• Integrate systems engineering design characteristics, including reliability, maintainability, availability, and supportability, with logistics requirements to support system readiness and operational effectiveness.
• Assess system design, technical specifications, and performance requirements to identify product support resources, logistics needs, and sustainment considerations.
• Integrate the 12 Integrated Product Support elements with procurement, budgeting, and resource planning to develop comprehensive logistics strategies supporting system fielding and sustainment.
• Evaluate product support alternatives, identify sustainment risks and capability gaps, and recommend solutions to improve system availability, supportability, and life-cycle performance.
• Coordinate product support planning and execution across acquisition, engineering, logistics, operations, maintenance, supply chain, and program management stakeholders.
• Advise senior Government and contractor leadership on product support strategies, sustainment requirements, logistics planning, and resource allocation.
• Develop and review product support documentation, logistics plans, sustainment strategies, technical assessments, and executive-level decision materials.
• Assess logistics and sustainment activities for alignment with acquisition strategies, program objectives, technical requirements, and applicable policies.
• Collaborate with Government organizations, contractors, systems engineers, and other stakeholders to resolve complex product support and sustainment challenges.
• Identify opportunities to improve product support processes, reduce life-cycle risks, and enhance operational readiness and sustainment effectiveness.
• Independently lead complex product support initiatives and provide timely technical analysis and recommendations to support Government decision-making.
