• Support customer delivery: Coordinate shipment readiness and quality source-inspection activities, and assist Program Management in resolving customer units that cannot be repaired as planned.

• Apply inventory controls: Support government-owned property and serialization requirements, submit project transfers for approval, and work within project-based inventory controls and applicable project abbreviations.

• Plan ahead for demand: Analyze material requirements for pre-purchase and repair inventory, support related requisitions and purchase orders, monitor shelf-life inventory, and identify repair candidates for the monthly list of ready-to-work units.
