Erp Implementation Project Manager Jobs in Auburn, AL

Neptune Technology Group is a leading manufacturer of advanced water metering and utility management solutions, serving utilities and communities since 1892. With manufacturing operations across the US and Mexico and distribution reaching into Canada, Neptune is committed to precision, reliability, and sustainability in managing the world’s most critical resource: water.

The ERP Configuration Specialist – Supply Chain will be responsible for the configuration, support, and optimization of supply chain-related ERP modules within Neptune’s SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud environment. This includes Materials Management, Inventory Management, Warehouse Management, Procurement, Supply Chain Planning, and Quality Management. 

 This mid-level role requires a deep understanding of end-to-end supply chain workflows – from procurement and goods receipt through production planning, inventory management, and order fulfillment. The specialist will serve as the functional bridge between supply chain operations and IT, translating business requirements into SAP configurations that drive process consistency and operational efficiency across Neptune’s US, Mexico, and Canada operations. 

This role does not carry direct reports but operates cross-functionally with supply chain, manufacturing, finance, and IT teams, and collaborates with external implementation partners during the SAP S/4HANA transition.

•  Maintain supplier collaboration configurations including outline agreements, scheduling agreements, and vendor evaluation frameworks.
•  Support integration between SAP Procurement and downstream financial processes including GR/IR clearing, invoice matching, and payment processing.

 Integration & Cross-Functional Collaboration

•  Partner with Manufacturing, Finance, and Sales teams to ensure supply chain ERP configuration supports end-to-end process integrity from demand planning through order fulfillment.
•  Collaborate with IT on integrations between SAP and external systems, including MS Dynamics 365 (CRM), legacy QAD and SAP ECC during the transition period, and BTP Integration Services.
•  Support integration touchpoints between SAP Supply Chain modules and SAP Field Service Management (FSM) for spare parts and service order fulfillment.
•  Participate in design reviews and fit-to-standard workshops during the SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud implementation to represent supply chain configuration requirements.

 Testing, Data Migration & Go-Live Support

•  Develop and execute test scripts for supply chain scenarios across SIT and UAT cycles, including procure-to-pay, inventory movements, MRP runs, and warehouse operations.
•  Support data migration activities for supply chain master data objects including Material Master, Vendor Master, open Purchase Orders, and inventory balances from QAD (US/MX) and SAP ECC 6.0 (Canada).
•  Participate in cutover planning and execution, including inventory freeze, physical count coordination, and post-go-live ramp-up monitoring.
•  Provide hypercare support during and after go-live, resolving supply chain issues and ensuring business continuity across all operating regions.

 User Enablement & Documentation

•  Develop and maintain configuration documentation, process design documents, and system guides for supply chain modules.
•  Deliver training and support to key users and business process owners across Procurement, Warehousing, and Planning functions.
•  Leverage SAP S/4HANA Learning Center resources and WalkMe digital adoption tools to support end-user enablement and reduce training dependency.
•  Monitor supply chain system health, identify gaps, and proactively recommend configuration improvements aligned with SAP best practices.

•  Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management, Information Systems, Business Administration, or a related field.
•  5–7 years of experience in ERP configuration, support, or business analysis with a focus on supply chain or operations.
