This role is responsible for designing and enabling make-part earned value (EV) capabilities across the Material & Labor Earned Value (MEV) solution, with a focus on labor tracking, shop floor execution, and performance measurement.

The analyst will bridge SAP production execution, labor costing, and EVMS (Cobra) to ensure accurate program performance reporting in a highly regulated NS2 Gov Cloud environment. Key Responsibilities Design and support make-part earned value (EV) processes for in-house manufacturing and MRO operations Enable labor tracking and performance measurement across production and repair activities Develop time-phased labor Estimates to Complete (ETC) aligned to contract Period of Performance (PoP) Define and support integration between SAP S/4HANA and Cobra (EVMS) for labor cost and performance data Build labor tracking and performance reports, including: Hours, quantities, and standard vs actuals BCWP, BCWS, ACWP CPI, SPI Support production order lifecycle: Creation release confirmation completion settlement Capture and analyze: Actual labor hours (shop floor confirmations) Standard hours (HPU - Hours Per Unit) Variances between planned vs actual performance Support repair, rework, and overhaul processes: Split orders Rework loops Scrap and excess material handling Build and maintain make-part cost baselines, including: Raw materials NPA (Non-Productive Activity) SRR (Supplier Resource Requirements) Vendor processing / subcontract operations Develop simulation and "what-if" capabilities: Model labor and cost scenarios without impacting production baselines Design WBS-, routing-, and order-level data models to support: Roll-up / roll-down reporting Drill-down into labor and cost drivers Ensure compliance with ITAR, FAR, and DFARS requirements Support UAT, reconciliation, and validation of labor and EV data Required Qualifications 10+ years of experience as an SAP Business Analyst or Functional Consultant Strong hands-on experience with SAP S/4HANA, including: PP (Production Planning) PM (Plant Maintenance) - especially for MRO scenarios CO (Controlling - product costing, order costing) MM (Materials Management) FI (Financial Accounting) Experience with PMMO (Project Manufacturing Management & Optimization) and/or GPD (Group Procurement Data) Deep understanding of: Production order lifecycle and costing Shop floor execution and confirmations Labor tracking and standard vs actual performance Proven experience supporting Earned Value Management (EVMS) in A&D or government contracting environments Experience integrating SAP with EV tools such as Cobra Strong understanding of: Labor cost collection and allocation ETC / EAC forecasting WBS-based financial structures U.S. Citizenship required Preferred Qualifications Experience with MRO / Aftermarket operations in Aerospace & Defense Familiarity with ITAR, FAR, and DFARS compliance requirements Experience working in SAP NS2 Secure Government Cloud (Gov Cloud) Experience with SAP S/4HANA RISE transformations Knowledge of advanced manufacturing scenarios: Make-to-Engineer (MTE) Engineer-to-Order (ETO) Experience with SAP Analytics tools (SAC, BW/4HANA) or external BI platforms Domain Expertise Requirements Manufacturing & Routing Deep understanding of: Shop floor routing and operations Work centers and capacity planning Production orders and confirmations Experience with standard hours (HPU) and performance benchmarking Labor & Performance Tracking Design and support labor reporting including: Actual vs planned hours Earned value metrics (BCWP, BCWS, ACWP) Performance indices (CPI, SPI) Understand how labor drives earned value in manufacturing and repair contexts Repair, Rework & Scrap Analysis (MRO Focus) Capture and model: Repair cycles and inspection-driven work Rework loops and split production orders Scrap, excess, and unplanned labor impacts Understand how these affect: Cost performance Schedule performance EAC projections Make Part Cost Baselines Build baseline cost models for in-house manufacturing including: Raw materials Labor standards Overhead External processing Align baselines with EV methodologies and contract structures Simulation & What-If Modeling Develop scenario modeling capabilities: Labor rate changes Productivity impacts Schedule delays Enable decision-making without impacting production or EV baselines Earned Value & Program Controls Strong understanding of EVMS concepts: BCWP (Earned Value) BCWS (Planned Value) ACWP (Actual Cost) CPI / SPI Ability to translate shop floor activity into EV metrics Experience aligning manufacturing execution with program financial performance Soft Skills Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities Ability to bridge manufacturing, finance, and IT stakeholders Excellent communication skills across shop floor, program controls, and leadership Experience working in large, complex transformation programs Why This Role

This role is critical to ensuring that labor execution on the shop floor-especially in MRO and aftermarket operations-accurately translates into earned value and program performance metrics. You'll directly impact how manufacturing efficiency, repair complexity, and workforce productivity are measured and reported in a mission-critical A&D program.
