Position Summary
The Lane Manager owns one modular production lane end to end — from the first station to final QC and load-out. This role is the single accountable owner for that lane's safety, takt adherence, quality, labor productivity, and on-time module delivery. Where the Shop Manager owns the steel discipline across the facility, the Lane Manager owns the flow of a specific product line through it. This is a production leadership role built around takt time, standard work, and relentless bottleneck removal.
Key Responsibilities
Takt & Throughput
• Own the lane's takt time. Balance work content across stations so every station finishes within takt, every cycle.
• Run the daily production board: modules released, cycle time by station, hours per module, variance to plan.
• Identify constraints — labor, material, tooling, drawing, or upstream trade — and clear or escalate them the same day.
• Manage station loading, crew assignment, and shift/overtime decisions within the lane's labor budget.
Quality
• Own first-time-through quality for the lane. Build in-station quality checks so defects are caught at the station that created them.
• Enforce work instructions, torque and test requirements, weld quality, hydro/pressure testing, cleanliness, and labeling standards.
• Own release readiness: coordinate QC hold points and final module inspection, with verification and sign-off performed by QA/QC personnel; compile and submit turnover documentation.
• Drive rework to root cause and close the loop with engineering and detailing.
Safety
• Own safety within the lane. Lead daily huddles, pre-task planning, and JHAs; enforce PPE, LOTO, hot work, and rigging requirements.
• Partner with the Safety Manager to engineer hazards out of station design and material handling.
People
• Lead, train, and develop the lane crew. Cross-train across stations to build flexibility and cover absence without losing takt.
• Set daily expectations, give direct feedback, and handle performance issues with HR support.
• Develop station leads into the next generation of lane leadership
Materials & Kitting
• Ensure every station is kitted ahead of need — no station stops for parts.
• Coordinate with purchasing, warehouse, and vendors on material timing, shortages, and substitutions.
• Manage lane-level WIP, staging footprint, and load-out sequencing to the delivery schedule.
Continuous Improvement
• Own standard work for every station in the lane; update it when the method changes.
• Run 5S, visual management, and kaizen activity within the lane; develop fixtures, jigs, and setup reductions.
• Feed buildability and DFMA lessons back to OSM Engineering so the next release is easier to build than the last.
