At this level, senior managers are responsible for developing long-term strategies that align manufacturing and production capabilities with the company's overarching goals. They play a pivotal role in shaping the organisation’s approach to innovation, technology adoption, and resource management, ensuring that manufacturing and production systems remain efficient and competitive in the global market. Their decisions focus on high-level areas such as capacity planning, supply chain optimisation, and the integration of sustainable practices in manufacturing and production.
