He/she will be responsible to verify completeness of the BOM’s before officializing it in the PLM system and communicating it towards the ERP system (OCM).

Assure the necessary product baselines (configuration) will be registered during the development and validation of the product. These baselines are linked to the development process (DDQS) defined by Thales.

He/she coordinates and monitors the execution of E- & M-BOM changes from development, verification and validation up to industrialization.
