About this role
The role will establish cost-planning processes for the commercialization and mass production of the ZERO small satellite launch rocket. The person will help define how much the rocket should cost to produce in advance, based on business plans, sales prices, and required profit, rather than only collecting actual costs after production.
Responsibilities include setting target costs by launch vehicle and system based on the business plan, analyzing differences from estimated costs and the factors behind cost changes, and managing gaps against targets. The role will also manage projects aimed at achieving target costs, including planning cost-reduction measures, preparing execution plans, tracking progress and effects, managing issues, and coordinating with related departments.
The position will promote design changes, value engineering and value analysis, procurement improvements, productivity improvements, and optimization of make-or-buy decisions together with relevant teams. It will use bills of materials, quotation data, purchase-order data, and actual-cost data to build cost-planning processes, management indicators, and supporting tools.
The cost-planning function is currently being established. A key mission is therefore to build its processes and management foundation from the ground up, rather than only operating existing procedures. The work supports the ZERO rocket and the establishment of a business foundation for continuously providing space transportation services at appropriate prices. The role will develop a cost-planning system suited to rocket development and production processes while applying knowledge accumulated in areas such as automobiles.
