About your past
Tell me about a time you had to escalate a supplier issue. How did you decide it was time, and how did it go?
What they are checking: Whether they know when to escalate and do it with facts and options, not just complaints.
You'll work closely with the program manager, operations and procurement. How do you keep everyone on the same page?
What they are checking: Whether they can coordinate across teams so that nobody is surprised by a change.
Tell me about a process you improved in a past supply chain role.
What they are checking: Whether they help develop the program strategy instead of only reacting to each shipment.
What would you do
A transformer the owner is supplying is going to arrive three weeks late, and our Excellerate production schedule depends on it. What do you do first?
What they are checking: Whether they act fast to reshuffle production and communicate, rather than just reporting the delay.
Equipment arrives and doesn't match the spec. Walk me through what happens next.
What they are checking: Whether they handle receiving issues by documenting, notifying the right people and protecting the schedule.
How do you handle talking directly with a customer about a delay on equipment they supplied?
What they are checking: Whether they can be timely and professional with clients when the problem is partly the client's own.
Two projects both need the same production slot and both have critical delivery dates. How would you help decide?

About the work
In your own words, what is owner furnished equipment, and why does it create different risks than material we buy ourselves?
What they are checking: Whether they understand that OFE schedules and quality sit with suppliers and owners we do not fully control.
We handle OFE like switchgear, bus duct and transformers. What experience do you have with electrical equipment like that?
What they are checking: Whether they know the long lead times and specs of the equipment they would be tracking.
How would you track specs, shipments and schedules for OFE across several projects at once?
What they are checking: Whether they have a real system for many moving parts instead of relying on memory and email.
What reports or dashboards would you build to show the health of the OFE program?
What they are checking: Whether they think about what leaders need to see early enough to act.
