- Maintain accountability for government-furnished equipment, including receipt, custody, location, condition, movement, inventories, transfers, and returns. Coordinate discrepancy resolution with property management.
- Use Costpoint to initiate and track requisitions for spares, repair parts, consumables, and supporting materials. Coordinate approvals, monitor delivery dates, and reconcile receipts with procurement and supply personnel.
- Identify shortages, long-lead items, and replenishment requirements. Provide equipment usage, failure, and consumption information to provisioning and logistics analysis personnel.
- Coordinate maintenance, repair actions, tools, test equipment, and replacement assets to maintain equipment availability.
- Ensure required operating instructions, maintenance procedures, parts information, and training are available before equipment use.
- Conduct logistics readiness assessments and report equipment status, support gaps, risks, recommended actions, and decisions required from program leadership.
- Coordinate site closure, equipment inspections, inventories, packing, return transportation, and restoration or turnover of test areas.
- Plan equipment repair, replenishment, reconfiguration, and movement for follow-on missions, including overlapping events and geographically dispersed operations.
- Develop logistics resource requirements and provide cost, schedule, and basis-of-estimate inputs for assigned program activities.
- Develop contingency plans and incorporate lessons learned into logistics support plans, procedures, and readiness preparations.
Minimum Required Qualifications- Typically requires a Bachelors degree and 12 - 15 years of prior relevant experience or Masters with 10 - 13 years of prior relevant experience.
- Relevant experience in maintenance, logistics and transportation documentation, maintenance documentation, or a related professional discipline.
- Experience independently developing complex technical documentation for defense, or similarly complex systems.
- Ability to support multiple programs, projects, or technical product lines concurrently specifications, maintenance information, technical source data, or similar documentation.
