Success is measured in the plants. We expect to see better material availability, inventory accuracy, supplier performance and planning reliability, with fewer manual workarounds, duplicate processes, recurring defects and plant-specific customizations.
