What you'll do...

•  Support development and evaluation of an AI-enabled sourcing tool that brings together relevant information from company data sources to help supply chain managers prepare for sourcing decisions.

•  Help explore how data and AI can support vendor selection for quote requests, comparison of supplier quotes, and identification of opportunities to reduce total cost to Ford.

•  Work with cross-functional Ford teams to understand user needs, business processes, data considerations, and potential tool capabilities.

•  Contribute to SOURCE, software intended to help purchasing teams organize and track sourcing activity, coordinate interactions with vendors, and manage information associated with part numbers and sourcing packages.
