  • Baseline Test Plan (BTP) Oversight
    • Track execution of the BTP Performance Verification Test (PVT) scorecard, ensuring every program requirement is verified, documented, and traceable.
  • Metrics & Safety Support
    • Provide requirement-status metrics and ship-safety metrics for readiness reviews; monitor and manage red-line reviews within the tools.
  • Stakeholder Collaboration
    • Engage Navy counterparts, ARCI teams, and external partners throughout the project lifecycle; work with the Navy on-site team to secure test approvals and support.
